Description of the site and research:

Dongola lies on the eastern bank of the Nile, halfway between the Third and Fourth Cataracts. It functioned for more than 1200 years, from the erection of the citadel at the end of the 5th century to the abandonment of the city in the 18th century. It was the capital of the kingdom of Makuria, probably founded by one of its first rulers who built here a city with massive fortifications. Palaces and public building were constructed on the citadel. In the middle of the 6th century, with the conversion of the kingdom to Christianity, the city developed further and extended beyond the area of the citadel. It experienced its heyday in the 9th–11th centuries, but an intensive urbanization process lasted till the 14th century.

The site covers almost 200 hectares. The citadel and urban architecture surrounding it were located in the southern part while in the eastern one lay cemeteries from different periods of the city’s functioning, including a complex of domed Muslim tombs. Suburban residences 100–120 m2 big extended in the north. Some of the houses had a second story, e.g., “House A” was furnished with a bathroom with heated water and wall paintings as well as a toilet on the upper floor. Close to this part of the site, a complex of pottery kilns and iron furnaces was discovered. Over a dozen churches were uncovered in Dongola, and there were two monasteries on its peripheries, including the magnificent Monastery of the Holy Trinity (Great Monastery of St Anthony) which stood about 1.5 km from the citadel. Inside were preserved unique wall paintings dated to the 11th–13th century. More than 100 compositions depict, among others, Christ, Mary, the Apostles, scenes from the Old and New Testament, dignitaries. The walls of the crypt of Archbishop Georgios, built at the beginning of the 12th century, are covered with Greek, Coptic and Old Nubian texts.

At the foot of the citadel stood the Cruciform Church, one of the largest sacral buildings in Makuria, and the Church of the Granite Columns which is considered to be a prototype of the Faras Cathedral. To the east of the citadel, a 9th-century monumental representative building, interpreted as the Throne Hall of the kings of Makuria, was preserved to its full height. It was converted into a mosque in 1317; this date is considered the beginning of the Islamic period in Nubia. The royal court left Dongola in 1364. The city became the center of a small kingdom which, however, still maintained active trade relations both with the Far East and Europe.
