📜Step into the past with 'Arabic Documents from #Medieval Nubia' by Geoffrey Khan, out now!
This volume presents an edition of a corpus of #Arabic documents datable to the 11th-12th century that were discovered by the #EgyptExplorationSociety at the site of the #Nubian fortress Qaṣr Ibrīm (situated in the south of modern #Egypt).
The edition of the documents is accompanied by English translations and a detailed analysis of their contents and historical background.
They are of particular importance since previous historical studies from the perspective of #Arabic sources have been almost entirely based on #historiographical sources, often written a long time after the events described and distorted by tendentious points of view.
👉This is the 24th volume published as part of our '#Cambridge #Semitic Languages and Cultures' series.
