クシュ
Meroë was the southern capital of the Kingdom of Kush. The Kingdom of Kush spanned the period c. 800 BCE – c. 350 CE but, initially, its main capital was farther north at Napata. King Aspelta moved the capital to Meroë, considerably farther south than Napata, possibly c. 591 BCE, just after the sack of Napata by Egyptian Pharaoh Psamtik II.
