Daily Life of the #Nubians (Greenwood Press Daily Life Through History Series): Until recently little was known about #ancientNubia and day-to-day lives of the Nubian people aside from knowing it was a #civilization contemporary with, distinct from, and living under the shadow of #AncientEgypt. #Nubia existed from about 3500-300 BCE, close to 3,000 years. Thanks to recent massive #archaeological surveys, we now have a much clearer picture of #Nubiancivilization, what they ate, how they dressed, how they cared for their dead, their #military triumphs and defeats, where their cities were built, and what they looked like. Of course they underwent dramatic changes over time, and these are noted where appropriate.
