The Yuribanies or people of Ayo, have less of the peculiar Negro features than almost any other natives of tropical Africa. . . . page 55. Which would suggest they are foreign to the tropical land. There are very many disclosures in this book written from Eurocentric perspective but it confirms also many oral histories and accounts told from an Afrocentric view.

Negro_Ntns: The Yuribanies or people of Ayo, have less of the peculiar Negro features than almost any other natives of tropical Africa. . . . page 55. Which would suggest they are foreign to the tropical land. Actually if they have a tropically adopted body plan, then they wouldn't be foreign to tropical land in the sense of having come there at some late (rather than prehistoric) time, although of course the writer could not have known that at the time of his writing. As for the so called "peculiar Negro features" it may not have occurred to this particular author that different ethnic groups in Africa could have different unique features regardless of admixture with non-black groups, but other European writers in the same century and other centuries had noted that certain African groups did seem to have different/distinct appearances. |
