Abstract EN
The study of Post-Medieval and more recent periods has received limited attention in the Sudanese archaeology (Adams 1987; Pillips 2004, 58; Edwards 2003; 2004), although, this has begun to change with an increasing interest in the archaeology of the wider Sudan itself.
The present study aims to record in detail all archaeological features and remains at Mura village, northern Sudan to shed more lights on its history as well as to explore the landscape of the study area.
The study documented different types of archaeological features in Wad Beliel cemetery, which includes four types of burials; Ordinary graves, Gubbas, Mastaba, and Binaya.
As well as recorded a medieval box grave cemeteries beside the Islamic cemeteries in Awlad Afugara Cemetery.
