Arabic Documents from Medieval Nubia

The book offers a critical edition of Arabic documents from the 11th and 12th centuries, uncovered at the Nubian fortress Qär Ibr m. It includes English translations and in-depth analyses, revealing insights into Egypt-Nubia relations during the High Middle Ages, particularly the Fatimid period. These documents are significant as they provide a fresh perspective, contrasting with earlier studies that relied heavily on later historiographical sources, which often presented biased interpretations of historical events.
