Georgios I (also George I; Arabic: Firaki) was a ruler of the Nubian state of Makuria (c. AD 860 – 920). The events about the king are preserved in the writings of Egyptian historians al-Maqrizi, al-Balawi and Ibn Taghribirdi. Their description of the events is not always conclusive and they provide contradictory information at several points, making it difficult for modern historian to reconstruct the events.
