      @4chanman666 "No wheel?"... What would the wheel be used for? You literally could search that the British noticed that most kingdoms from West Africa to the East did know of the wheel but discovered how useless it was in Africa. Have you seen the continent? Lol? West Africa was covered in dense rainforest and sprawling cities were built in them... Other regions were just desert... Where is someone going to use them? I'd like to see the basis of your reasoning.

Also it places Taharka in a wrong Dynasty etc. However, the video main purpose about the kush civilization previous to egypt is correct.

    Nubia actually existed before Egypt and Egypt only formed from the outsiders of the Nubian empire who fled north. Egypt inherited its religion and ideals from Nubia and eventually became more powerful because they were situated on the Mediterranean sea and had access to trade partners across europe and the middle east. When the Persians invaded egypt as well as the Libyans, it was the Nubians who went back to Egypt to take it from them since the Libyans and Persians were perverting the ancient religions and customs.

The Egyptians built dozens of fortifications on their border because the Kushites of the Kerma kingdom weren't a joke.

    Nice video, but with some error is to say that the Kushites learned how to build pyramids from Egyptians. That's not true. The pyramids in the Nubian area predate the Egyptian pyramids.
    It's important to note that the Nubians always regarded Egyptians as their cousins, and not separate or alien people.
    The Nubians already had believed in Amun Ra~Sun God, before the invasion, and infact they carried with them a statue and alter of Amin Ra even in war.
    Also note that, the Nubians attacked Egypt so as to overthrow and rescue them from foreign rule of the Assyrians.

The same is true of all empires. However the Empires of Egypt and Nubia stood for thousands of years. Not one thousand, but thousands. Nubia's last incursion into Egypt is the present border of Egypt and Sudan today. That border stood right through the Roman Empire. Inferior?

During the reign of Kamose I and the battle with the Hyksos king Apophis ..Kamose's men were able to intercept a letter from Apophis to a Kushite king asking for alliance against Egypt and offering to split Egypt between the two. This is well documented in the Kamose inscription where he laments between between the Nehusu and the northern usurpers. This likely means the Kushite royalty were fluent in Demotic script.

      Nope. We have many Old Kingdom sculptures which resemble very closely the current population of Egypt (especially Copts). Nubians are not Egyptians.

      Hey tut, the dinka and nuer are originally people who came from North sudan, there is an island in Khartoum called tuti Island I herd thats where the dinka and nuer had a disagreement. But unfortunately many south sudanese don't know their home land was originally north sudan.

    Great documentary. The first Nubian civilisations were Kerma and Sai, with Kerma later swallowing all of Sai and forming a kingdom spanning almost half of modern day Sudan. These events happened between 3000 and 2000 BC. Unfortunately, most of their scriptures were lost to time.

    There is wayyyyy too much praise on this chat line. Nubians didn’t join Egypt (Kemet). They were Egypt. He makes it seem as if there was a unification with Piye, in the 8th century BC. But in my studies, I haven’t seen a pharaoh without Nubian heritage. What he described from Piye was not a Nubian unification. It was a civil war. One state deciding they deserved to lead.
    Also, he painted a picture of military inferiority from the Nubians... but they were the military LOL.
    In other words, this is directed to make you think the black Nubians joined a great empire... when they built it.
