A kingdom powerful enough to conquer Egypt. An empire so vast it may have been the largest on Earth. And a civilization so thoroughly erased that most people alive today have never even heard its name.

Beneath the scorching sands of northern Sudan lies a buried city, a temple burned to the ground, and a queen's name locked away in a single broken piece of stone. What you're about to discover will change how you see ancient Africa forever.

Ancient Nubia takes you inside a real, ongoing archaeological excavation, where a temple dedicated to the god Amun has been unearthed after two thousand years, revealing smashed statues, a stolen altar, and unmistakable evidence of a violent invasion. Piece by piece, you'll follow the archaeologists as they turn scattered fragments into forensic proof, and silence into a story.

Few people know that Nubian kings once ruled Egypt as legitimate pharaohs for over a century. Fewer still know that a one-eyed Nubian queen personally stopped a Roman invasion in its tracks, or that Sudan holds nearly three times as many pyramids as Egypt itself. The hidden truth behind Egypt's greatest rival has been waiting in the sand.

Inside this book, you'll discover:

- How Nubia built an empire stretching from Khartoum to Palestine
