The Nubian Village
Stepping inside a Nubian House will reveal nothing but decent, friendly, and welcoming people. They are the Nubians, famous for their dark skin and their distinct Nubian language, which is distinct and should not be confused with Arabic.
The ancient Nubians were well known for their archery skills, and as this skill is the skill of using a bow to shoot arrows, the ancient Egyptians called their land "Ta-Seti" which means "land of the bow“. These archery skills were the key component of the military strength of Nubian rulers. It was common for warriors to be buried alongside there archery equipment. Historically, Nubians were known by another name which was Kush, and there was the kingdom of Nubia, located along the Nile in southern Egypt and northern Sudan, a kingdom famously known for its rich deposits of gold.
Village Nubian
Nubian villages and homes are very small and quiet. It's not common to have a crocodile as a pet, but don't worry, these pet crocodiles are kept in cages. Both live and preserved crocodile bodies are hung and greatly admired in Nubian homes. The Nubian people love crocodiles because they believe they will protect them and their homes from bad luck. You could also find chickens and goats, which are more common animals.
