CROWÉ: @ROSSIKE
Your account of the Olmecs is heavily biased in favor of African glorification.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olmec

This page doesn't seem to suggest it the way you do, it is clear from your post that you are pro African.



Are you going to tell me the first civilizations were African? blah blah blah, that was thousands of years ago and they were heavily religious and spiritual just like those from cough cough 500 years ago, no advancement. Africans may have taken the first step toward human advancement but they certainly didn't take any other steps now did they?
You have a problem, and this problem is mindset, we cannot help you and will let you live with your ignorance until you fade away.

ROSSIKE:

Please don't come in here to type ignorant ''maybes''. The Africans SAILED to the Americas as free men in their own ships and of their own accord, and actually INTRODUCED civilization to the Americas, thousands of years before Columbus. So kindly stop typing ignorant poppycock about them being ''brought there as slaves''. Thanks.
civilizations in the new world developed Independently from the rest of the world. anyway here are a few questions
how come you don't any similar architecture in the rest of Africa out side Egypt/sudan?
how they did not die from old world diseases?
why would Africans randomly sail out there, their had to be a reason?
what kind of boat did they use? because most African groups were not seafaring and your not gonna get there with this


did they also introduce human Scarface and cannibalism?


and if they did introduce "civilization" like you said how come they are not iron age? because most natives were stone age with bronze tools here and there and Africans were iron age

Wow I realize this is an old thread but some of the attitudes expressed here by some africans is crazy. I mean the idea that because Africa has fallen that civilization didn't spawn from Africa is hilarious.

Wow the idea that Africans stayed in Africa is very racist and very Eurocentric.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P9seE2rzFc8

There is more than enough evidence to support that Africans had the technology to go to other areas. People set out and colonized the world.
Re: The Africans Who Discovered America Thousands Of Years Before Columbus by mags5222: 1:36am On Aug 29, 2014
It isn't coincidence that all civilizations are some how connected to each other, this we can't ignore. So there is no civilization on earth that was created independent from others. There may have been some type of evolution but at the core pretty much the same.
Re: The Africans Who Discovered America Thousands Of Years Before Columbus by Garvey1: 2:54am On Aug 29, 2014
Rossikki is correct..Africans were building empires way before europeans...their first historian was homer circa 800 BC.That was after Egypt had peaked and was now in decline....Menes is king of the first dynasty 3500 BC.

Nothing at all do you realize that most of Africa has been purposely left out of research? I came across and article about the Niger pyramids. Now tell me something how come most people don't even know about it? People are under this idea that the rest of africa minus North were just primitive people. They weren't. There will always be a rise and fall in technology just like Kemit fail, Kush fail, Kerma Fail. etc..

Interesting topic. Thumbs up op, I advise every reader of this thread should get the movie titled "hidden colors" 1, 2 and 3.

For those who still doubt the impact of the black race in world history it's an eye opener

One of the rare Olmec heads without a helmet. We see the frizzy hair

Yep... Some of the features lasted with todays Mexicans but you can tell by the whole pyramid and religion stuff that the Olmecs were more recent Africans.

All I can say is that they are extremely ugly just as they still are today. They may have been seen as some sort of God by the local population but obviously they did not or were not allowed to stay around long enough to cause the locals to look like they do. More than likely the locals soon found them to be they same as they are today and summarily killed every last one before it could spread. I have always believed that Jesus visited everywhere there was mankind after he rose from the dead and that HE is the one who somehow they got confused and began to call Quetzalcoatl as false teachings took over. But the Bible tells us that the truth .. the GOSPEL of Jesus was spread thru out the world. The legend fits the story that Jesus will one day return but as usual it got mixed up with local stories and was therefore ruined. As to blacks being this great wonderful society anywhere EVER.. its just not possible because whereas we see so many cathedrals and wonders of the world EVERYWHERE except.. you guessed it. Africa. More than likely even the sculptors of these ugly heads were Indians. Perhaps they wanted to sculpt them because they too had never seen such as Africans are .. In all the world they alone look the way they do... such a difference than mankind ANYWHERE else. The sad thing is that you see blacks trying desperately to GRAB credit for EVERY invention and every idea there has ever been. I even saw in here where someone took credit for metallurgy when the Bible tells us clearly who began to work with metals and he CERTAINLY was not a negro. Also those people being talked about when this occurred were located in what is now the middle east. NO people did not originate in Africa either.. They were created in the Garden of Eden which the Bible. the WORD OF GOD tells us was located in the center of the crossing of four rivers.. Two of those rivers still exist. The Tigris and the Euphrates. The Negro's are the children of HAM who disrespected his father Noah BADLY and for this he and his decedents were cursed to spend their lives being servants to the decedents of the other two brothers. That would explain much.
Re: The Africans Who Discovered America Thousands Of Years Before Columbus by Nobody: 5:14pm On Sep 09, 2016
This is why I believe the earth split just a few thousands of years ago. Obviously everybody was African at that time.

These people may have been the gigantic humans of that age.

Even by the bible alone you have made too many assumptions

Ur ignorance stinks to high heavens! Open ur eyes, think out of d box, read real history outside d bible n learn/know d truth.
As an aside, just to wet ur apetite ( if u still have any left), do u no d biblical Israelites were black? Do u no Samson for example, was a black man with Dada? Don't have d time to enlighten u, help urself, Google/YouTube won't bite u, I promise.

Many have lost lots trying to bring to the light true history of not only America but other nations as well. It is only a secret to those whose knowledge comes strictly from the spoon fed stories taught in our education system that what we call black people were in the Americas long before Spaniards or Europeans. .One example is in America our state of California is named after a black, most likely Olmec, queen. This is common knowledge except to those who blindly digest the history you're led to believe. To cover this fact in light of the internet "knowledge is increased", they'll say she is probably a mythical figure. Yeah right. smiley
