In October 2008 the Department of Anthropology of the University of Khartoum celebrated its golden jubilee. It owed its establishment and development to foreign anthropologists who taught and led research during its formative years, including Wendy James, Ahmed Al‐Shahi, Gunnar Haaland, Gunnar Sørbø, and Jay O'Brien. Ian Cunnison, and Fredrik Barth. British, American, and Norwegian anthropologists played key roles in the development of anthropology in Sudan and directed the course of the discipline in the country. Sudan holds a prestigious position in world anthropology as a result of the influential contributions of E. E. Evans‐Pritchard, Charles G. Seligman, and Barth. This entry is an account of anthropology in Sudan and how it developed. It gives a chronology of the discipline in Sudan, describes the evolution of the department, and explores the themes covered by anthropologists who did their research in Sudan
