Kush or Cush was a civilization centered in the North African region of Nubia, located in what is today northern Sudan. One of the earliest civilizations to develop in the Nile River Valley, Kushite states rose to power before a period of Egyptian incursion into the area then themselves established an Egyptian dynasty, the 25th Dynasty in 775 B.C.E. ruling until 653. The civilization of Kush was not merely derivative from Egypt but represented an indigenous culture which also incorporated elements borrowed from deeper into the South of the African continent.

The Biblical Kushites originated on the North-Eastern side of the Persian-Gulf in southern-Mesopotamia. According to the Hebrew-Bible they were ruled by a great warrior-king called in Hebrew NIMROD, but could have been the MARDUK of secular manuscripts.
