The authors of all Abrahamic text stole much of their content from other religious concepts without giving the due and deserved credit.

All manufactured religions are fake, false and counterintuitive.

Yoruba originate from Africa. Any connection can only be seen in those terms.

All the evidence points to the fact that Yoruba language predates all Asian languages and the notion that has it originating in Asia is not plausible.

During the times when Yoruba are enjoying their civilization, there are no people living in Asia.

The kind of study into languages that you embark on is of high importance, yet, its imperative to have an accurate starting position.

Theres so much now known about African history than ever before, thanks to the enthusiasm of great African historians, scholars and academics.

We know the specific periods when every ethnic group moved out of Africa.

For instance, are able to determine when the current stock of Asians and Australasians left the continent and their state of mind at the time.

The evidence suggest that Yoruba and their neighbours have been living and existing in Africa hundred of thousands years before people began to occupy the Asian continent.












Stop assumption bro about our ancestors ( Yoruba's) because, Yoruba were amongst the earliest descendants of the earliest ancestors and these people begun in Middle East. If you have a good case,,kindly give us readers concrete information about where Yoruba originated from. Precisely, using archeological , linguistic ,oral account, pictograph, hieroglyphs etc to buttress your point.

The Yoruba originate from within Nigeria and have existed throughout the region for thousands of centuries.

Kindly go and visit any local museums and or historical relief center, they you will find overwhelming evidence.

Check the dates of our artefacts and artwork in foreign museums, again, you will find overwhelming evidence dating back to 700 BCE. (its important to note that most of our precious art and artefacts are intentionally incorrectly dated)

Archeaological excavation and discoveries of ancient cites that are dated 1200 CE, details evidence of various highly urbanised areas.

There have been numerous recent excavation by local archeologist. e.g Professor Ogundiran e.t.c

I cannot believe we are even having this argument.

During the period of Empire, there was no people living in Asia.

There is zero posibility that Yoruba could have originated in the Middle East.

You see Bro, you have been unable to provide evidence to support your suggestion that Yoruba originated from within Africa but If you insist, on radiocarbon date, then show there is no proof supporting your view because you don't have iron production or concrete archeological or hieroglyphs or pictographs as your evidence to support the 350Bce of Yoruba people in Nigeria.This is seen in the reference of the same Professor Akinwumi Ogundiran that , In the, ‘Art in Ancient Ife , The Birth Place of Yoruba', by Suzanne Blier, where she said that an early Ife date of 350 bce. purportedly based on radiocarbon (Folster in Ozanne 1969:32), cited by both Ogundiran (2002, p.c.) and Drewal (2009:80), has been rejected by Frank Willett (2004) and others for lack of supporting scientific evidence

It affirm that Niger Delta and eastern Mali, were occipied before Ife because Niger acted as a conduit of trade from the Atlantic coast to the Sahel and thence to the Middle East (Davison,1972; Insoll and Shaw, 1997). So also, archaeological sites in the Niger Delta show that advanced economic development began much earlier there than elsewhere in West Africa. This is seen in early use of metallurgy. At one metallurgical complex, dated to 765 BC, iron ore was smelted in furnaces measuring a meter wide. Thus, the operating temperatures are estimated to have varied between 1,155 and 1,450 degrees C (Holl, 2009). Some radiocarbon dates for iron smelting in this region go back to 2000 BC (Eze-Uzomaka, 2009).Even radiocarbon dates for iron smelting in this region go back to 2000 BC (Eze-Uzomaka, 2009),which confirme with evidence that are seen in more than 700 artefacts of bronze, copper, and iron recovered from the Igbo-Ukwu site and dated to the 9th century AD.

No, it does not.

It means you are deviating from the point here.

Yoruba originate from within Africa.

Go and re-educate yourself about African history.

Stop with these nonsensical claims on history.

All the writers that make such claims have always been found to be of Abrahamic religious background.

There is zero evidence to back such claims.

The evidence given by people who claim that Yoruba migrated into Africa is unverifiable. Mostly based on foreign rhetoric and false perceptions are known to us as Abrahamic historiographies and historicities.

Its impossible for Yoruba to have migrate from the Middle East due to the fact that when the Yoruba and other West Africans are living in their glourious communities, there was no people living in what is now Asia.

Those are the historical facts, West Africans have been in existence before Ancient Egypt.

African people existed in Ancient Egypt before the Phenoms began to populate Asia.

The first people to populate Asia was the African.

African historians are now able to determine the specific periods when every ethnic group moved out of Africa, are able to determine when the current stock of Asians and Australasians left the continent and their state of mind at the time.

According to the academics on Paleoclimatic history,  the "Out of Africa" experience occurs during the period denoting the Wurum Inter-Stadio.

All the available analytical and scientific proof avialable to us enables these conclusions:

Humanity began in Africa and then they went forward to populate the rest of the world in what is commonly known as the "Out of Africa" phenomenon.

During the above events, Africans are the first people to explore and populate all the other 'continents.

Africans invented paper and they invented the ink pen.

Africans discovered the concepts of literacy.

Africans discovered the concepts of numeracy.

Civilization began in Africa and then it proceeded to trickle out to the rest of the world.

Everyone currently living on planet Earth all descend from Africa.

Obviously you are absolutely ignorant of the fact that Tariqh Sawandi says: ‘The Yoruba history begins with the migration of an east African population across the trans-African route leading from Mid-Nile river area to the Mid-Niger',which is contestable through Olumide Lucas's comparison .Even, Flinders Petrie classified these terra-cotta heads with similar objects found at Memphis, and already assigned to the 5th century BC.

But here you are referering to another yoruba, Toyin Falola who followed suit after the like of Akinwande Ogunrinde,Akinjogbin whose information on radio carbondate are based on reference of white scholars. Indeed! you are quite funny.

So, you say West Africa, predated Egypt? You must be a joke! Anyway, I hope you view is base on sentiment because there is no such information. In fact,the oldest fossil s in Jebel Irhoud, Morroco, Etthiopia, and Israel.

1.Morocco
The oldest Homo sapiens fossils are around 300,000 years old

2.Ethiopia
Homo sapiens fossils in two locations have been dated to between 195,000 and 160,000 years old

3.Misliya, Mount Carmel, Israel
Earliest modern human fossil found outside Africa has been dated to between 177,000 and 194,000 years old
The Radioactive dating of the fossil and tools at between 177,000 and 194,000 years old

Bro, I can't find the West Africa you desire so much! Perhaps, you have alternate researchers from Africa with a better radioactive dating .

You are a funny chap because of your love for Africa in defiant of fact.

And has been rejected by Frank Willett (2004) and others for lack of supporting scientific evidence.

Infact, Ifa corpus clearly doesn't relate to Africa but people generally and Near East . In doubt? Take for instance, Ifa mentioned places such as Ur-Or-Orun(sun)~-Heat land and Amororo(moon) but not in Africa. Have you any place or ethnic group apart from Yoruba and Near East with such name of places and description of sun in Africa?

Instead, you flip over and mention names that are not conversant with Yoruba IFAODU and Near East Link or Egypt's . Honestly, It is unhealthy to position Chiekh Anta Diop as an authority on Yoruba's history because the most prolific attention he drew to himself was his scientific line , that the ancient Egyptians were pure Negroes but never actually emphasis his research on Yoruba ancestry .Even if this is true to a large extent, that Egytian were darker skin and not Negroes from the earliest time but it was unfortunately for Egypt that she was conquered six affirmed or orey different times by different groups, even among them were Babylonia, Greek, Hykos , Roman etc . So what is your point of mentioning Diop when he has no knowledge of Ifaodu?

Are you aware that during the conquest of Egypt ny Babylonian empire , was the reason one of the King Ammon exised? Yes, because participated in the campaign against Egypt when Isrela was vassal state uunder Babylonia. Hezekiah's descendants was then named Ammun~Amon who was fathered ny Mannaseh, who was a son to Hezekiah himself. This information is a name of a Temple in Thebes which was destroyed. In addition, many ancient papyri discovered by archaeologists point at an Egyptian origin" of Yoruba , (Tariqh Sawandi: ‘Yorubic medicine: The Art of divine herbology).'

I've heard of Dr. Tariqh Sawandi and he is remarkable medical practitioner, and i love his work very well.

I dont have anything bad to say about him as an individual, a great guy.

Yet, adventure into history turns into one of those brainwashed scholar whose fundamental objective is to meet with the requirements of the Abrahamic religions.

An historian reknown for having Abrahimic religious motive, making use of those text to make most of his arguments.

The problem with using Abrahamic text as a source, makes the conclusions wrong.

Futhermore, he is an Islamic scholar, that further disqualifies him from being seen as a genuine African academic.

These type of authors are guilty of the same criminality befitting the authors of Abrahamic text themselves. Creating false an illogical narratives and trying to present it as real.

1.Cheikh Anta Diop: He authored 'African origin of civilisation

You see, I don't have anything against Cheikh Anta Diop for portraying Africa continent with his perspective of Afrocentrism but, was too emotional . Instead of being objective, he overstreched his view by diminutive of different people in Africa as if they were one ethnicity, which is the reason his book is restricted to people of your like mind even if one reads for criticism. Infact his position hasn't been so true so far with the assertion of civilization being from Africa because this view has been Knocked off outrightly with evidence of radioactive dating that put Göbekli Tepe as the oldest which was founded about 11,500 years ago.


You in doubt? Well the pride of Africa is the Temple of Luxor which is located on the east bank of the River Nile in the ancient city of Thebes and was founded in 1400 BC during the New Kingdom. This temple was dedicated to the three Egyptian gods Amun, Mut, and Chons. This old temple was the center of the festival of Opet, Thebes’ most important festival. Thus Göbekli Tepe unarguably world's oldest temple. You see,if you indeed want to go farther as an Orisa ,then dissecting through objectivity in your claim need be priority.

Nubia/Bantu people: darksin with often broad or flat nose

Ethiopia: anciently as dark skin with prolix hair or straight hair people with nostril that falls with the flat,broad or moderate

Moor/Maghreb/Berber:anciently with kinky or curly hair people with different types of nostril but mostly not flat nor broad

The purported people that were in America before Columbus were all groups included Mende~Bantu ~Olmec people,Oromo,Tigrayans, Amhara, (different groups),people of Indus valley etc. So no need for overstretching these peoples's books on Africa because Africa has NO one homogeneous language, which meant they were different groups from thousands of thousands years ago.

On this linguistic , do I position Yoruba as non Africans from inception because Apart from yoruba people , affiliated Egypt land and Near East, you haven't shown where Ur or Or is in East Africa, or West Africa that is populated by Bantu people who developed from Niger Congo line through Adamawa and to the other parts.
Why isn't this so from linguistic angle? Please don't claim 2000 years ago or 5000 years ago language mutilated because you are 5000% WRONG.

Trust me Sir, I know classical Hebrew purely with great humility do I translate it with cognate meaning from well researched classical Biblical Hebrew dictionary.

I've heard of Dr. Tariqh Sawandi and he is remarkable medical practitioner, and i love his work very well.

I dont have anything bad to say about him as an individual, a great guy.

Yet, adventure into history turns into one of those brainwashed scholar whose fundamental objective is to meet with the requirements of the Abrahamic religions.

An historian reknown for having Abrahimic religious motive, making use of those text to make most of his arguments.

The problem with using Abrahamic text as a source, makes the conclusions wrong.

Futhermore, he is an Islamic scholar, that further disqualifies him from being seen as a genuine African academic.

These type of authors are guilty of the same criminality befitting the authors of Abrahamic text themselves. Creating false an illogical narratives and trying to present it as real.

1.Cheikh Anta Diop: He authored 'African origin of civilisation

You see, I don't have anything against Cheikh Anta Diop for portraying Africa continent with his perspective of Afrocentrism but, was too emotional . Instead of being objective, he overstreched his view by diminutive of different people in Africa as if they were one ethnicity, which is the reason his book is restricted to people of your like mind even if one reads for criticism. Infact his position hasn't been so true so far with the assertion of civilization being from Africa because this view has been Knocked off outrightly with evidence of radioactive dating that put Göbekli Tepe as the oldest which was founded about 11,500 years

Cheers

Diop's conclusions is used by all the sensible African historians out there.

Kindly quote who that knocked Diop's conclusions and when.

Cheikh Anta Diop is a known Africanist NOT an Afrocentric.

His works are based not on guess work, but thorough analytical and scientific analysis.


All that you state above are the ones that needs refuting because they arent based on logical conclusions, rather are loosely based on out dated Eurocentric and Asian bias.

There’s need to understand that the way Africans operate in the ancient times cannot be crosschecked by making use of Eurocentric and or Asian bias text or viewpoints.

Furthermore, the greatest significance of "Gobekli Tepe" is shroud in the myth that it supposedly the birth place of civilisation, however untrue that may seem, it's sacred significance however, is in the fact that the people who built "Gobekli Tepe" are rightfully deemed the first religious gathering to come out of Europe.

Gobekli Tepe is known as the oldest sacred site in all of Europe. Africa predates Europe.

Every sensinle historian knows that Africa predates Europe, the "Out of Africa" experience that occcured thousands upon thousands of years ago thatbled to the populstion of Asia and Europe

African historians have been proven to be more trustworthy than their Eurocentric and Asian peers.

Humanity began in Africa and then they went forward to populate the rest of the world in what is commonly known as the "Out of Africa" theory

Africans are the first people to explore and populate all the other 'continents.

Africans invented paper and they invented the ink pen.

Africans discovered the concepts of literacy.

Africans discovered the concepts of numeracy.

Civilization began in Africa and then it proceeded to trickle out to the rest of the world.

Everyone currently living on planet Earth all descend from Africa.

Turkey is a transcontinental country, one of the few that are partially located in both Europe and Asia. The others are Russia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, and Georgia.

Turkey's history connects them to Greek, Persian, Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman empires.

According to history, mondern day Istanbul was formerly Eastern Roman Empire's (Byzantium) capital city known as Constantinople.

Istanbul was formely the Roman Empire's administrative capital, Constatinople


1) Yes it was a former Roman's administrative base at one time.

2 ) But Greek ruled Turkey earlier than Roman.

3) Infact The Levant and southern Anatolia (modern Turkey, where Antioch was situated) was a thoroughly international which were all controlled by Greeks.

4. The Assyrians,Persians,Egyptians, Babylonians, ruled Messapotamia~ Nineveh earlier than Greeks.

5) The point is that Roman Empire was not in existence when Göbekli Tepe existed.

Kindly dont misconscrue what is being said.

Nobody said Roman Empire was in existence then.

The point is that Turkey is classed as both a European and Asian country.

Gobekli Tepe is situated within the region they class as Europe.

There are various sites that are older within Africa.

Hence,
