Nubians
The term Nubian describes an ethnic group that originated in modern-day Sudan.
Nubian people have a long history dating back to dynastic Egypt, and Nubians even found a dynasty that rules upper and lower Egypt during the eighth century BCE.
Ancient Nubians are famous for their skill and precision with the bow.
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.
