About 250 km north of Khartoum, the capital of Sudan, rises the millenary city of Meroe. Here is a priceless human heritage, dozens of pyramids known as Nubians, from the African region of Nubia. In this land there was the kingdom of Kush, of which Meroe was the last capital. ⁣ ⁣ UNESCO heritage since 2011, the Nubian pyramids date back to 800 BC, built as a symbol of power of the prestigious kingdom of Kush, domain of the "black pharaohs". The site of Meroe is also known as the "royal cemetery" and contains 100 pyramids. ⁣ ⁣ The physical proportion of the Nubian pyramids differs a lot from the Egyptian pyramids: they are built in steps, and are from six to thirty meters high, with bases rarely wider than eight meters, which led to structures with slopes of about 70 degrees. Many of them also had temples for offerings near the base, with Kush features.⁣ ⁣ Follow @thehumanoriginproject⁣ @archaeological_trip

Выставка монет музея в Йерусалиме показывает, что любовь дочери дороже золота.. Бесценная коллекция из 75 золотых римских монет иллюстрирует эволюцию портретной живописи на протяжении 300 лет. История гласит, что родившийся в Александрии Виктор Адда купил свою первую монету в подростковом возрасте, со своего первого заработка. На момент его смерти в возрасте 80 лет, (1965 год) легендарная коллекция египетского еврея насчитывала более 1000 монет, в основном римских. Его коллекция была настолько знаменита, что к нему даже захаживали королевские особы, чтобы прикоснуться к шедеврам античной истории. Далее коллекция перешла к его четырем дочерям, одна из которых - Джованна - проявила неслыханную щедрость и подарила часть коллекции музею, в память об отце. Теперь 75 самых «ярких» золотых монет из собрания обрели постоянный дом в иерусалимском музее Израиля. Эту воистину царскую коллекцию, застрахованную на 7,5 миллионов долларов, можно увидеть на выставке Израильского музея “Лики власти”, где представлены портреты 40 римских императоров и трех узурпаторов, а также портреты 13 женщин, которые были членами императорской семьи. Legend has it that Alexandrian-born Victor A. Adda purchased his first coin as a teen, with his first earnings. Whether that genesis story is fact or fiction, by his death at 80 in 1965, the Egyptian Jew’s now legendary collection eventually encompassed over 1,000. Upon his death, it was left to his four daughters. Now, a substantial 75 gold coins from it have a new permanent home in Jerusalem’s Israel Museum. According to daughter Giovanna Adda Coen, whose donation more than doubled the total number of gold Roman coins in the Jewish state.
