Interesting, can't say I totally agree but I can see from a depiction perspective. How they'd match to a certain degree. Since they are without the obvious South Sudanese traditional clothing, markings, jewelry. The one farming like I mentioned before looks like what a Nuer looks, like. But the other one resembles more those lower South into Egypt. IMO [QUOTE]Originally posted by the lioness,: [b]The kingdom of Kush, centered at Kerma, has been the most dominant entity in the early history of Sudan. However, evidence indicates that Kush was not the only state in the region. Other smaller polities have coexisted with the Kushite kingdom. The earliest evidence of these polities comes from the inscriptions of Harkhuf, who served as the Egyptian governor of Upper Egypt during the Old Kingdom. The inscriptions, found on his tomb, tell of an explorative expedition that he undertook deep into Sudan.[/b] [IMG]http://www.ancientsudan.org/images/01_history_chiefdoms.jpg[/IMG] history_03_cheif.htm[/QUOTE]That would make sense given how many other African ethnic groups reside/d along the Nile Valley. [QUOTE]Originally posted by the lioness,: These various other groups of Nubians Wawat, Irtjet, Setju, Yam, etc If you don't like the word just use "Nehesey" that is the Egyptian word meaning virtually the same thing, the foreigners to the south, all of the groups there [/QUOTE]I'm not seeing much information about the word "Nehesy" meaning foreigners to the south. I mean Punt was further south/east, but they weren't considered foreigners. At least not from what I've read. [/QB][/QUOTE]
