Theres also another version that she believed crippled men performed better in bed so she would amputate POWs, treat their wounds and use them afterwards for sex before eliminating them.
ewwwww! Thank God for civilization, though such things still happen now at least people have the right to protest against such inhumane treatment.
Chai! A woman for that matter and people are still naming their daughters after her "Amina".
If the mothers' of these abducted chibok girl were to be like Amina, boko haram could have been history.

Subom1: 3. Makeda (Queen of Sheba) from Ethiopia. According to Ethiopian tradition, Makeda (10th century BC), the Queen of Sheba, had a son, Menilek I, by king Solomon of Jerusalem, thus establishing the "Solomonic" dynasty of Ethiopia that ruled, with a few interruptions, until the deposition of Emperor Haile Selassie (q.v.) in 1974. Her name and the location of her kingdom are vague to historians, but in Ethiopic her name means "not thus", as when she announced, "not thus is it good to worship the sun, but it is right to worship God.

In the sixth year of her reign she learned from her head trader of the existence of a wonderfully-governed kingdom, Israel, and determined to visit its king and observe his methods. Her caravan took about 10 months to get through the Ethiopian mountains to the coast, cross the Red Sea and sands of Arabia. King Solomon received her cordially, and after six months' study she concluded that his rule was successful because of the affection and respect he inspired, his organization of government, and his fairness and humility. He convinced her that Ethiopia should relinquish worship of the sun, and adopt worship of God, creator of the Universe. 

As she prepared to depart it occurred to Solomon that he could beget a child from this beautiful woman. He implied that he had yet another art of government to teach her, provided a great banquet, and had her food liberally peppered, and her drinks mingled with vinegar - then suggested she should spend the night. "Promise you will not take me by force," said Makeda. Solomon swore by God that he would not, if in turn she would swear not to take anything that belonged to him. 

When Makeda became thirsty in the night, she drank water from a goblet placed at her bedside. Solomon, from his hidden vigil, saw her drink, and immediately claimed her - she had taken his water. 

En route home, nine months and five days after leaving Jerusalem, she gave birth to a boy, whom she named Bayna Lehkem ("son of the wise man"wink. Despite the obvious loss of her virginity (a woman could be queen as long as she remained a virgin), Makeda continued to rule Ethiopia. 

I know people who say this woman was an Ijebu ancestor. It's possible tho, seeing how awujale says his ancestry is from Nubia(North Sudan and parts of Ethiopia)

they wore neither wigs weaves nor perm; all natural. With self love and knowledge our sisters can perform wonders. Right now most of them are fake, stuck on self hate and excessive b*llshit. Go figure.

HandOfChukwu: It was found, by a white female Egyptologist but she was banned from Egypt by Zahi Hawass, the Egyptian governments appointed director of everything to do with Ancient Egypt for telling everyone that Nefertiti just like all of the Ancient Egyptians was a black African.

Non-blacks(oyinbos) don't like to admit the Egyptians were black because they taught the Greeks and Romans everything they know and even then they still couldn't understand it all. If they have to admit they were black they also have to admit THEY are inferior and black is superior, know your history.

Interesting!! Please do you have any link so that I can learn more.

There are more articles about African history on that site as well that everyone on here should read, if you don't know your history then you won't know who you really are, that's how is was designed by the dirty racist oyinbo colonists. This is why Africa isn't on top of the world like we used to be. Black is King.

Re: African Queens by Nobody: 3:37pm On Jul 16, 2014
Queen Nzinga is my favourite.

However, I'm surprised no one mentioned, Queen Tiye, Akhenaten's mother and the grandmother of King Tut.

Regardless, most of the African cultures that built civilisations had great queens...and the list is endless.
