Nubiologist Caroline Rocheleau discusses the NCMA’s fall exhibition Ancient Nubia: Excavating Treasures of the Nile and how it helps reframe power dynamics in the Nile Valley. Discover how the exhibition debunks George Reisner’s biased understanding of the Kingdom of Kush by using archaeology as the interpretive framework to reveal how knowledge of Nubia has been discovered, interpreted, and re-examined over time.
