FLOODS in SUDAN

Record floods in Sudan have threatened sites housing the royal pyramids of Meroe and Nuri, two of the country’s most important archaeological areas.
 
The Royal Valley at Meroe, a basin that fills during the annual flooding of the Nile, is at risk from unprecedented water levels and teams have been working to protect the historic site from being swamped.
 
Meroe is an ancient city on the East Bank of the Nile River, about 200 km North East of the capital, Khartoum. Meroe was the capital of Cush dynasty that ruled from the early 6th century B.C.

At Nuri, about 350 km North of Khartoum, tombs buried 7 to 10 meters underneath pyramids have been affected by a dramatic rise in ground water.
 
The Nuri pyramids include the tomb of Taharqua, who ruled over lands in modern-day Sudan and Egypt, in the 7th century B.C. These invaluable historic relics are at risk in this unprecedented flooding.
 
Floods in Sudan have left over a hundred people dead and many tens of thousands of homes destroyed, or damaged.

"And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. 
Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 
teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen.
”
 Matthew 28: 18-20
