Long time....

This thread is about studying our state of technology compared to the rest of the word during the pre-colonial era, not about comparing it to today's advances.

This was pretty obvious to everyone else. Is there something wrong with your brain?

No, it's you who has a malformed brain....


What's not obvious to u is that even ur Kings at that time procured cars and built modern houses with modern facilities and telephone.... They sent their kids to school....


Stop this nonsense

Why should christainity eradicate the Chinese in the first place

Rosskivvyy:
We should not study HISTORY because ''the world has moved on''?

Why not send a petition to all History and Anthropology departments and academia across the world to share this bit of wisdom, you little child with the brain of a grasshopper?

It's not about studying history....


U were rather thinking Our crude history is better than our refined present and the glorious future


That's reactionary and won't do u any good


Will only make u a fanatic and non conformist....

Rosskivvyy:
No technology is foolproof, even today. Radar can be jammed by enemy forces. That doesn't make radar ineffective.

Get rid of your low self-esteem and self hatred and quit using terms like ''nonsense'', and such terms, or I will cease responding to you entirely.

This thread is for adults, not conditioned children programmed to self-loathe.

cease the whole thread entirely, it's nonsense....


Grow up, stop living in the past....
The world has moved on bro


ciao

Rosskivvyy:
Stop arguing against scholarship done over decades before you learned to pee straight.

The talking drum use was far more sophisticated and nuanced than what you know today. You had tonal signatures unique to each individual who was trained in the practice. That no longer exists today in common practise. It was more 'real time' than letter writing. It was 'instant messaging'.

'Letter writing' had its own indigenous forms. One form known to the Yorubas for example, was the practice of Aroko. We will come to that later.

You are hear to learn about your ancestors, not to argue with them.

Your ancestors were happy to ditch all these nonsense u are praising here today....

during the Ekiti parapo war, several Yoruba generals used drums to announce their feats on the battle field.... such as Akinlola of Ibadan, the Ekitis used this against him by mimicking his war cry and drum beats .... it resulted to an ambush....

That means of communication is not safe bro....

Rosskivvyy:
I laugh when I hear people say that we lacked writing before the white man and Arabs came with their written text.

That we were ''illiterate''.

Do you know that it wasn't that we lacked writing, but that we had PASSED that stage of development?

Don't forget that it was us that invented writing, thousands of years ago. In ancient Kush and Egypt.

We taught THEM writing.

Just like we taught THEM speech.

Before we taught them speech, they were grunting like donkeys.

Which do you think came first, ''mama'' or ''mummy''?

''Papa'', or ''pops''?

.....Think about it......

To our ancestors in the 19th century, writing was a backward, obsolete form of communication open to abuse and distortion.

We had forms of record keeping and communication that were more advanced than writing.

Tell the mods to stop blocking my posts, and you will learn more.

so in ur head, talking drum that can be heard by anybody and the code deciphered is better than letter which is confidential


abeg stop this nonsense....

rosstriti:
Go back and read how it works. You need to be smart to keep up with this. Each person had their unique tonal signature and only the recipient could understand the message even if thousands of people heard the drum.

U obviously haven't seen a talking drum before takkless of hearing one play....


Anyone can decipher whatever a talking drum says so far as u speak the language....


All I am saying is that it's a very poor means of communication....

Take it or leave it

Nothing lasts forever....

What kind of rocket is that

How do u send messages with drums when anybody can eavesdrop

That's stupid tech....
