It is one of the oldest written indigenous African languages. The Miracle of Saint Mina, most probably written around 1000 A.D., is a classical miracle story featuring one of the most well-known Egyptian saints. This publication features a translation of the text into one of the remaining modern Nubian languages, Dongolawi-Andaandi, by El-Shafie El-Guzuuli, thus establishing for the first time a link between the Old Nubian literary heritage and the contemporary colloquial language. The Old Nubian is also accompanied by a revised translation to English and a grammatical analysis. 1 01 05 2012 978-90-817091-3-2 punctum books The Hague/Tirana https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/ Co-Access 10.2307/jj.2353912 10.21983/P3.0216.1.00 https://punctumbooks.com/titles/the-miracle-of-saint-mina-gis-miinan-nokkor/ https://books.punctumbooks.com/10.21983/P3.0216.1.00.pdf https://books.punctumbooks.com/10.21983/P3.0216.1.00.pdf https://books.punctumbooks.com/10.21983/P3.0216.1.00.pdf https://books.punctumbooks.com/10.21983/P3.0216.1.00.pdf https://books.punctumbooks.com/10.21983/P3.0216.1.00.pdf https://books.punctumbooks.com/10.21983/P3.0216.1.00.pdf
