Did African historians document what happened that year? Look at ancient China, much of their history is intact because from dynasty to dynasty, they had scribes whose job was to document Palace activity.
I'm sure African Kings were just interested in making money, and marrying more wives.
Honesty bro, I'm really shocked reading so many comments here. Are we so lost about the so many terrible events recorded in history that this one appears a 'lie' to us?Abi because this article is history intertwined with science which they fear so much? Anyway, I've noticed most Nigerians forget so fast. Perhaps our African ancestors were mostly Nigerian so they hardly kept records of those events. The ones they kept sef we don't know and don't want to know. Tell them about 2020 (which is not close to the worse in history) a few years from now and they'll probably tell you it's a lie, that nothing happened.

Even the Nigerian Civil War was so devastating. Those who think they are presently living in a terrible era misinformed themselves. Those yearning for war should ask well.

I believe we started from year 1.....now is year 2021..and there are so many things we don't really know as humans....I doubt if anyone living now we live up to 3021...and come 3021 those living by then will be told about covid 19 and they will doubt it...There are so many things that is hidden in this world that we don't know and can't know but the Westerners have a clue because they are researchers and they keep records....I strongly believe humans lived in the 200 or 1300....I once googled the history of marijuana and I was amazed the year I saw....
You think well too bro, but if I may correct you a little, 2021 is in the AD's, we had several years in BC's before your 'year one' o. We only started counting all over, that's where AD started, so we didn't start from your year one(AD) the way you put it o. We started long long long long looong ago before your 'year one'.

Instead condemning them, you should at least thank those African Kings for helping in producing your grandparents by encouraging young men to marry more wives.
Besides, if no records existed because they were not kept by the African Kings as you said, how did the scientists came to know that the experience of the time was all over the world same, and thereby concluding that those years were indeed the worst in the entire human history?

If the Invaders hadn't destroyed the library of Alexander the Great in Egypt would have kept the records.. But fear may have gripped the ancient Egyptian from writing this since they had been using papyrus to record events as far back as 200BC..

No naaw, you started well, now you want go the way you previously condemned. Alexander the great, Plato, Julius Caesar, Confucius etc were all born BEFORE CHRIST (BC). On the other hand, ANNO DOMINI (AD) which means 'year of the Lord' are events which started counting from around the birth time of Jesus to this day (2021 AD). If you don't believe any of those guys existed in the BC's even though there are documented accounts of them, you probably shouldn't believe in ALL the books of the old testament because they were events before Christ (BC). Only events told to you about Jesus, Nero, Mohammed (500 + years after Jesus), Hitler, Napoleon, Saddam, Boko Haram, etc should matter then since they all happened in the AD's which you believe was the beginning (year one) , the start of mankind? C'mon bro, this is elementary history. You wrote well, made sense, but your very first line about dating was not right.

How did you come to this conclusion. African historians did not record the impact of that event on their communities, so there are no African sources to incorporate into this historical research.

The way you mentioned African historian is funny as if such existed in the past
Re: Why 536 AD Was ‘The Worst Year To Be Alive’ According To Researchers (Photos) by sivel(m): 8:05am On Jan 19, 2021
That is it. Africans depended on oral tradition. Our knowledge was passed by word of mouth from one generation to the next. Is there any Sub Saharan African country that can give you any record of events plus 200 years ago?

Of course, it's funny. But I believe we had historians. Just that the histories were passed down orally and through ballads and storytelling. Nothing was written down. So they are lost.

These silly scientists just don't know when to keep their mouth shut, because they can't admit for once that they don't have the answer to everything.

Really, so a volcanic eruption is capable of plunging two continents in total darkness and freezing temperatures for nearly two years?
Are you educated?
Do you know what one single volcano can do to a continent?
Please go and make a research then come back
