[QUOTE]Originally posted by alTakruri: [QB] There'll always be twisting unless everybody agrees what is Nubia. Some people see a Nubia as everything upNile from the Egypt of the pharaohs even before the New Kingdom and even though the word wasn't used then. Some folk see a Nubia as synonymous with a limited region no further south than the cataract 2nd cataract. Others see a border changing Nubia as Egyptian annexing rolled ever southward although New Kingdom Egyptians used the word Kush as in King's Son of Kush in that era. Kush flexed its muscles and ripped, from various centers at various times, a territory from the junction of Blue and White Niles to the 1st catarct near Elephantine but it gets called Nubia too except for Egypt and the Levant (Meggido) when under its control. [b] If so, southern Nubia (more or less all Meroe's territory) is south or upNile from Upper Nubia, 2nd to 4th cataract (Kerma - Napata).[/b] [/QB][/QUOTE]
