Disputing both the Nubia image of twentieth century Egyptology and the Herodotus interpretation of traditional Quellenkritik , the author traces back the Aithiopian information that was available to Herodotus to a discourse on Kushite kingship created under the Nubian pharaohs of the Twenty-Fifth Dynasty and preserved in the Ptah sanctuary at Memphis. Insufficient for a self-contained Aithiopian logos, the information acquired by Herodotus complements and supports accounts of the land, origins, customs and history of other peoples and bears a relation to the intention of the actual narrative contexts into which the author of The Histories inserted it. 410 0$aMnemosyne, bibliotheca classica Batava.$pSupplementum ;$vVolume 368. 607 $aNubia$xHistory$vSources 676 $a939/.78 700 $aTo?ro?k$b La?szlo?$f1941-2020,$01074124 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910790906003321 996 $aHerodotus in Nubia$92571454 997 $aUNINA
