This article focuses on the last years of Mamlūk rule in the Nile Valley. First, the article briefly discusses the all-out war between the Egyptian viceroy Muhammad cAlī Pasha and the Mamlūks, and the subsequent withdrawal of the latter to Dongola in northern Sudan. This is followed by a description of the situation in Nubia and Dongola at the beginning of the 19th century. The main goal of the paper is to depict the fortunes of the short-lived Mamlūk statelet in Dongola, which existed throughout the second decade of the 19th century in a state of incessant war with its Shāyqīya neighbours, only to disappear due to the Turco-Egyptian expedition of conquest against the Funj kingdom of Sinnār led by Ismācīl Kāmil Pasha, son of the Egyptian viceroy Muḥammad cAlī Pasha, in 1820.
