For centuries Egypt ruled the Nile above the cataracts. Then Kush rose, and its kings marched north, took Memphis and Thebes and ruled as the 25th Dynasty until Assyria drove them back. They did not vanish. They built pyramids, ruled from Meroe, answered to ruling queens called Kandakes, and faced down the armies of Rome.
This illustrated history follows the evidence from Kerma to the fall of Meroe: stelae and temples, gold and iron, homes and food, burial and gods, the unread Meroitic script and the story of rediscovery. It treats competing theories fairly and keeps them separate from what inscriptions, outside writers and excavations can prove.
Each of its seventy chapters ends with The Historian's Verdict, which grades what is well established, probable, disputed or unknown. Appendices give a timeline, the people in the book, a reader's guide to the evidence, a glossary, words and names, and places to visit.
The evidence is laid out. The reader decides.
