Folding camping bed from the Tomb of Tutankhamun, Thebes,

CONCLUSION

The legacies of these three regions include

stone columns, monumental sculpture, and the

use of fantastic animals in decorative programs.

Recovering the heritage of Nubia is an ongoing

project, in large part due to the interest of

twentieth- and twenty-first-century African

American scholars such as Harvard’s Henry Louis

Gates (2001). Interest in ancient Nubia, Egypt,

and Mesopotamia is driven in large part by what

these civilizations mean to people today.
