Question

Ancient Nubia was located in what is now southern Egypt and northern Sudan. Based on the map, which of these cities would not have been located in ancient Nubia?
A. Cairo

B. Wadi Halfa

C. Napata

D. Dongola

Answer 1

The answer is Cairo.

Answer 2

The key phrase here is "southern Egypt and Northern Sudan. Being that Cairo is in the northeastern part of Egypt, it would be the obvious choice. However, if it weren't so obvious, you could always pull up a more detailed map of ancient locations and compare it to a current one.
