Once He Got To Nuri
In the early 20th century, Reisner arrived in Nuri to dig into the burial chambers of Taharqa. He mapped out the other structures over there as well. The Egyptologist made a huge discovery during his time there. He found out that the groundwater that came from the Nile could make it very difficult to investigate the site any further.

He Did Not Publish His Findings
Despite this, he did not bother to publish the outcome of his investigation in Nuri. This meant that the site failed to get the attention that it could have received otherwise. Aside from that, it seems like Reisner did not think the Kushite kings and the Egyptian pharaohs were of equal standing from a racial perspective. It felt like he only saw their buildings as imitations of the older sites.
