Lol..well Beard or no Beard..the must important thing is to be rich and endowed below...

Samantha124:
And I hated that beard on AKA, I wished I could shave it off...

I prefer a clean face.

Merch:
Which tribe have the biggest nyash in SA 🇿🇦

The Bantu....
Where are they

Samantha124:
But I'm not Zulu and you guys love Zulus..

Yes. I agree we love Zulus but so long as you are South African , that will do.

Creeper:


It’s not Central Africa.

Bantus migrated from the Eastern Nigerian and Western Cameroon axis - to other parts of Africa.

They were pushed out by the expansion and migration of the ethnic groups that occupy West Africa today.

Below is the Bantu expansion map

I often wondered why Nigeria is the most ethnically diverse country with, over 300 tribes, in Africa. This map gives us a clue.

Samantha124:
1. And lastly, the indigenous people of SA, the Khoisan.

Excuse me,have you watched Mr Bones?
If you have, which tribe are the characters based on?

Creeper:




There are still some Proto-Bantu groups in Nigeria. Tiv, Ekoi, Efik and Ibibio have varying levels of Bantu. And the Igbos have still have a small level of Bantu admixture.

West Africans have different migration patterns. Ancient West Africa was called ‘Sudan’. And there were some that expanded from the Mauretania and North West Africa area, after the empire built there collapsed due to flooding. They later built the Ghana empire and kept expanding. And rest migrated in different migration waves - from the present day Sudan/Ethiopia axis.

I believe there was also an indigenous gnome group in West Africa prior to the arrival of these new groups. But archaeologists are still trying to determine what happened to them.

The indigenous group would be the NOK culture. Am I correct on this?

Samantha124:
Honestly speaking, I don't know.. I don't pay attention to that..

Just checked your DP. You are very pretty.

Samantha124:
Zulus.. .. Their men also dance like that.

One thing I came to realize in all these pictures is south Africa doesn't have thick ebony skins...

callmevirus:



I hate Zulus they claim to be the main South Africans and they're very wicked

This is just a misconception. Zulu people are not wicked like you think. I have met many of them and they are not like what we were told. Yes, they started the xenophobia stuff but South Africans joined them and now people are blaming just Zulu. That's not fair if you ask me.

Let's stop hating on the Zulu people. They are nice, they are beautiful and they are strong.

YoungBlackRico:
Kinda like the xhosas more. And be like na dem plenty for una music industry

Na Zulu dominate the music industry

Samantha124:
Wow! Interesting... I didn't know anything about the Bantus coming from Nigeria.

I learned that they came from Congo.

So do the Tiv, Ekoi, Efik, and Ibibio identify as Bantus?

Yeah, there are old historical threads on Nairaland that discussed this extensively back in 2010-2012. It is not actually Congo but actually Cameroun/Nigeria axis. The Bantus may have been the remnants of the Wet Sahara civilization that spread out into West and Central African areas over 5000 years ago. The only reason Congo might be relevant is because the first wave of migrants stayed in Congo before a second group emerged and travelled downwards.

1Sharon:


And what is stopping them from dismantling those borders and going back to live how they were?

They can't,the white man is controlling their brains with a remote control🧐🥴

Lionessza6:


There's nothing called Bushmen in South Africa or any part of Africa .

For your education...

Samantha124:
We're just reserved people and love our peace.

I know this country inside out

Samantha124:
1. And lastly, the indigenous people of SA, the Khoisan.

The Gods most be crazy people

Samantha124:
That's nice..

Did I forget to say my finacee is a xhosa

Samantha124:
1. Xhosa

I love 1,6,7,9

Samantha124:
1. Xhosa

I love the black and white contrast

Zonefree:
Forget patriotism, South Africa get fine girls abeg.

See fine tall girl with tender skin.
No bleaching
No toothpick legs
No burnt knuckles like PH bolé
No protruded belly as a result of excess goat meat pepper soup and catfish pepper soup coupled with Smirnoff ice and hollandia yoghurt.

Nigerian girls are mostly short like fire hydrant. You hardly see a tall and pretty Nigerian girl.




God bless South African girls for me abeg. See as girl set and fresh like today's bread.

lol

Check the statistics on southafrica in terms of bleaching on the continent of Africa.

Samantha124:
1. Xhosa

They have the best.

Samantha124:
3. Tswana

How's this a cultural dress?

Samantha124:
4. Sotho

Zonefree:
The Xhosas are the TIVs of Nigeria.

there's a click in the pronunciation of that name.

Samantha124:
Unfortunately, I don't watch big brother.. So I wouldn't know.

Ok. But a kind reminder that I'm your spec. of a man.

We can still work things out.

Pack your load and go back to your country, Ghana

Hmmmm. Samantha has redefined news!
Particularly your Xhosa, looks culturally similar to Nigerian's Tiv.

So nice.

Let me run a National Geographic commentary on African Migrations during the dark ages .

The Xhosa were documented with archeological evidence to have migrated from the river Benue trough in Nigeria in 235AD from the Tiv Land and carry with them cultural similarities up to this day as witnessed in their food, dressing , marriage and folklores.

While the Sotho Migrated as a Fula community in Nigeria in 721 AD and first settled in Windhoek, Namibia before moving for food and shelter and finally settled in their present home in Joburg.

Emeskhalifa:


Yeah u.

Whenever I see your topic goes to front page, I quickly grab a prop corn coz I know the show is about to start

😂😂😂

And i dont do that intentionally - they have a way of just bringing out the worst in me very quickly. Im actually a very nice people, believe it or not 😂

Thankd for the appreciation.

Samantha124:
1. Xhosa

An insightful thread.

Samantha124:
Most of the time black South Africans just give general names.

Puleng could be Sepedi, Sotho, or Tswana.

Thembeka could be Zulu, Swati, Ndebele, or Xhosa.

Oh. That's cool to know.

Was a great fan of Rhythm City and Scandals tv series that year. That's how i got to love those names. Same for Soweto Gospel Choir.

Samantha124:
3. Tswana

The Tswana are the major ethnic group in Botswana.The country is actually named after them.Right ?
