  • The Kingdom of Kush: A Captivating Guide to an Ancient African Kingdom in Nubia That Once Ruled Egypt

Africa is the continent where the first humans were born. They explored the vast land and produced the first tools. And although we migrated from that continent, we never completely abandoned it. From the beginning of time, humans lived and worked in Africa, leaving evidence of their existence in the sands of the Sahara Desert and the valleys of the great rivers such as the Nile and the Niger.

Some of the earliest great civilizations were born there, and they give us an insight into the smaller kingdoms of ancient Africa.

Some of the topics covered in part one of this audiobook include:

  • The Kingdom of Kush
  • The Land of Punt
  • Carthage
  • The Kingdom of Aksum
  • The Ghana Empire
  • The Mali Empire
  • And much, much more!

Some of the topics covered in part two of this audiobook include:

  • Nubia and the emergence of the Kingdom of Kush
  • From Alara to the Twenty-Fifth Dynasty
  • The rulers of the Twenty-Fifth Dynasty
  • Relations between Kush and Egypt continue
  • Kush between the sixth and third centuries
  • The Meroitic Dynasty
  • The last centuries of the Kingdom of Kush
  • The society of Kush
  • And much, much more!

I recently did my ancestry and found out I am 94% West African. I wanted to know more about the land I learned so little about in America beyond the slave trade. What a rich and beautiful culture. We were so much more than slaves. We come from a land of powerful, rich, intelligent brave Kings & Queens!

Absolutely Fascinating

I loved this book. it read more like an encyclopedia than anything else. This is an overview of thousands of years of history so being detailed about all the ancient African kingdoms just isn't feasible. however, this book does an excellent job at explaining when and where these great peoples were located in time and place and firmly destroys the idiotic notion that Africa didn't provide much to the collective knowledge and advancement of world culture and heritage.

if you want a basic overview of what history Africa has and its place at the top of civilization this is a great starter book.

A much needed correction of world history.

not sure how much I retained, listened to this in the background while working. but I was intrigued enough to occasionally google some of the ancient kingdoms and remains while listening along.

nice pace

It’s so hard to find African history books. This one had a lot of great info that I didn’t know before reading it. I hope people keep collecting more African history and give the continent its due respect!

Wish there was more!

Highly recommended for the layperson who wants to find out more about Africa before her encounter with Europeans after Rome and Greece. However, there were some choppy bits of information that might have been left out completely or needed some more clarification. As I stated, this is a good start.

Great start for a nonspecialists.

Why didn’t we learn this stuff in school? Can’t wait for future discoveries and research in ancient Africa.

About time

The book is OK for an introductory work. The book doesn’t explain why the kingdoms chosen before 300 were all well to the north (and mostly northeast) of the continent – one expects that it’s a matter of where written records are available to historians. Including the Ghana and Mali empires in a volume of ancient history is a stretch according the standard usage of “ancient history”. The book’s writing is OK but it should have been regularly improved by a more articulate editor. It would be hard to count the number of times I improved wording of a just finished sentence in my head.

Content is OK but the Writing is amateurish

Having lived in Africa for 4 years, I tried to learn the history of the places I lived and visited. These books (there are two distinct sections that cover different information) cover history which most of people don’t know about. Very worthwhile book.
I did see one oddity in the way the material was presented. When addressing all the various religions from these societies, he only referred to one religion’s beliefs as myths - Christianity. Unnecessary bias!
