Sudan · Africa · 19.93°N, 30.55°E

Sabu is a village located in the Nile Valley of northern Sudan approximately 600 kilometres northwest of Khartoum. It is best known for the nearby Sabu-Jaddi site containing hundreds of Neolithic-era rock-art panels depicting giraffes, New Kingdom ships, and Christian churches. The site has yet to be systematically studied by archaeologists and is currently threatened by the $705 million Kajbar Dam project, which scientists say will flood the site within six years.
