Episode 6.1 - Egypt...and the other land of the Nile
Around the same time the ancestors of the ancient Egyptians began to settle along the banks of the upper Nile, the ancestors of another people began to settle along the banks of the great river to their south.
These people were the Nubians, and early on they established a civilization as advanced and as sophisticated as the great northern neighbor.
In this episode, we will introduce these ancient and relatively unknown people, how and when their civilization began, how they came to be dominated and overshadowed by the ancient Egyptians for the better part of a millennia, before regaining their independence, and turning the tables of history.
