The Kingdom of Kush was an ancient civilisation that lay along the Nile River, in what is now Sudan. For centuries, this sophisticated kingdom vied with and even ruled over its powerful neighbour, ancient Egypt.

To discuss the often overlooked Kushites, Dan is joined by Geoff Emberling, an archaeologist and lecturer in Mesopotamian and Nubian Archaeology at the University of Michigan.

Produced by James Hickmann and edited by Anisha Deva.
