The Forgotten First Century Christians in the Nubian Kingdom recovers the overlooked history of Nubian Christianity, which emerged along the Nile River in present-day southern Egypt and northern Sudan as early as the first century A.D. Far from being a peripheral imitation of Mediterranean Christianity, Nubian Christianity developed as a vibrant, distinctive African tradition that blended indigenous cultural elements with Coptic, Byzantine, and other Christian influences. The book traces the rise, flourishing, and eventual decline of Christian Nubia across nearly a millennium, from its origins through trade routes and missionary activity to its gradual disappearance by the fifteenth century.
