Tony Spike: ^^^

God bless you, sir. The Bantus located around Southern and Central Africa areas are obviously the ancient descendants of the people around the Igbo/Western Cameroun areas. I once shared this on a thread about the Bantus in Africa on Nairaland (https://www.nairaland.com/1013080/origin-bantu-peoples-eastern-nigeria#12683153). One of the easiest ways of identifying Bantu-linked cultures language similarities in the spelling of man, person and child/children. Another way as you have mentioned is by observing the generic similarities in the naming of towns/cities/villages right from Igboland, through Congo, Angola, Namibia, Botswana and down to South Africa. There is an obvious and ingenious way the ancient Bantu migrants have left the trace of their existence all over Africa. It was as if they were fleeing from something very disastrous at the North of Africa. Here is a list of spellings for several Bantu groups around Africa, it's simply amazing. I got the original table from http://www.kaa-umati.co.uk/bantu_rosetta_stones_part_c.htm. I have however modified the table, based on my research, to include countries where these Bantu language groups exist. Enjoy!!!


BANTU GROUP SPELLING FOR PERSON COUNTRIES

Kiswahili-Bantu Mtu DRC, Tanzania, Angola, Mozambique, Kenya, Somalia and Rwanda

Bemba Bantu Muntu Zambia, DRC

Lingala-Bantu Moto DRC, CAR, Republic of Congo

Oshindonka-Bantu OMuntu Namibia, Angola

Zulu-Bantu Umuntu South Africa, Zimbabwe, Swaziland, Lesotho, Malawi, Mozambique

Luvale-Bantu Mutu Zambia, Angola

Rukwangali-Bantu Muntu Namibia, Angola

Setswana-Bantu Motho Botswana, South Africa, Namibia, Zimbabwe

Tsonga-Bantu Munhu Mozambique, South Africa, Namibia, Zimbabwe

Southern-Sotho Motho South Africa, Lesotho

Chichewa-Bantu Munthu Zambia, Malawi, Mozambique, Zimbabwe

Ruknyankore-Rukiga- Bantu Omuntu Uganda

Lega-Bantu Monto DRC

Thimbukushu-Bantu Munu Namibia, Angola, Botswana , Zambia

Kuria-Bantu Omonto Tanzania, Kenya

Shona-Bantu Munhu Mozambique, Zimbabwe, South Africa, Zambia, Botswana



and now adding,

Igbo Umu (Children) Nigeria (East)
Yoruba Omo (Children) Nigeria (West)
Bini Omo (Children) Nigeria (South)
Igala Oma (Children) Nigeria (Central)

Surprising, the ancient Egyptian way of spelling MAN is MTU. Guess what? The modern English word for it is also MAN.
I like that you found a web info source on the subject,studied it and then,MADE YOUR OWN ADDITIONS AND CHANGES TO IT....I really think getting the MEAT of the liguistics lays more in the actual speakers and nationals of the culture.......Its strange that after going down your list of bantu group words for "PERSON",they all seemed to have "U-M-U-T and M...they seem like parts of anagram logic that would allude to the word "HUMAN" which also has cognates of "MANU" there also,human and man refer to "PERSONS"....Its these kinds of expounded list you posted that will also help to show link between indo-european and other language groups of the world.....i posted a link on other topic that showed the extent of Bantu origins being in western nigeria and extending through igbo land and into cameroon,most maps stop at cameroon yet there are places like ancient AFIKPO and Nok in the north that place organized inhabitants in nigeria near the same time that bantu was scattering across africa and particular away from west africa as if they were chased or afraid.......there needs to be a surge of Africans that study world languages and morphology of linguistics as a personal hobby and i would like to see non university purpose publishings made by these enthusiast so the whole world beyond africa can see the continuum of world languages and the evidence of language array from africa........Good on you man...

The people of Lukumi/Anioma were the aboriginal Igbos of Ile Ife. See this link for details:

http://www.igbodefender.com/blog/2012/10/09/anioma-the-igbo-aborigins-of-ile-ife/
...........................................--------------------------------------------------------------------,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, I like this info. I was interested in the part that said yoruba came from the north and the igbo were already there........I once did a survey of my map oif africa with all the names of towns and cities and other named areas such as ancient unihabited cities such as djenne near Mali....What i noticed is that all the towns with names most similar to yoruba language were in the north of nigeria and moving west into mali and mauritania area....The area names most like igbo were into the congo area and also west of lagos into ghana and so on....There is an area in mali/maurutania desert called IFEOUNE (IFE-OUNE),also there is very near there a place called ARAOUNE (ARA-OUNE)..I was curious that old yoruba title was not yoruba and some stories say they called themselves by a name that means "THE PEOPLE" which in my yoruba dialect is said as "ARA ON" as in "ARA AWON",similar to ARAONE, and its interesting that yoruba settled in a new place that they called "IFE" also similar to IFE-OUNE in the north west deserts of africa....Igbo seems to have a lot more similarities to languages of congo and farther to south africa ( possibly the latest bantu links existing).The similarities are the ones that yoruba does not have to congo and south african area languages such as the use of "N" before other consonants such as in NWATOTO from south africa and NWATURU from Igbo...yoruba does not make those kind of phoneme uses...but yoruba and igbo do share some similarity as in KINI OR GINI to say "what"............ other evidence of yoruba from the north is the facial cut markings that are cut as tribal markings in tribes from north west of nigeria,some are the very same that appear on the head statue of the ancient prince of the IFE founding father...I will look for photos to post here ........[url][/url]
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OI1XF-AcuhY this youtube video shows the head with the same markings cut to the face of only yoruba kings and also lower north west african warriors of certain tribes

if it is about historical tracks,there has been Link of Bantu culture/language to have originated in western Nigeria through to cameroon area,and then spread all the way to south africa area and even beyond..bantu/language is researched to have existed before any other language known...In good theory,all africans can claim link to banto culture and language and origins in central africa of the area now called nigeria and cameroon......maybe the issue tends more to the people who occupy the area now....i dont understand why people would look to historical casting for reason to separate into more states or ethnic groups,when in fact history traces back to the state of Unity among all who then went separate ways...if history is what we look at for how to organize ourselves,the true story would give reason for why all humanity should remove the sense of borders and declare one world and one humanity...

I never knew how much he had actually been involved with,but i know he was a traveler who loved to be in his camel caravan that would strech for kiliometers across the deserts carrying lots of his wealth in gold and salt,he would arrive at strange places across africa and give away so much gold at the same value as salt and in some places where gold was not known or used,they prefered salt as more value...it was mansa´s great generousity that led greedy men of conquest to fix their eyes on him to plunder his fortune when he passed away......remember that the word "Salary" comes from the word "SAL" which neans "SALT"..."Salary" is from the time when salt was the great traded good of the empires on earth...people would be paid in salt slabs,and no more supriseing than people tradeing in cowry shells found in the dirt....Some people of various places would prefer to be paid in salt rather than gold...The places that produced salt still exist today and trade along the upper ranges of the niger river down to the south...There were many great lakes in sahel africa even bigger than the original lake Chad..They ranged from mali to niger and maybe even into Sudan..Its the dried lake beds that have concentrated minerals such as salt.....I suspect that the great "golden Monarchs" of ghana are related in ancient times to the early gold mining tribes that led to the rise of mansa musa tribe and the asante tribe..they all mine gold using the same technique....

Hydrogen fuel cell cars that exist today are done the opposite..the hydrogen is made by breaking down the water as you dscribed and then it is tanked in very extreme caution(very dangerous) then the fuel cell in the car recombnes the hydrogen with oxygen by a fusion process which makes energy and produces pure water from the tail pipe to fall on the road...maybe the process of refuseing the hydrogen and O2 is more energy giving than burnig hydrogen..I think the truth is that hydrogen burn is very dangerous and thus they use hydrogen in fusuion...Maybe they have figured safety solutionhuhYes lets see what you have to show on the new technology..

I would follow the advice of making links through the cvonsulate of your nation and the actual company that is hiring you...It is common parctice in proffessional employment,to give its senior workers housing in a secure compound with security and often include a car and driver in addition to base salary....$4000.oo is a good salary in Nigeria of over N600k monthly....If not renting and houseing is free and also car,then it is a good amount for family of 4..The one item in concern is childrens schooling..That can rnder $4000 a month quite small,if you are taking them to private/international schools for quality and safety...Many expats from well developed countries wont come to lagos or Nigeria to work on less than $150,000.oo a year with houseing security in compound and a car with driver included,and that makes it easy to put any children through quality schools...It is possible to send children to good public local shcools and suppliment with a private tutor at home...i myself went to regular govt shcools in Nigeria as a youngster,but they were the best ones in the city where the senior officials and abassadors sent kids to school..I then went to finish last year of highschool and enter university in USA with no problem in fitting into the USA curriculum,in fact i did better than most of the students when i arrived new there.....Try to be safe and make contacts through your consulate or embassy and the company hiring you.....remeber that a $1000.oo a month salary in nigeria is livable for a family and some even buy a car with that and feed children.....Nigeria is on the verge of another inflation round for food because of the massive floods,so prices will go up and many foods will become scarce,imports can cost more than they do in london and newyork...If you spend $500 a month on food in lagos,you will be spending as much as some earn in an entire month doing proffessional work at universities throughout nigeria....If you are from India,then lagos traffic and pollution will not be so shocking..

I was a soldier in the army and i prayed before going ,to never have to kill anyone there,and i never had to kill anyone there..And so far to this day i have not killed anyone ...YET....I met many christian people there and one born again christian i knew there was the most decorated junior soldier for being a very disciplined soldier with hi scores on all his performance test...he was not like the rest who smoked and drank alchohol and chased women when off duty and then tired and unfocused on duty....One member of my company unit was shot with minor injuries when he was drafted to drive the general for a few months in Somalia...Most of us in our Unit were assigned to not go to war but to the national cemetary to do the funerals of those who died in war ,and every military funeral gets a priest or rabbii or preacher or imam or babalawo as the family decides,and religious renderings are made as the soldier is laid to rest..i was part of handleing over 1000 military funerals in 2 years...the other duties we did were honour ceremonies for dignitaries of the pentagon and white house and national ceremonies in washington DC......Where people are dying and at war,there is where prayer and god is needed most,but then it is a personal choice to go to military as it is also a personal choice to go with or without god in life...In war,many non soldiers are killed and even outside national or regional wars,people kill each other just for the grudge of it....I did military funerals of at least 2 young soldiers who died while on vacation at home where things should be safe..one died in accident on the road in ice and snow storm...The other died when he returned home to visit from the army and the gangs who knew him before on the streets,shot him dead...one soldier was a woman killed by her lover off duty at home.....The next person to be killed on earth is likely to be killed in a church as is likely to be killed serving in the army...How many church bombings in Nigeria were afterwards assisted by people in the army,and does god approve of their army service to the church people under attack??

Europe was under the forcefull colonization of hitler at the same time (1940´s)that some european nations had africa and the americas and asia and more under its forceful colonization...England and france and Co. did not like the taste of it in their mouth or the feeling of it in their body and they fought to the bitter end blameing Hitler for all their suffering and still today they remember the war to fight hitler colonialism and the damage it caused them as they "BLAME" him for all the unwanted losses...Soon after the war,europe was so weak from the war that they could not handle their colonies so well and rebuild themselves,so the gave into the african and rest of the worlds demands to be freed...Where did hitler get the bright idea to colonize all of europe and then the rest of the world? Unfortunateley the british,french and others set the example before hitler.....And yet HITLER IS AT OFFICIAL BLAME IN EUROPE AND USA and the entire world for the very thing that europeans are shy to be blamed for upon africa and other parts of the world......In fact germany still is being made to pay repairs to many jewish people and also was made to pay repairs to england,france and Co who were bombed exessively.....Europe does believe in holding blame to those responsible to its degradation and forced colonization under germany and expects germany to pay and change..But some how they cowardly run from the same responsibility where they did the same in africa and the rest of the world...Not even a thank you for what they took.....Just give credit and thanks where it is due ,and reality is still the master no matter how much other ideas are being pushed around here

Also many times when something is stolen or someone is raped or assaulted,it is hard to get the police to come when needed ,and so people learn that there is not often help when needed ,so they do what they want to be appeased...I see it in other countries police-very fat and slow and look offended when they are asked to do their job while some police are cynical because so many cases are not serious while the accuser tries to make a bad word argument seem like murder,and so the police get attitude to not get serious until after the victim is dead....needing evidence in the law is a good thing and also the biggest problem to getting justice made...the judge and lawyer and jury are never at the crime scene and never witness the act and even of the hundreds who may have witnessed an act,very few will be made to testify...The justice is decided by the people(judge and jury) least likely to know about what happened other than by hear say...the fact remains that while many guilty go free in modern justice,Far fewer people are killed in innocense as we trade a few forgiven and forgotten guilty -so that less people are unjustly convicted ..

CultureNigerian Language Mix History by 19naia(op): 8:04pm On Oct 08, 2012
""Dialects form when groups of people who speak the same language move apart, and their languages change in different ways. At first, each group can understand the variants spoken by the other groups, but after hundreds of years of separation the variants may become mutually unintelligible. By that time, distinct languages have formed with cognates and similar grammatical systems. Swahili, for example, belongs to the Bantu language group. All Bantu languages trace their roots to Cameroon and western Nigeria, where linguists believe the ancestral language originated."" [url][/url]http://autocww.colorado.edu/~toldy3/E64ContentFiles/LinguisticsAndLanguages/AfricanLanguages.html I quoted the above paragraph from the URL i pasted here...
