The Discovery of Ezana's Capital in the Heartland of Ancient Meroe
2022
Overview
This research examines the discovery of King Ezana's capital in the heartland of ancient Meroe, highlighting its archaeological significance in rewriting the region's history. The study begins with the premise that Ezana's capital, long shrouded in mystery, holds crucial cultural and political implications for understanding the evolution of Kushite kingdoms and their interactions with Aksum. The first section provides historical background on King Ezana, emphasizing his role in expanding Aksum's influence and his connections with Meroe. It also outlines the political, commercial, and cultural ties between the two regions. The second section discusses the details of the archaeological discovery, including material evidence such as inscriptions, architectural remains, and artifacts pointing to the site's royal character. It also explains the scientific methods used in excavation and analysis. The third section analyzes the historical implications of the discovery, such as redefining Meroe's geographical boundaries and understanding the political and religious transformations of the era. The study concludes that this discovery opens new horizons for exploring interactions among ancient Nile Valley civilizations. Recommendations include expanding field research and fostering international collaboration to shed more light on the histories of Meroe and Aksum. Abstract Written by Dar AlMandumh, 2025, Using AI
