Modern Nubian
Modern Nubian refers to the contemporary culture and language of the Nubian people, who primarily inhabit regions in Sudan and Egypt. This group has a rich history that dates back to ancient times, with influences from various civilizations, including the Pharaohs and Islamic empires. Today, Nubians maintain their unique traditions, music, and crafts, while also adapting to modern influences.
The Nubian language, part of the Nilo-Saharan language family, consists of several dialects, including Nobiin and Kenzi.
