Option D. The Nubians belonged to a unique ethnic group who originated from the central river of Nile.

Nubians and Egyptians shared the identical stone art called pharaohs and they were buried and interred with a stone arrow which symbolizes their skill in archery.

Nubians are considered to have followed the Egyptian strategies of ruling and we could see a few pharaohs which originated from Nubia. Research scholars say that Nubians absorbed the culture heritage of Egyptians and both the cultures were non-distinguishable.
