In fact there are today two towns bearing the name Sennar. Sennar Junction,the older one, which represents an actual continuation to the ancient Sennar, both in time and geographical location factors, although the word junction came from the fact that many railways intersect at it, as being in the heart of the country, which accompanied the invasion of Sudan during the British colonisation of Sudan by the end of eighteenth century. The other is Sennar Al-Madina (i.e Sennar Town) that located beside the Sennar Dam as stated previously. Actually it was built over the ruins of a small village called (Mok-waar) which was very famous in the former cultures of the tribes of African origins who were living there before the arrival of Arab tribes to the Sudan.
