Beschreibung:
Initially based on map IX from the book "The Kingdom of Alwa" (see the first four versions of the map to see the faithful copy).[1] The original map had several problems, so I decided to modify it. 1) Zarroug had Alodia extend as far west as Darfur. However, there is still virtually no archaeological evidence supporting this assumption.[2] 2) The exact nothern border is still desputed; it is generally placed between Abu Hamad and the confluence of the Nile and the Atbara.[3] 3) Zarroug shows all regions west of the Nile as part of Alodia. However, the traveller Ibn Hawqal explicitly stated that parts of the region west of the White Nile were part of Makuria. The Nuba mountains were probably part of Alodia, hence I included stripes and a question mark for the area between the confluence of the two Niles and the Nuba mountains.[4] 4) There is little evidence that the Bayuda desert (between ed Debba and Omdurman) was part of either Makuria or Alodia.[5]
