Clearly, ancient Nile Valley Africans, whether in Nubia or Egypt, created a profound legacy befitting humanity's long creative march along the pageantry of historical continuum. In practically every field of humankind's cultural experimentation, innovation and development, Egyptians and their Nile Valley African brethren have contributed to humanity's legacy in industry, science, spirituality and knowledge.
