Abstract in brief

The study analyzes the relationships between Nubian and Egyptian populations over time by examining cranial traits and finds that early events before the Mesolithic period significantly influenced the genetic patterns of these groups.
It highlights that interactions such as trade, colonization, and strategic settlements along the Nile helped maintain genetic similarities between Nubian and Egyptian populations throughout history.
Overall, the research suggests that the population structure in the Nile Valley was shaped by a combination of environmental, linguistic, and sociopolitical changes over thousands of years.]
