The
class will reveal one of the most dynamic, yet little known cultures of the ancient
world. We will explore the geography and
archaeology of Nubia, Egypt’s neighbor to the south and home to a series of
remarkable and innovative civilizations. It will cover the period from the earliest inhabitants of the Nile
Valley (Paleolithic through Neolithic and domestication of plants and animals),
and continue until the advent of Christianity.
