Egypt: Nubia In Modern And Ancient Times
history of nubia from ancient times to the present, plus essays on the geography of nubia, its political divisions and names over time, and its culture and traditions; from TourEgypt.
http://touregypt.net/historicalessays/nubia.htm

Extractions: Nubia Nubia is located in today's southern Egypt and northern Sudan. The modern inhabitants of southern Egypt and Sudan still refer to themselves as Nubians. They speak the Nubian language as well as Arabic. Thousands of Nubians from the north were forced to relocate from their endangered homelands to be resettled in Egypt and Sudan. This land has one of the harshest climates in the world. The temperatures are high throughout most of the year, and rainfall is infrequent. The banks of the Nile are narrow in much of Nubia, making farming difficult. Yet, in antiquity, Nubia was a land of great natural wealth, of gold mines, ebony, ivory and incense which was always prized by her neighbors. Nubia is the homeland of Africa's earliest black culture with a history which can be traced from 3100 BC onward through Nubian monuments and artifacts, as well as written records from Egypt and Rome. The land of Nubia is a desert divided by the river Nile. For want of water and rich soil, most of Nubia has never been able to support a large population for long periods. However, some of Africa's greatest civilizations emerged here, centers of achievement whose existence was based on industry and trade. Because they did not write their own languages until very late in ancient times, we know these centers and their people largely through their archaeology and what the Egyptians and Greeks said about them.

The Enemies Of Ancient Egypt
as well as constantly repeated element of Egyptian iconography throughout the empiresancient history. as well as in the ritual site at Mirgissa in nubia.
http://www.touregypt.net/featurestories/enemies.htm

Extractions: by Troy Fox The earliest depictions we have of Egyptian kings portray the motif of prostrate foreigners as a symbol of Egyptian supremacy over the rest of mankind. For example, the Narmer Palette shows the king in his efforts to rid the world of such aberrations as the "vile Asiatic". Here, we find the trampling of the "Nine Bows", as the Egyptian referred to their enemies, as a vivid embodiment of the king's supremacy over foreigners (and sometimes even other Egyptians). The figure "nine" represented three times three, which was the "plurality of Pluralities", thus designating the entirety of all enemies. And later, during the New Kingdom , the Sphinx Stele of Amenhotep II provides a striking textual description of the Egyptian King smiting his enemies: "He bound the heads of the Nine Bows... He has gathered them all into his fist, his mace has crashed upon their heads..."

Dialog On Origin Of Name Nubia
Is the name modern or date back to ancient history? Does the name apply tosome parts of nubia or was it more extensively applied in former times?
http://www.hartford-hwp.com/archives/32/004.html

Extractions: [Text slighly edited. HB] All netters (maskag jelo) There is no consensus among historians about the origin of the word "Nubia" and how the area that is known today as Nubia has come to acquire its name. Is the name "modern" or date back to ancient history? Does the name apply to some parts of Nubia or was it more extensively applied in former times? Has it any relation to Kush or Meroites? The word Nubia conjures up all these and more nostalgia in the mind of many, particularly, Nubians. To them it means identity, past glories, present dilemma, and a hopefull and glorious future. How did the area come to be known as Nubia, and why did it persist until now? This is important because some historians claim that there is no such name as Nubia, and that "Kush" is the only name that was known to ancient people. Then where did it come from? Certainly, it has't come out of the blue. It must have an origin, especialy since it applies to an area with a distinctive culure and language and a civilisation that dates back to the dawn of history, a civilization of its own, not isolated, but influencing and getting influenced by others. To give a tentative answer to these questions, here is a rundown of opinions about the name Nubia, it's origins and meaning:-
