Scripture please?
There is no scripture that would be in agreement with the dates of this link that you posted.
Based upon my research, the Bible does not put the first civilization beyond the 6000s BC.
In regards to the scripture about CANDACE in Act 8 and in reference to what you have shared, this is very interesting.
i do agree that the Kerma civ. emerged out of an ancient pastoral culture of Ta-sety; SETH LANDS [also the land of Sheba] but the dates are off in regards to the Bible. Secular authors cloud the issue of the distinction between the Kerma civilization and Kush.
And this further confuses the issue of CANDACE, the queen of the Ethiopians listed in the Book of Acts.
According to what you have provided, it even shows that the background of the name CANDACE shows foreign influence upon the land of Africa and this is not made clear byway of secular authors. The authors in the Book of Acts are showing by listing the name of CANDACE, that there was a foreign influence in the land of Ethiopia and this goes far back in time to the ancient Kush people embracing foreigners from the east.
The following link might help clear some thing up that I mentioned in another thread.
Kerma is the area which was known in antiquity as Ta-Sety (The Land of the Archer's Bow) and is perhaps Africa's earliest known civilization.

What’s clear is that Kerma’s civilisation emerged out of an ancient pastoral culture that had flourished in that part of Sudan since at least 7000 B.C. when the first settlements were established...– dating back to 7500 B.C....

What then was the biblical "land of Sheba"?
