Author(s):埃格,Jana; Karberg,Tim; Lohwasser,Angelika|摘要:本文介绍了一些来自苏丹Bayuda和西部沙漠偏远地区的中世纪材料,并得出了几个关于基督教和Makurian管理在其中的存在的结论。首先,描述了不同地区的总体地形背景,以确定本文的地理框架。Wadi Abu Dom是一个短暂的河流流域,位于Bayuda中部和西部,位于苏丹尼罗河州和北方州之间。它在Bayuda中部的火山山脉中排出了几个树枝状的Khors-其中最突出的名为“Ras ed-Dom”,其名称指的是它作为(Wadi Abu)Dom的最高后代的角色。它最初是从北向南流动,后来是向西或西北方向流动。在现代城镇Merowe的北部,正对着Gebel Barkal,它与尼罗河汇合。
Author(s): Eger, Jana; Karberg, Tim; Lohwasser, Angelika | Abstract: This paper presents some medieval material from remote areas within the Bayuda and the Western Deserts in Sudan, and draws several conclusions about the presence of Christianity and the Makurian administration within them. First, the general topographical setting of the different areas are described in order to define the geographical frame of the paper. The Wadi Abu Dom is an ephemeral fluviatile valley situated within the central and western Bayuda between the Sudanese provinces River Nile State and Northern State. It drains several dendritic khors in volcanic mountains of the central Bayuda – the most prominent of them named “Ras ed-Dom,” whose name refers to its role as the uppermost offspring of the (Wadi Abu) Dom. It flows at its very beginning from north to south, and later in western or northwestern direction. North of the modern town of Merowe directly opposite the Gebel Barkal, it meets the River Nile.
