DESCRIPTION:Several ethnic groups lived under the pharaoh’s sceptre. A w
 ell-known example\, but insufficiently researched\, are Nubians inhabiting
  the Gebelein region in the late 3rd millennium BCE\, which are the subjec
 t of this talk.\nPrevious scholars believed they were mercenaries brought 
 to this area by warlords during the turmoil of the First Intermediate Peri
 od (ca. 2118–1980 BCE). Their subsequent disappearance from the archaeol
 ogical record after that time was explained by their alleged eagerness to 
 blend into the local Egyptian society\, to which they were supposedly aspi
 ring. This view is undermined by the fact that Nubians deliberately underl
 ined their distinct ethnicity on the stelae.\nA wider examination of their
  presence in southern Upper Egypt shows that they were living there alread
 y since the emergence of the pharaonic state and thus can be regarded as n
 ative to this land and they mixed with Egyptians. It seems that they even 
 retained their tribal structure when living in Egypt.
