[QUOTE]Originally posted by Amun-Ra The Ultimate: [QB] Nubia was a never a term used by Ancient Egyptians to refer to Kushite people or their territory. It never appeared in any Ancient Egyptian text. Ancient Egyptians used to refer to the Kushite territory and people as Ta-Seti (Land of the Bow) since the Old Kingdom. During the Middle Kingdom (12th Dynasty), the word Kush began to be used alongside Ta-Seti. Nubia, a term often used by modern egyptologists, was first used to refer to people and territory by Strabo a Greek geographer and has no relation to Kush or Ta-Seti. Here's the chronology of the Kushite Kingdoms: [IMG]http://i1274.photobucket.com/albums/y421/amunratheultimate2/Misc2/KingdomofKushTimeline_zps72aa3939.png~original[/IMG] [/QB][/QUOTE]
