About this listen
For most Classics students, North Africa is mentioned for a few reasons (say it with me now): Hannibal, Queen Dido in Carthage, Cleopatra, and as the birthplace of Emperor Septimius Severus. In this episode, my guest Avery Warkentin introduces us to another region that was flourishing in culture, trade, and contacts with the ancient Mediterranean world: Nubia -- and within it, the metropolitan site of Naqa. Join me as I learn about a kiosk (note: not the "let me sell you some stuff by the side of the road" kind but the religious kind) and a Lion Temple, which provide insight into how Nubians interacted with Greco-Roman influences and negotiated their display alongside their own, local styles.
