Father Giovanni Vantini FSCJ's Oriental Sources Concerning Nubia, published as a field-manual for archaeologists of medieval Nubia, has long been a standard reference guide in Nubian studies. With the permission of the Polish Academy of Sciences and the Missionari Comboniani del Cuore di Gesu, we present excerpts from this monumental collection. Each author included in Vantini's source-book will be added to the list below as it becomes available for this source reader. Scholars of Nubian studies are aware of the acute need to revisit the editions and translations of the literary sources in Vantini's collection, and are invited to use the Medieval Nubia wiki as a forum for discussing these issues. Note that corrigenda and addenda to these texts will be gradually provided as more of them becomes available online. The entries already including bibliographic updates and remarks are marked with an asterisk.
The Sources:
Ecclesiastical Hierarchy in Africa
"Haismavourk" The Armenian Synaxary of Ter Israel
Coptic Documents of the 10th-12th Century
Coptic Scalae 12th-14th Century
