This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. Situated in present-day northern Sudan and southern Egypt, the ancient Nubian Kingdom of Kush thrived along the Nile Valley, marking an early cradle of civilization. Around 2450 to 1450 BC, the city-state of Kerma emerged as a dominant political force, reigning over the Nile Valley between the first and fourth cataracts—a territory comparable to Egypt. Recognized by the Egyptians as "Kush," Kerma engaged in intermittent warfare, trade, and cultural exchange with Egypt over the ensuing centuries. During the New Kingdom period (1550–1070 BC), Egypt exerted control over much of Nubia, but following Egypt's decline in the Late Bronze Age collapse, the Kushites restored their empire in Napata (modern Karima, Sudan). While sharing cultural traits with Egypt, Kush developed its own distinct civilization. King Kashta peacefully ascended to the throne of Upper Egypt, and his daughter, Amenirdis, became the Divine Adoratrice of Amun in Thebes.
