Site Museum, Great Enclosure, Musawwarat es-Sufre, Sudan, North-east Africa
Despite severely limited funding, protective casings, roofing structures and sand barriers were constructed, restoration measures undertaken and a site museum erected during the 1990s and 2000s. Here intricate Early Meroitic architectural decoration is displayed in a protected environment. This is one of two columns depicting a striding deity (unique to this area) which have been restored.
