The Holocene prehistory of Upper Nubia has long been poorly known due to the few research projects focused on this period. In comparison, Lower Nubia and the Central Sudan have been much better studied. In Lower Nubia the sequence of Nab ta Playa 200 km west of the Nile (WENDORF/SCHILD 2001), complemented by the results of the High Dam campaign of the 1960s (WENDORF 1968), covers all of the Holocene from 8400 BC to historical times (GATTO 2011a). In the south, Central Su dan is rich in sites from the Mesolithic and Neolithic Periods (from 7000 to 3500 BC) even if there is still a chronological gap between the end of the Neolithic and the 2 millennium BC (USAI 2016). Between these two aforementioned regions of the Nile Valley, more than 700 km apart, few studies concentrated on the prehistory of Upper Nubia until recently. This area, particularly its chronological and cultural sequence, remains poorly known even if some research has been or still is ongoing at different sites. Some of the research projects focused on Neolithic cemeteries of the 5 millennium that were identified south of the Kerma basin in Kadruka (REr NOLD 2001; 2006), in the Northern Dongola Reach (WELSBY 2001; SALVATORI/USA! 2008) or between Debba and Korti (PERESSINOTTO ET AL. 2004). Along the Fourth Cataract, the construction of a new dam between 2004 and 2008 led to the discovery of Mesolithic and Neolithic sites, which are available in preliminary publications for the time being (OSYPINSKI 2014). In the north, between the Second and the Third Cataracts, the excavations on Sai Island have revealed evidence of the Mesolithic, Neolithic and Pre-Kerma (GARCEA/HILDEBRAND 2009). Despite these discoveries, the picture is patchy and does not allow for a clear understanding of the cultural dy namics in this part of the valley. For this reason, a programme of surveys and exca vations has been conducted since 2000 in the area of Kerma, south of the Third Cataract, in order to build a chronological framework and to follow the evolution of human societies during the Holocene Period from the Mesolithic to the beginning of the Kerma civilisation. It has produced a large volume of new data that substantially modifies our perception of prehistory in Upper Nubia. The obtained results and the exceptional sites that were discovered are less due to the particularity of the re gion rich in remains due to its geographical location than a consequence of long term research.
由于很少有研究项目关注这一时期，因此对上努比亚的全新世史前史一直知之甚少。相比之下，下努比亚和中苏丹得到了更好的研究。在下努比亚，尼罗河以西200公里处的Nab - ta Playa序列(WENDORF/SCHILD 2001)，加上20世纪60年代大坝运动的结果(WENDORF 1968)，涵盖了从公元前8400年到历史时期的整个全新世(GATTO 2011a)。在南部，苏丹中部有丰富的中石器时代和新石器时代(公元前7000年至3500年)的遗址，尽管新石器时代末期和公元前2000年之间仍然存在时间上的差距(USAI 2016)。在尼罗河谷的上述两个地区之间，相隔700多公里，直到最近，很少有研究集中在上努比亚的史前。即使在不同的地点已经或正在进行一些研究，这个地区，特别是它的时间顺序和文化顺序，仍然知之甚少。一些研究项目侧重于在Kadruka的Kerma盆地南部发现的5千年新石器时代墓地(REr - NOLD 2001;2006年)，在东古拉河段北部(WELSBY 2001;SALVATORI发现/美国!或Debba和Korti之间(PERESSINOTTO ET AL. 2004)。在2004年至2008年期间，沿着第四瀑布修建了一座新水坝，发现了中石器时代和新石器时代的遗址，这些遗址暂时可以在初步出版物中找到(OSYPINSKI 2014)。在北部，在第二和第三大瀑布之间，西岛的挖掘发现了中石器时代、新石器时代和前克尔玛时代的证据(GARCEA/HILDEBRAND 2009)。尽管有了这些发现，但这幅图还是不完整的，不能让我们清楚地了解山谷这一部分的文化动态。因此，自2000年以来，在第三大瀑布以南的Kerma地区开展了一项调查和发掘计划，以建立一个时间框架，并跟踪从中石器时代到Kerma文明开始的全新世时期人类社会的演变。它产生了大量的新数据，大大改变了我们对上努比亚史前的看法。所取得的成果和发现的特殊遗址，与其说是由于其地理位置的特殊性，不如说是长期研究的结果。
