American Indians and Nubians are entirely different cultures with different backgrounds both spatially and timely. Yet, these two indigenous cultures, that apparently had no contact with each other, experienced similar conditions of exile as a result of building dams in their homelands. Both American Indians and Nubians suffered from forced migrations which are extremely related to water. As a result their lives experienced an ultimate and deep anthropological change. Though numerous studies have been conducted on these two cultures' literature, little attention has been paid to comparing the similarities and differences between them. This article aims at explaining how American Indians and Nubians react towards their environment and the atrocities they experienced. In addition, it intends to explore the subject matter of building dams as an aggression to nature and natural elements, especially water, as well as being the reason for many injustices faced by American Indians and Nubians in general and their women in particular.
