The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Near the site is a group of villages called Bagrawiyah.
- This city was the capital of the Kingdom of Kush for several centuries from around 590 BC, until its collapse in the 4th century AD.
- The Kushitic Kingdom of Meroë gave its name to the "Island of Meroë", which was the modern region of Butana, a region bounded by the Nile, the Atbarah and the Blue Nile.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Meroë article was read about 72,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 73 and blocks with 77: each hit it takes is cut by 31 %.
