They documented Egyptian Nubian culture and heritage, among them proverbs, tales, lullabies, marriage customs, and moulid and mourning songs, as well as models of Nubian clothes, jewelry, and houses. This research has culminated in Maher Habbob's Nubian Proverbs, which presents the fruits of decades of collecting proverbs from his native Nubian region in Fadijja (Nobiin). The five hundred proverbs gathered in this volume give a vivid picture of the Nubian imagination and represent a priceless archive of cultural heritage threatened by ongoing assimilation and cultural genocide. The proverbs are presented in Nubian script, accompanied by a transliteration in Roman script, an a literal translation and paraphrase in English.Nubian Proverbs Dictionaries of quotationsbicsscSocial & cultural anthropology, ethnographybicsscNubiaAfricaNubiafastEgypt;Nobiin;Nubia;proverbsDictionaries of quotationsSocial & cultural anthropology, ethnography398.9Ḥabbūb Māhir1956-1351926BOOK9910567783103321Nubian Proverbs (Fadijja3141008UNINA
