Description

This comprehensive collection brings together six decades of scholarly research by Sir Laurence Kirwan on the history and archaeology of the mid 1st millennium AD in the Middle Nile Valley. The 25 studies, including one previously unpublished work, trace Kirwan's groundbreaking fieldwork conducted between 1929 and 1936 and his lifelong investigation into the transformation from the pagan Kushite kingdom to the medieval Nubian states of Nobadia, Makuria and Alodia. The papers examine the critical 6th century AD conversion to Christianity and offer essential insights into this pivotal period of Nubian cultural and religious transition. Originally scattered across numerous academic publications, these studies are now gathered in one authoritative volume, making Kirwan's influential contributions to Nubian history and archaeology accessible to researchers, students and scholars of ancient and medieval African civilisation.
