| rdfs:comment | Old Nubian is an ancient variety of Nubian, attested in writing from the 8th to the 15th century (the most recent known text was written in 1485). It is ancestral to modern-day Nobiin and related to other Nubian languages such as Dongolawi. It was used throughout the medieval Christian kingdom of Makuria and its satellite Nobadia. The language is preserved in at least a hundred pages of documents, mostly of a religious nature, written using a modified form of the Coptic script; the best known is The Martyrdom of Saint Menas.

| rdfs:comment | Old Nubian was the principal language of the Sudan and the southern part of Egypt during the Middle Ages. Old Nubian is written in a modified form of the Greek uncial alphabet, with extra characters taken from Coptic and Meroitic. Approximately half the material in the language is composed of Christian religious texts such as the Septuagint and the Greek New Testament. It is the direct ancestor of modern Nubian. 8th - 15th centuries AD. ('en' language string) |
