Julie Renee Anderson

Assistant Keeper
Ancient Sudan and Egyptian Nubia Department: Ancient Egypt and Sudan

 

Responsibilities entail the curation, research, registration and exhibition of Sudanese and Nubian artefacts within the collection with particular focus upon those from Kulubnarti. Archaeological excavations are conducted in Sudan together with the National Corporation for Antiquities and Museums (NCAM) and as part of the museum’s international training initiative personnel from NCAM receive training in field excavation techniques.

At the current time, fieldwork is concentrated upon the Late Kushite site of Dangeil (third century BC – fourth century AD), approximately 350km north of Khartoum, in the Berber-Abidiya region where excavation of a large Amun temple and surrounding temenos enclosure is underway.
