This article examines the role of Nubian political culture in galvanizing
public action around a return to “Old Nubia”. It explores the achievements of Nubian Return Movement, and whether taking part therein correlates with a degree of awareness and political culture. The analysis interrogates the conception of this return among young Nubians, using qualitative data and Clifford Geertz’s “interpretation of cultures” approach. The article concludes that the political values promoted by the 2011 Egyptian Revolution heralded the emergence of a novel political culture among young Nubians that has revitalized the return, but lacks the necessary tools to rectify the issue.
