Nubian is one of the oldest folk cultures originating in the south between Egypt and Sudan. The origin of the word Nuba comes from Nub (Nubu) meaning gold in hieroglyphics and also derived from the ancient tribal leader named Nubati. Ancient Nubians shared in many celebrations and special rituals such as marriage ceremonies, Christmas celebrations, hunting celebrations, and many other occasions where dance was incorporated. Nubians are made up of many different villages of people with their own unique languages, such as Fadiga and Kenzi. Nuba has many different dances and each of them has a unique purpose and name, such as the Arajid dance, Balajeh dance, El kaf dance and many others. Nuba dances are mostly group dances where dancers do the same movements together.
