Biography

Amaniastabarqa was a Kushite king of Meroë who ruled c.510–487 BCE.

Reign

He is the presumed successor of Karkamani, according to the sequence of the Nubian pyramids at Nuri where he was buried (no. 2). The pyramid was excavated by a Harvard University-Boston Museum of Fine Arts Expedition in 1917. As a result, many of the object belonged to him are now in Boston, including ushabtis, pottery, foundation deposits, stone objects and gold artifacts. A granite gneiss stela bearing Amaniastabarqa's cartouches, again from Nuri, is now in Boston too (acc. no. 17-2-1910B).

Other artifacts of him are in the Antiquities Museum of Khartoum, noticeably a gold pectoral.
