Summary

Italian excavations at the Palace of Natakamani in Napata, Sudan, revealed significant historical insights about the Meroitic region. The study reconstructed the site's history before the palace's foundation, integrating it into the broader ceremonial architecture of the ancient Napatan center. This was achieved through a series of data analyses that provided a deeper understanding of the area's development and its role in the cultural landscape of the time.
