Hamadab

Hamadab is the name for an ancient city of ruins located in Sudan. It appears to have been abandoned 4th century AD. The name is borrowed from the nearby village of al Dumat Hamadab, as the ancient name of the city is initially unknown. The ruins lie about 3 kilometres south of Meroë. They consist of two hills, 200 by 250 metres ( ft ×  ft) in width and length, one being 500 metres in height, and the other being half of that. The two hills are separated from each other within the Nile.

Located at 16.9117, 33.6919 (Lat. / Lng.), about 3 miles away.
