    Extractions: Resources The area now called Nubia extends along the Nile from the South of Aswan to the town of Dabba, near the Fourth cataract, linking Egypt - i.e. the northern part of the Nile valley - to the Sudan in the South. The name Nubia is first mentioned in Strabo's Geographica ; the Greek author is believed to have visited Egypt c. 29 BC. The etymology of the name Nubia is uncertain, but some researchers believe it is derived from the Ancient Egyptian nbu, meaning gold, referring to the gold mines for which Nubia was famous. The name does not appear in Ancient Egyptian texts. They refer to Nubia generally as Ta-Seti, meaning "Land of the Bow", a clear reference to the weapon favoured by the Nubians. Prehistory

    Extractions: The Book Store Susu Economics: The History of Pan-African Trade, Commerce, Money and Wealth Part 1 Paul Alfred Barton Format ISBN Price Electronic Book Paperback (5x8) The book, Susu Economics: The History of Pan-African (Black) Trade, Commerce, Money and Wealth is one of the most thorough and exciting books which deals with the development of culture and civilization in ancient and prehistoric Africa, and how trade and commerce contributed to the migrations of Africans worldwide and the establishment of cultures and civilizations from the Sahara to India and China, around the globe to ancient Olmec Mexico. This massive trade network contributed to building the wealth and influence of many ancient African kingdoms and empires such as ancient Egypt, Nubia-Kush, Wagadu-Ghana, Nok, Punt, Zimbabwe and many others. African wealth and influence also spread to parts of Europe when Africans settled parts of Ireland and England as well as Iberia, hundreds of years before Christ. The book examines the trade goods used and commodities traded for thousands of years. Paul Alfred Barton is a direct descendant of Gyorgis, an Ethiopian Lady of royal background who migrated from Gondar, Ethiopia to the Caribbean during the 1830's. Barton is also the descendant of a Black Carib (Garifuna) great grandfather. The Garifunas are the descendants of ancient African merchants and mariners who had established trading relations with the Americas, hundreds of years before Christ.

    Extractions: Executive Intelligence Review June 9, 1995, pp. 19-27 The rich history of Sudan presents many paradoxes, primary among them, the paradox of its relationship to Egypt. Throughout ancient history, the culture of dynastic Egypt and that of the Nubians were intertwined, at times in conflict, at times at peace. During the periods of peaceful coexistence, if not actual alliances, both cultures prospered, the arts and literature flourished, regardless of which nation was the ruler. It was in fact under the reign of a Sudanese Pharoah, Piankhy (or Piye), in the XXVth dynasty, that Egyptian culture, which had fallen into decay, was renewed; monuments were built, and a great age in sculpture was inaugurated. When, however, outside forces invaded, as in the case of the Assyrians, Egypt and Sudan were set against each other. Egypt's continuing efforts to subjugate Sudan led to repeated invasions and conquests, each time driving the Sudanese power into retreat, in rump kingdoms, moving further south. The Sudanese, regardless of the pressures, held

    A brief overview and gallery tour of the Nubian collection at the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology.  
    http://www.museum.upenn.edu/new/exhibits/online_exhibits/egypt/nubiagallery.shtm
    
    Extractions: The University of Pennsylvania's (UPM) Egyptian collection contains one of the United States' largest collections of material from ancient Nubia, particularly the region of Lower Nubia, which lies immediately south of Egypt in what today is modern Sudan. Several early UPM expeditions excavated a number of Nubian sites in Lower Nubia. A civilization at least as old as that of Egypt to the north, Nubia has its own distinctive series of cultures lasting more than 3000 years, but the northern part of Nubia was always in close interaction with Egypt, and its art and religion were at times influenced by Egypt. The statue of the scribe Amenemhat (left) shows a man who looks very Egyptian. He wears the short kilt and shoulder length wig typical of an Egyptian courtier; however, Amenemhat was a native Nubian who served as a scribe under Queen Hatshepsut (1479-1458 B.C.). Images such as this show close interaction between Nubia and Egypt during the New Kingdom, a period in which much of Nubia was ruled by Egypt. This statue was found in the temple of

Figure 2: Map of Nubia Nubia is located in today's southern Egypt and northern Sudan. This land has one of the harshest climates in the world. The temperatures are high throughout most of the year, and rainfall is infrequent. The banks of the Nile are narrow in much of Nubia, making farming difficult. Yet, in antiquity, Nubia was a land of great natural wealth, of gold mines, ebony, ivory and incense which was always prized by her neighbors. Nubia is the homeland of Africa's earliest black culture with a history which can be traced from 3100 B.C. onward through Nubian monuments and artifacts, as well as written records from Egypt and Rome.

A Collaborative Production of The Research Archives of the Oriental Institute The Oriental Institute Museum The Oriental Institute Museum Education Program Recommended Reading is a guide to introductory readings on the peoples and cultures of the ancient Near East. Some of the material included here ( Ancient Mesopotamia ) was originally published as the Resource Guide included with one of the three volumes ( Life in Ancient Egypt, Life in Ancient Nubia, Life in Ancient Mesopotamia ) of the Guides for Teachers Based on the Collections and Resources of the Oriental Institute Museum, University of Chicago (Chicago, 1996), produced by the Museum Education Program with the generous support of a grant from the Polk Bros. Foundation. We have made some additions and corrections, and slightly altered the structure of that Resources Guide for the purposes of providing this information on-line, and we expect to add additional material as needed. The Egyptian and Nubian lists have been developed by Emily Teeter in the course of many years of teaching and lecturing and will change as new material is published.
