The Story behind the Grave Secrets: Tales of the Ancient Nubians exhibition. Learn how The KNH Centre in Manchester and the National History Museum in London are helping to reveal more about the lives of the ancient Nubians.
There are many gaps in our understanding of the ancient Nubian civilisation, but much can still be learned from the major archaeological excavations of that country that occurred some hundred years ago. The archaeological finds, skeletal specimens and excavation reports of those expeditions have still not been fully analysed.
The KNH Centre in Manchester and the National History Museum in London are re-evaluating material from major archaeological excavations and by the utilisation of modern scientific techniques are helping to reveal more about the lives of the ancient people who lived along the banks of the river Nile in antiquity.
