The term Nubian describes an ethnic group that originated in modern-day Sudan and Egypt. Today, people of Nubian descent primarily live in Sudan, and inhabit the region between Wadi Halfa in the north and Al Dabbah in the south. The main Nubian groups from north to south are the Halfaweyen, Sikut, Mahas, and Dongola. They speak a variety of Nilo-Saharan languages in the Nubian language family. Nubian people have a long history dating back to dynastic Egypt, and Nubians even founded a dynasty that ruled upper and lower Egypt during the 8th century BCE. Ancient Nubians were famous for their skill and precision with the bow.
Nubians are the people that inhabited the region south of Egypt, known today as Sudan and mainly settled along the banks of the Nile. They were very famous for their horsemanship, for which they rode their horses bareback and held on by their knees, making them light, mobile, and efficient, and a good cavalry choice. Their Nubian language is an Eastern Sudanic language, part of the Nilo-Saharan phylum.

Egyptians in January overwhelmingly approved a referendum on a draft constitution that for the first time included mention of Nubians. Many Nubians were relocated for construction of the Aswan High Dam some 50 years ago, and they now hope they can return to their historic homeland by the Nile. ➡ Subscribe: http://bit.ly/NatGeoSubscribe About National Geographic: National Geographic is the world's premium destination for science, exploration, and adventure.

This video was made to illustrate the connection between Egyptian culture and indigenous African culture. They are entirely one in the same, hairstyles,religion,and cattle fixation. I will be making more videos in the future, going deeper on the subject of Hamitic peoples and civilization. Let us put an end to the rubbish concocted by the British, and early European thinkers alike. Afrocentric you say? Let's examine something about the term Africa. Africa is a European invention, an agnomen given to the Roman general Scipio Africanus who defeated Hannibal at the battle of Zama on October 19 202 BC. The Greeks originally attributed the name Ethiopia to the continent. Ethiopia meaning 'burnt face", which gave an accurate description of peoples living south of the Mediterranean sea. So the wo...
Old report on modern Nubians in Egypt. Note that these peoples are mixed and straight up Nubians are the jet-black like many Sudanese. However, it is good to note that even with mixing, they have the Africa mindset instead of the arab one. Of course this is not widely publicized. The darkest Africans known as Nubians were once the power in Egypt - as Egyptians, then they were pushed downward into Sudan and practically all black or black enough people in Egypt have been called Nubians, yet no one is called Egyptian except Copts who claim that. It is safe to assume that so-called arabs of Sudan are the REAL Egyptians and south Sudanese are real Nubians. It's a little more complex than that, but you get the idea
Aswan is the smallest of the three major tourist cities on the Nile. Being the furthest south of the three, it has a large population of Nubian people, mostly resettled from their homeland in the area flooded by Lake Nasser. Aswan is the home of many granite quarries from which most of the Obelisks seen in Luxor were sourced. Aswan was the ancient Egyptians' gateway. Nubia (southern Egypt, the area around Aswan) lies on the border between the Arab and African worlds and is also called "the gateway to Africa." The Nubians seem to lack the Egyptians; both their appearance and their culture is closely related to that of the more southern African peoples. The Nubians have a strong social bond. Which is reinforced by the joint history: The construction of the dam at Aswan the Nubians lost their...
About 100 thousand Nubians live in Kibera, one of the biggest slums in Africa. Kibera's population is made up of almost 1 million people from different parts of Kenya. Nubians are descendants of soldiers who were transported forcefully from Sudan by the British colonial government in the 1920's. They were enlisted to fight for the British army in the first and second world wars as part of the "King's African Rifles". Then as a token, the Nubians were settled in an area that was in colonial days — prime land in Kenya. They called it "Kibra" which means forest in Arabic. But the British never gave the Nubians title deeds and the land is still owned by the government. Abdul Faraj is a scholar and a Nubian elder who campaigns for his community's rights. He blames the situatio...
The general public has been manufactured into a nation of ventriloquists who believe in "so-called mysteries" harbored by scientists and other political entities should be no mystery at all if you got an "A" in World History. When something teeter totters into a realm that can't be linked back to Europe, scientists make the statement: "We have our team of experts working on that." Therein lies the carefully constructed hitch. African people are indigenous to the world. Now tell me Egypt was inhabited by white people. Everything documented in history is measured to and from Europe because of European mapmakers of the day. Sheer evidence shows the EXODUS was FROM Africa--NOT TO AFRICA. When Europeans FINALLY GOT TO AFRICA, Africans had already migrated to all parts of the world. Mo...
