Description

Soba was once the thriving lost capital of a powerful Christian kingdom. Excavations near modern Khartoum are finally bringing the Medieval Soba site back into the historical record. We examine the church remains and pottery left behind to understand the story of the Alodia kingdom. If you enjoy forgotten history and the detective work behind every archaeological site, this one is for you.
