Queenship in Kush

In the ancient Mediterranean world, the ex ceptional status of queens in the Kingdom of Meroe inspired comment in the works of Greco Roman writers.These women, and the kandake in particular, continued to attract the attention of travelers and scholars down into modern times.By comparison, the role and status of their predecessors, the royal mothers, wives, sisters, and daughters, from the Kushite 25th Dynasty down through the Napatan Period to the reign of Nastasen, remained little known. 1 Beginning with George A. Reisner's excava tions of the royal cemeteries at El Kurru and Nuri and Francis LI.Griffith's work at Kawa, a steadily increasing body of material has become available for the study of Kushite "queenship."These sources fall into three categories
