IN PERSON: Egypt and Nubia were two great civilizations that shared the northern Nile valley of Africa in the ancient world. As neighboring powers, they competed for control of trade networks and valuable resources, especially gold. This fall, we will explore the complex relationship between these cultures through a survey of their art and artifacts, including detailed views of works from the North Carolina Museum of Art's Egyptian collection and objects featured in the special NCMA exhibition "Ancient Nubia: Excavating Treasures of the Nile From the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston." | Lecture + Q&A, Facilitated discussion.
Max enrollment: 200.
