The decorative program of the palace of Amanishakhete at Wad Ben Naga
Original language description
The present paper aims to present the evidence for the external and internal decorative program of the so-called Palace of Amanishakhete (WBN 100), a well-preserved structure of the Meroitic period, which was unearthed between 1958 and 1960 by the Sudanese expedition of Thabit Hassan Thabit at the site of Wad Ben Naga. The expedition uncovered a large number of objects, including fragments of relief wall decoration, which have remained largely unpublished, despite their potential for reconstructing parts of the internal decorative program of the palace. Since 2009, the structure has seen renewed excavations by the archaeological expedition of the National Museum, Czech Republic, aimed at answering specific archaeological problems, which provided - amongst other data - new pieces of information on the external appearance of the ancient structure.
