| The site is testimony to the Napatan (900 to 270 BC) and Meroitic (270 BC to 350 AD) cultures. Tombs, with and without pyramids, temples, living complexes and palaces, are to be found on the site. Since Antiquity, the hill of Gebel Barkal has been strongly associated with religious traditions and folklore. The largest temples are still considered by the local people as sacred places. |
