Indestructible Nubian Museums
1 - When the Spell Backfired
Dr. Ahmed Eltigani Sidahmed
When the spell backfired, Dudley — the racist governor whose name was immortalized in a square in Boston — was undone by the tide of history. In the heart of the city, beneath the museum buildings, Nubian artifacts emerged from hiding. Dudley Square was renamed Nubian Square, and the central bus terminal of the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) became Nubian Station. That district declared its symbolic victory over centuries of erasure, inscribing Nubia into the urban consciousness of America — not as a relic, but as a revived force.
The belief holds true: God is capable of preserving His creation, as stated in the wise Qur’anic verse: “And He taught Adam the names — all of them.” The shackling of Satan and his poisonous influence on earth does not mean God’s signs will be erased. Nor will the devils descended from Satan — like Musaylimah, Hassan al-Banna, Hassan al-Turabi, Ali Karti, Rached Ghannouchi, and the warlords of Afghanistan, Syria, Iraq, and Iran who weaponized God’s name to justify bloodshed — escape divine judgment on the Day when neither wealth nor children shall avail.
I bear witness to divine justice. I saw the punishment of one such devil who worked to destroy the Sudan National Museum. Many may not know the Islamist figure who visited the museum during Sadiq al-Mahdi’s government and recommended the destruction of “idols.” It was said he insisted the Ministry of Education erase a disciplinary ruling against him for child rape — a crime he committed by exploiting his Islamist ties and the indulgence of the head of the Third Democratic Government.
But by God’s wisdom, I witnessed his fate in Italy, where he had arrived as an ambassador. He left disgraced, exposed by Italian newspapers, and ultimately ended up as a mere guard for his wife who ran a liquor store in London. Indeed, God delays, but never neglects.
And there are museums that Egyptian officials, artifact thieves, and document forgers could not reach or erase from historical records — including the Egyptian Museum itself, whose custodians cut off the nose of the Sphinx and Ramses to conceal their black Hamitic features! The repeated failure of Egypt’s UNESCO candidates proves the world’s mistrust of historical fabricators. Neither the assassination of Nubian historian Professor Hecock on Nile Street as he headed to his office at the University of Khartoum, nor the complaints by successive Egyptian governments to prestigious Western museums, yielded any results—only embarrassment among the patrons of cheap taverns.
The Symbolic Cancellation Project
Nubian archaeologists and scholars worldwide are preparing for the sixteenth International Nubian Studies Conference, scheduled next year in Germany. This conference, established in the 1960s, convenes every four years to safeguard Nubian heritage submerged beneath 60 meters of water due to the High Dam — which drowned temples, churches, and entire communities, making Nubians the first racial refugees of modern Sudan. This was the beginning of the “Symbolic Cancellation Project” adopted by successive Egyptian regimes.
This project failed — and it stands as living proof that not every erasure begins with a bulldozer. The racist, exclusionary, marginalizing campaign started in Nubian northern Sudan (the “Barabra” and their “Rutana” tongue), extended to the East (“Adaraba” and TB patients), the South (“slaves and boys”), and the West (“Zarqa” and “Gharaba”).
Sometimes, marginalization begins with mockery of a dialect, ridicule of attire, or deliberate omission of a history unacknowledged in school curricula. This symbolic erasure was perpetuated by the elite of Sudan’s 1956 State — out of ignorance, inferiority, or malice. They colluded with forced Arabization and alienation from self, blinding themselves to ancient, rooted civilizations simply because they did not resemble “Qurayshi Arabs.”
When the High Dam flooded the land, and the elites drowned the memory of place, this was no development — it was a funeral for identity, buried by paid poets and corrupt politicians. These ignorant submissives, with their lost identity, proved their ignorance of both the Qur’an and history. They never knew that Quraysh were Arabized descendants of Hagar, the Nubian princess and wife of Abraham the Canaanite.
“Mountains groaned and gave birth to a mouse” — not a Qur’anic verse, but a proverb. It fits the state of most of Sudan’s 1956-era intellectuals, save for a few. None stood as tall as Khalil Farah, the proud Nubian who sang, “We are the noble honor, the defenders of the Nile, lions of Kar.” He sang in defiance of British colonialism — but they dressed a deranged Nubian in the cloak of the Mahdiyya and declared him a saint, claiming this Dongolawi Nubian was a pure Qurayshi Arab!
If only those fraudsters lived to witness what modern science has revealed: that Adam was created from black silt, sourced from the Blue Nile’s banks, brought to the divine realm — and the angels prostrated before him. Yes, they bowed to the Black father of humanity, father of Noah, grandfather of Ham the Black, and ancestor of Kush the Nubian.
Read history, people! Read the history of Nubian kings, of Benin, of the empires of Timbuktu. Stop boasting about tales like that of Abdullah Al-Tayeb, who showed up in short shorts (if only he had worn a royal Nubian loincloth!), and turned Arab disgust at Western nudity into awe — simply because he surpassed them in a hyper-formal Arabic that time has devoured.
