Hillat el-Arab. The Joint Sudanese-Italian Expedition in the Napatan Region, Sudan

The cemetery at Hillat el-Arab is one of the very few sites excavated in Sudan that spans the period from the New Kingdom to the early Kushite (Napatan) period. Although partly plundered the detailed investigation of the tombs has shed a wealth of light on elite burial practices of a community living close to the major religious centre at Jebel Barkal and the burial ground of the early Kushite rulers at el-Kurru.
