Radiocarbon dates from Debbat El Eheima indicated a time span of 1800-600 BCE, whereas those from Debbat Bangdit indicated 400-1600 CE. Small iron objects from Debbat El Eheima associated with these dates suggest early settlement (1100-800 BCE) but not necessarily iron production. Excavations at Debbat El Eheima and Debbat Bangdit revealed parts of graves and one complete infant grave. Potsherds used as grave covers suggested burial and subsequent memorial rituals. Pottery classification indicated some distinctive types, which are illustrated in this book. Despite their time difference, Debbat El Eheima and Debbat Bangdit showed shared features, and links with historical and ethnographic evidence and other documentation suggest a broader sociocultural affiliation that can be called a Nilotic great tradition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 150\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.41 x 11.69 x 8.27 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 30, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53450179772723,"sku":"9781407361499","price":109.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0990\/0746\/3731\/files\/wr69qkUS5e9781407361499.webp?v=1782986549","url":"https:\/\/s3xxpj-vy.myshopify.com\/products\/ethnohistories-from-upper-nile-south-sudan-archaeology-ethnoarchaeology-ethnography-and-history-paperback","provider":"The Celestial Starlit Phoenix ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
