Sudanese Indigenous Engineering and Technology uncovers the hidden legacy of Sudan’s ingenuity — from the pyramids of Kush and the water systems of Nubia to the living crafts of pottery, leatherwork, and community-based knowledge. Drawing on archaeology, engineering, and cultural history, this book demonstrates how indigenous technologies were not mere survival tools, but the foundations of sustainable civilizations.

At a time when globalization and climate change threaten fragile heritage systems, the authors show how Sudanese knowledge traditions hold solutions for food security, renewable energy, water management, and climate resilience. The book also explores innovative possibilities, such as using artificial intelligence to safeguard languages, music, and intangible heritage.

This is not a nostalgic look backward, but a vision for the future: if revitalized and integrated with modern science and policy, indigenous engineering can serve as a driver of inclusive development, national identity, and global sustainability.

A compelling resource for researchers, policymakers, and anyone interested in Africa’s past and its role in shaping a resilient future, this book affirms that Sudan’s cultural and

technological heritage is not just history — it is a living roadmap for tomorrow.
