The Egyptian Antiquities department at the British Museum houses one of the most important collections of its kind outside Cairo illustrating every aspect of ancient Egyptian culture as well as a significant amount of material from Nubia and the Sudan. The Egypt and African Gallery (Room 65) is devoted exclusively to the cultures of Nubia. The gallery contains material relating to all major ancient cultures of the Northern Sudan along with a small amount of Roman and Aksumite material. The museum has a particularly fine collection of material from Qasr Ibrim including organic material such as wood, leather, and papyri. Of particular interest are artifacts that were excavated by Griffith at Kawa. Among this material is one of the rams from outside temple T (on display in the Egyptian sculpture gallery), and the Taharqa-headed sphinx from inside the temple. Also on display are several pieces from Napata.

The most famous artifacts from Nubia are the Prudhoe lions originally installed at the Temple of Amenophis III at Soleb and moved by the Kushites to Jebel Barkal. The museum also has material from the Wellcome excavations at Jebel Moya, Saqadi and Abu Geili, from Meroë and from Faras. Recently the museum has amassed a considerable collection of material from the British Institute in Eastern African’s excavation on the medieval site at Soba East and from the Sudan Archaeological Research Society’s surveys and excavations in the Northern Dongola Reach and north of Meroë at Gabati. The majority of material from the Dongola region dates to the Kerma period and from Kushite through medieval times at Gabati.
