PHARAOH OF THE TWO LANDS AT LOUVRE MUSEUM!

The Louvre Museum is organizing an exhibition on ancient Egypt from the 8th century BC, on the ruler Piânkhi who conquered Egypt from the Nile delta to the confluence of the White Nile and the Blue Nile  and inaugurated a new dynasty of pharaohs of which Taharqa is a part.

The exhibition highlights the leading role of this vast kingdom, located in what is now northern Sudan. It is linked to the archaeological mission of the Louvre Museum in Sudan which, for 10 years, concentrated its research on the site of Mouweis and will continue it today, in El-Hassa, 30 km further north and not far from pyramids of Meroe.

The exhibition will take place from April 28 to July 25, 2022.
