الملخص EN

The present research gives an account pertinent to the role played by Archaeology and Paleopathology in shedding lights on diseases and health conditions prevailing in Sudan thousand years ago.

The archaeological evidence hitherto shows that ancient Sudanese during early times (Kermastate: 25001500- B.C., the Modern Pharaonic state: 15501070-B.C., Meroitic state: 900 B.C- A.D350 and the Christian era :5431504- A.D) suffered from a series of diseases and unhealthy circumstances encountered in their cultural, physical and biological environments.

The mortality rate was high and most people succumbed to death by middle- adulthood.
