Best Answer

First of all, Meroë is in Sudan, not Egypt, and was historically part of Nubia or the Kingdom of Kush, not ancient Egypt (save when Ancient Egypt was conquered by Kush).

Second, Meroë was a city in ancient times and often the capital of Kush, but today it is simply an archaeological site. There is no major settlement near Meroë.
