You literally could search that the British noticed that most kingdoms from West Africa to the East did know of the wheel but discovered how useless it was in Africa. Have you seen the continent? Lol? West Africa was covered in dense rainforest and sprawling cities were built in them... Other regions were just desert... Where is someone going to use them?

    These are histories that should be told more often.

The whole world should know about this. They have left many ruins of their civilisation as the south Sahara swallowed up much of it.

It's true that it's often over-romanticised but I think the reason why Western historians are so interested in it is also simply because it was so impactful and influential to European/Western history and because it managed to last for such an insanely long time despite the extreme heterogeneous nature of the population.

The Egyptians built dozens of fortifications on their border because the Kushites of the Kerma kingdom weren't a joke.

Military might is measurable at fixed points in time. At one time Greece had the mightiest military in the world under Alexander. 200 years later the empire was fractured. The same is true of all empires. However the Empires of Egypt and Nubia stood for thousands of years. Not one thousand, but thousands. Nubia's last incursion into Egypt is the present border of Egypt and Sudan today. That border stood right through the Roman Empire. Inferior?

But in my studies, I haven’t seen a pharaoh without Nubian heritage. What he described from Piye was not a Nubian unification. It was a civil war. One state deciding they deserved to lead.
    Also, he painted a picture of military inferiority from the Nubians... but they were the military LOL.

    Nice video, but with some error is to say that the Kushites learned how to build pyramids from Egyptians. That's not true. The pyramids in the Nubian area predate the Egyptian pyramids.
    It's important to note that the Nubians always regarded Egyptians as their cousins, and not separate or alien people.
    The Nubians already had believed in Amun Ra~Sun God, before the invasion, and infact they carried with them a statue and alter of Amin Ra even in war.
    Also note that, the Nubians attacked Egypt so as to overthrow and rescue them from foreign rule of the Assyrians.

But, the DEGREES of influence make all the difference in the world and can render one cultural manifestation predominantly 'owned' by a culture, while another manifestation predominantly the result of diffusion. The basic concept of the Meroitic was diffused from Egypt, as exact Egyptian hieroglyphs were found, and pre-dated the advent of Meroitic by close to 3,000 years. And, again, to your point, the degree to which Egyptian Hieroglyphics was influenced by a preceding form is apparently MUCH less, if indeed at all, than the degree to which Hieroglyphics influenced Meroitic.

    Nubia actually existed before Egypt and Egypt only formed from the outsiders of the Nubian empire who fled north. Egypt inherited its religion and ideals from Nubia and eventually became more powerful because they were situated on the Mediterranean sea and had access to trade partners across europe and the middle east. When the Persians invaded egypt as well as the Libyans, it was the Nubians who went back to Egypt to take it from them since the Libyans and Persians were perverting the ancient religions and customs.
