About
Quick facts: The museum holds one of the largest collections of artifacts from ancient Nubia and the Kingdom of Meroe, showcasing a history that spans millennia. Many unique pieces, such as golden jewelry and funerary statues, reveal the splendor of the lesser-known African kingdoms.
Highlights: Inside, an impressive life-size replica of the Temple of Amun at Kawa transports you to ancient Egypt, with details that seem to come to life. Few exhibitions have so many original objects from Ancient Sudan, such as the striking stelae with inscriptions in lost languages.
