The study conducted a comparative analysis of faunal data from the largest ancient and medieval centers of civilization in Northeast Africa, primarily from the region of the Middle Nile, allowing for the identification of the timing, scope, and intensity of these factors&#8217; impact on local communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the first time, a comparison was made between the animal husbandry models of the Makuria and Alwa societies of two neighboring Nubian kingdoms during the period 500\u20131200 CE. It was shown that Makuria was dynamic and open to adapting new species, such as pigs, camels, chickens, and horses, while Alwa maintained a conservative model focused on cattle husbandry characteristic of the ancient Kush tradition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The research also demonstrated that longhorn indigenous cattle were imported into Makuria from the central Sahel, as evidenced by osteometric and isotopic data, whereas Alwa exclusively raised local short-horned cattle, preserving the patterns of the ancient Kush civilization. It was discovered that patterns of agriculture and meat consumption can be an element of identity among communities living in similar environmental, political, and religious conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/pii\/S2352409X2400141X?via%3Dihub\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"576\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/archeo.uwr.edu.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2024\/12\/Journal-of-Archaeological-Science_Reports-60.jpg\" alt=\"Journal of Archaeological Science: Reports, volume 60 cover\" class=\"wp-image-33611\" style=\"width:600px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/archeo.uwr.edu.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2024\/12\/Journal-of-Archaeological-Science_Reports-60.jpg 576w, https:\/\/archeo.uwr.edu.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2024\/12\/Journal-of-Archaeological-Science_Reports-60-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/archeo.uwr.edu.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2024\/12\/Journal-of-Archaeological-Science_Reports-60-18x24.jpg 18w, https:\/\/archeo.uwr.edu.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2024\/12\/Journal-of-Archaeological-Science_Reports-60-27x36.jpg 27w, https:\/\/archeo.uwr.edu.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2024\/12\/Journal-of-Archaeological-Science_Reports-60-36x48.jpg 36w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-column stk-block-column stk-column stk-block stk-bcf1bde\" data-v=\"4\" data-block-id=\"bcf1bde\"><style>@media screen and (min-width: 768px){.stk-bcf1bde {flex:var(--stk-flex-grow, 1) 1 calc(5% - var(--stk-column-gap, 0px) * 2 \/ 3 ) !important;}}<\/style><div class=\"stk-column-wrapper stk-block-column__content stk-container stk-bcf1bde-container stk--no-background stk--no-padding\"><div class=\"stk-block-content stk-inner-blocks stk-bcf1bde-inner-blocks\"><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We encourage you to read Prof. Marta Osypi\u0144ska&#8217;s article, published in the Journal of Archaeological Science: Reports, which uncovers fascinating differences in animal husbandry models between the Makuria and Alwa communities of the medieval Nubian kingdoms.
