New trend would be a good idea

But to that picture... Ask yourself, A nubian from Tunesia?

Amujale:


It's a well established fact that the original Tunisians are Nubian.

All the original communities in North Africa was Nubian communities.

Its important to note that apart from the modern definition of Nubian that the original North Africans belong, this term was used loosely to describe all melanated communities similar to the way Ethiopian, Kush, Blacksic and we would eventually adopt our given name Africa.

The name Africa predates any foreign intervention.

The claim is that our parents 'the phenoms' named the continent Africa, from 'aphrike' whilst they occupied Asia and Europe, calling their origin 'the land that is free from cold and horror'.

Can you direct me to the source of this information. i would like to read more on this "Yoruba King who founded ancient Kush"

The evidence suggest that our ancestors, 'the phenoms', named our continent 'aphrike' whilst they occupied Asia and Europe, calling their origin 'the land that is free from cold and horror', that was later Romanized into 'Africa'.

Amujale:
The new information from.TAO11 actually puts Yoruba as the founding Kings of the Kush kingdom, hold that thought for a while.

Me, Rashidi Runoko, Dr Ivan Sertima, Cheikh Anta Diop, Dr Henrik Clarke arent the first historians to suggest that there's a connection with the Nile Valley; olden day Arabians and Eurocentrics are the first to suggest this.

Below is a potrait of Nubian silk and produce traders.

The tribal mark you screenshot and posted isn't Yoruba tribal mark. Absolutely not.

Amujale:


I wouldnt be too certain.

These have been verified by various modern historians.

Olu317:
They are not bro. You can google picture of all Yoruba scarification. Beside, there are Yoruba descendants who don't wear scarification on their faces, except if one is abiku linked. I am sure Ileife art work has prove such exist at one time in that cosmopolitan city....



Cheers

You're wrong.

The people who published that evidence (my sources) are professionals that actually travelled to these places and affirmed for themselves.

These body arts are well known and documented by the real time historians that i posted earlier.

Furthermore, i'm Yoruba and can tell you without a shadow of a doubt that the images are absolutely correct.

Obalufon:
The image of supposed Yoruba woman is not yoruba woman but kokobiri woman of northern Nigeria

Obalufon:
scarification is recent in yoruba history my own lineage is a taboo to have scarification

Olu317:
Well, I am Yoruba too and scarification is a taboo in my own lineage too though I will post Yoruba scarification.

Amujale:


I have checked that myself, there are Yoruba who have that body art.

Yes Northern Nigerians have these. i.e Kokobiri, Gara e.t.c Yoruba use these as well. i.e Highlanders

I wouldnt post it without the correct verification.

Perhaps it goes to show how closely related the people of Nigeria actually are and that once we get rid of these foreign extremist ideologies, what remains is a lovely communion of brothers and sisters.

Linguistic Similarities:

According to the semiotician Ferdinand de Sausurre in his 1972 book called General History of Africa, the surest way to prove a cultural contact between peoples is to adduce linguistic evidence.

In what is commonly known as the Saussure theory.

Identical/Similarities between Yoruba and Ancient Egypt/Kush.

ℹ Mi (to breath) - Mi (to breathe)

ℹBi (to become) - Bi (to become)

ℹOmi (Water) - Omi (water)

ℹOdo (river) - Do (river)

ℹTa (spread out) - Ta (spread out)

ℹTan (complete) - Tan (complete)

ℹOkan (one) - Kan (one)

ℹKumo (club) - Kum (club)

ℹEre (python) - Ere(python)

ℹFa (pull) - Fa (carry)

ℹOruwo (head) - Horuw (head)

ℹWu (rise) - Wu (rise)


There are over 100 identical words that have the exact same meaning in Yoruba as is present in the Ancient Egyptian/Kush dialects.

Amujale:


For goodness sake, you are missing the point.

This thread isnt concerned about the argument about body art.

Nothing goes to waste, rather than search for a negative connotation, we seek to exploit in a good way the very clues meant as a means of identification.

Btw, assuming there are no body arts, how are we to determine that the Nubian woman is indeed Nigerian? Our parents knew that these things will come in handy today.


The history here is that Nigerians are amongst the West Africans who help create the Nile Valley civilisation.

What part of yoruba land are you from why is it facial scarification a taboo in your lineage ... ..my ancestors my forebears didn't have scarification..
