"Hey Naples,
Unfortunately, the kiosk did not sell souvenirs, and the church was closed from prayer. I felt like sneaking in, but that relief of queen Amanitore on the front scared me. Well, I have to go, it's off to the temple of Amun-Ra!"
USED AROUND 4TH CENTURY BC TO 4TH CENTURY AD, THE CITY NAGA'S TEMPLE TO APEDAMAK IS WITH A ROMAN KIOSK.
"Hey Naples,
Even though the Kushites were ENTIRELY different from the Egyptians, they still shared a religion! This specific temple is to Amun-Ra, the second most popular god. Kush is a strange place: With African culture yet Egyptian religion."
FOUNDED BY KING NATAKUMANI, THE TEMPLE TO AMUN-RA IN NAQA STANDS 100 METERS IN LENGTH. IT IT ON THE EAST-WEST AXIS.
"Hey Naples,
Who knew Egypt was ruled by black people? Not to be racist, but it is a true question. In reality, after generations of Egyptian oppression, Kushites managed to rebel and get full revenge. Talk about perseverance! These are just statues dedicated to tier name."
IN 728 BC, NUBIAN RULERS FROM THEIR 25TH DYNASTY MANAGE TO CONQUER EGYPT.
"Hey Naples,
No, this isn't Egypt! This is Meroe, the second capital of the Nubian Kingdom of Kush. Instead of few grand pyramids like Egypt, many small pyramids were dedicated to many rulers and royalty. I have to go, it's time to explore!"
A PYRAMID RANGE IN THE ANCIENT CAPITAL OF MEROE, PRESENT DAY SUDAN. COMPARED TO EGYPTIAN PYRAMIDS, KUSHITE PYRAMIDS WERE SMALLER.
"Hey Naples,
Woah! It's so empty here! Nothing like our expected bustling streets and retail centers. Anyway, these pyramids are odd. They're much smaller than we can expect, but much more numerous. Well, I'm going to go, the Nile is nearby!"
