codemaniacs: @logica is not using religious books to understand History. If there was no place called Egypt or Israel or Middle-East before the invasion of Africa, tell us what those places were called, and it affects the point he is making that Africa is the origin of the Judeo-Christo-Islamic Western Triad that has been turned against Africans. https://www.amazon.com/African-Origins-Major-Western-Religions/dp/0933121296 |

oluamid: It was not Arab Scholars; that is an alternate poison created by european colonialists for African minds. It was African Scholars who had adopted Arab language and Islamic religion to transmit African Knowledge during the Moorish Occupation of Europe(Moor, Maure, Moore means Black).That is how Spain & Portugal, european countries closest to Africa (not close to Arabia), became powerful enough to share the World for themselves.

These wild warring Caucasian tribes did not establish any civilization to pick up after they brought down the Western Roman Empire. As a result of there being little to no intellectual stimulation in Europe the continent fell into the Dark Ages until the 8th century C.E. when the Moors arrived into Europe from Africa. The European "Renaissance" was only possible through this African Muslim cultural domination for 700 years in which highly advanced and civilized cultures (based largely on the recollection of the advanced knowledge from ancient Kemet or "Egypt" that the Greeks stole/plagiarized and Westerners blatantly ignore the fact that they did just to attribute those contributions to a late Indo-European people) permeated throughout Western Europe via what was Muslim controlled Spain.

"Mary Richards-(Lidan) (Tonkawa)" Photo by Rinehart 1898. Until the 19th century the Tonkawa were hostile to the Lipan & other Apache tribes, & this fact kept them generally at peace with the Comanche, Wichita, & Hasínai, whom they often joined in Apache wars. Relations with the Comanche and Wichita were frequently strained. In the 19th century relations with these groups were reversed,with the Tonkawa then being unusually friendly with the Lipan & hostile toward the Comanche & Wichita. https://www./489485053234431863/ 3 Likes 1 Share |

BASQUE AS NIGER-CONGO By GJK Campbell-Dunn M.A. (NZ), M.A. (Camb.) Ph.D. In this account we will systematically compare Basque morphology and sounds with Niger-Congo. The evidence will demonstrate that Basque, without doubt, is a Niger-Congo language. Basque is a member of the Togo Remnant (now Left Bank New Kwa), which was once a major Group. Basque is especially close to Akpafu. The Togo R. people travelled by ship to the Canary Islands and up the coast of Spain to the Bay of Biscay where they established fishing settlements. The genetic data (Bertranpetit & Cavalli-Sforza 1991 : 55, Fig. 1, first principal component) locates Basque genetic material in a semicircular area around the Bay of Biscay, which was settled at least from the Palaeolithic Period. The Niger-Congo cognates are taken mainly from Westermann (1927) and Mukarovsky (1977). For Basque our main sources are Trask (1997), The History of Basque, and Aulestia and White (1992), Basque-English English-Basque Dictionary. Other authorities are referred to in the text as relevant. Typographical Conventions On this web page schwa is represented by the character 3, and a palato-alveolar fricative by the combination zh. Numerals Numerals are resistant to change over time and are a good indicator of language relationship. The Basque numerals contain some fossilised Niger-Congo morphology. The word "one" bat in Basque, is related to Niger-Congo Nde i-bal, Mbofon e-ba, Guang ba "one", Gurma ba "one", Gola ba and so on. (Johnston quotes forms with initial m in this word.) The final -t is a singular marker (things), as in Kebu (Westermann 1927 : 106): gobi-di "bone", e-ko-bir "bones" (with Basque -t from final -d). Fortis and lenis plosives are used grammatically in Kebu, a Togo R. language. The word "two" bi, bi-ga, bi-da in Basque relates to Bantu bili "two" (Johnston 1919 - 22 : 32), and ultimately to Niger-Congo bi "breasts", which often has an l suffix. It is more closely connected semantically with Niger-Congo bali "two" (twenty-two reflexes in Westermann). The -ga, -da are "suffixes". Root da means "finger" in Niger-Congo. Basque "three" hi-ru, hi-ru-r is similar to Etruscan ci "three", with k > h again (+suffix). This sound change h > # is regular. Niger-Congo ki > hi is from kiti (Westermann 1927 : 288) "middle" (of the hand), which may be reduplicated to titi, kiki. Compare Avatime ku-ši "middle". The r- suffix is an old plural. Compare e-ko-bir "bones" cited above, with plural -r (< -t). For the change t > r in Togo R. see Westermann (1927 : 104). We take hirur from kitu-r. Compare Akpafu i-ru "five" with Avatime o-tu, Nyangbo i-ti, Kposso e-tu "five" for the change of t to r. A phonological parallel with Akpafu in particular. Basque "four" is lau, lau-r, Niger-Congo na "four". We have a sound change n > h > # (with loss of what was once intervocalic n? after a prefix). An l occurs in Nyangbo and Ahlo, both Togo remnant languages. Compare also Temne -aŋle (Wilson), Igala ele, Ishekiri meere (Armstrong 1967 : 63). The base form is na. The same plural suffix r may occur as in "three". Basque for "five" is ba-st, bo-r-tz. This is Niger-Congo bua (> bo) "hand", and identifies "five" with the hand, since the hand has five fingers. Niger-Congo extensions of this word occur Efik bok, bak, Mossi bonko, baγado, boγo, boγo-re (with old plural suffix) Gurma boγu, Kissi boka. Bantu has voko "arm". The final -t (singular) is due to the "hand" being singular, though having five fingers. The word for "six" is sei-r, sei in Basque (as in Italian). The form seir has the old plural in -r. "Bantu" (Johnston) has sambω, sasatu, sasaba. Niger-Congo ta "hand" should be considered as the source. This root goes to sa in Tschi, Agni and is assibilated in Baga to ke-tsa. Delo has n-sia. Basque zaz-pi is "seven", Johnston's "Bantu" sambω, sambω-bali. Similar considerations apply. The za- is for ta, sa "hand". The -pi is bi "two". See Westermann (1927 : 110, 9), bi (> pi). "Seven" is 5 (hand) + 2. Basque "ten" ha-ma-r is from Niger-Congo ka "hand" + ma "end", and refers to the end of both hands [-r plural ]. "Eleven" is ha-me-ka, "ten big", hamar + ga "big". "Twelve" is ha-ma-bi, "ten + two". "Zero" or "nothing" is Basque hu-ts, from Niger-Congo ku "thing", compare French rien "nothing", from Latin rem "thing". The same word is used for "one" in Etruscan. The Basque for 1000 e-hu-n is allegedly from Gothic. The prefix e- often precedes this word. Root ku means "big" in Niger-Congo, then "big number", i.e. "ten" or "one hundred". Bowili kuwa "ten", Ewe kpi "much", Igbo okpi "big", Bulom akpil "many". Niger-Congo i > Basque u. Bantu kumi "ten". A Niger-Congo solution is to be preferred. The attachment of suffixes to the numerals is a Niger-Congo feature: bat, batzu (pl), bi-ga "two" (ga "big", hiru-r "three", lau-r "four", bost, bort-z "five", sei-r "six". The attached -r of hirur, laur etc. is a Niger-Congo plural (from ri), as in Etruscan. This is clear from the fact that the r is added whenever the plural suffix -ak follows: hirurak, laurak. Compare the names Aquitani, Liguri. Niger-Congo numerals were once prefixed also, which tends to create phonological problems of identification. This applies e.g. to lau "four", often nna in Niger-Congo with an assimilated prefix, which has changed n to l. (Westermann 1927 : 104, n > l in Togo R.) and to bost "five", where the Niger-Congo once had a preceding labiovelar as in Guang o-ma-po "end". The ordinals have a suffix -ren, len < Niger-Congo na "be", "progressive" (Etruscan ordinals have -na "to be", "progressive", e.g. biga-ren "second". But "first" is len( en) go, with suffix -ko < -go (< Niger-Congo gwa "much". The re, le is an old Niger-Congo article, often le in Togo R. Entwhistle (1962 : 25) points out the vigesimal arrangement in Basque using hogei (< kua "foot" + gi "two" as base. Vigesimal numerals are a feature of Niger-Congo (Gur, Yoruba), due to counting on hands and feet (before shoes were in use). Celtic took its vigesimal numerals from the same source. Latin adopted vigesimal numerals from Etruscan (XX, XXIV etc.), which we have shown by comparative linguistics to be Niger-Congo. http://www.beforebc.de/all_europe/BasqueAsANiger-CongoLanguage.html http://www.beforebc.de/all_europe/05-09-000-12.html 1 Like

"Was Herodotus, the Father of History, African? [img]http://www.beforebc.de/all_europe/700_mediterranean/02-16-400-20.jpg[/img] In writing the nine volume work, Histories, Herodotus earned himself the title of the “Father of History.” His was the first “true” history though he took the same liberties most historians today do when writing to please themselves not always truth. Was Herodotus African or white? And why is it necessary to determine his ethnicity, however? Because the honor is great and every great ancient figure has been presented as both African [D1, 8, 7, 6] and white [D2, 3, 4, 5]. By “African” I mean those with some combination (so not necessarily all) of wooly hair [B13, C26, D7], a full nose [A3, B14, D1] and full mouth [A5, B11, C19, D7]. As the accomplishments of whites and Asians worldwide are acknowledged based on appearances alone, so too will the identity of the Father of History be made on appearance alone - African or white. In 484 BC, Herodotus was born in the city of Halicarnassus [ A ] in the nation-state of Caria. Both his father and uncle had Carian names with the significance being that Carians were an indigenous population settled by Phoenicians who are the same as Canaanites. [B10-14] shows that Canaanites were found in Syria, Phoenicia, Carthage [also D7] and Spain. As they [B10-14] are African, Herodotus must have been. Neighboring lands from Siberia [A1, 2] and the Ukraine [A3, 4, 5] were African heightening the fact his land was. And James Mellaart noted the ancient African population in nearby Konya [A6] indicated by the dolichocephalic skull ... just as found in prehistoric Caria itself [A7] and in Syria [A8] and Jericho [A9]. The population of the surrounding Anatolia (i.e. Turkey) was African [C15-20] as were the people in Herodotus’ birthtown itself [C21-27]. Whites from the Steppes did not begin to slowly enter southern lands until after 3800 BC [D-map] and as Herodotus was indigenous in any event, it is not likely that [D5] is Herodotus but the African [D6-like]. Finally, his uncle Panyassis was the last Carian writer of history - though like Homer’s of the epic style. In writing of his kin in Peloponnesia, he [D6] was carrying on what can be found still in African oral traditions today recording the events pertaining to his people as his “African” uncle did.

The 1609 Voyage of Henry Hudson The most well known early European observer of the land that would become New Netherland and the river that bears his name is Henry Hudson. Unfortunately, the journal of Henry Hudson was lost, but excerpts are found in other writings. The three quotes below reveal Hudson's assesment of the land's abundance and the ways of the natives. http://www.newnetherlandinstitute.org/history-and-heritage/additional-resources/dutch-treats/early-impressions-of-new-netherland/ "When I came on shore, the swarthy natives all stood and sang in their fashion." Narratives of New Netherland, 1609-1664**, a compilation of accounts of the newly discovered land. New York was a Dutch colony called New Netherlands. The Inhabitants were described as "swarthy", which is an old word for "Black". In addition the Native Americans were Black, some with natural long hair. "They look at themselves constantly, and think they are very fine. They make themselves stockings and also shoes of deer skin, or they take leaves of their corn, and plait them together and use them for shoes. The women, as well as the men, go with their heads bare. The women let their hair grow very long, and tie it together a little, and let it hang down their backs. The men have a long lock of hair hanging down, some on one side of the head, and some on both sides. On the top of their heads they have a streak of hair from the forehead to the neck, about the breadth of three fingers, and this they shorten until it is about two or three fingers long, and it stands right on end like a cock's comb or hog's bristles; on both sides of this cock's comb they cut all the hair short, except the aforesaid locks, and they also leave on the bare places here and there small locks, such as are in sweeping-brushes, and then they are in fine array." (173) from the writings of the Reverend Johannes Megapolensis in 1644.

Space Travel existed among the First People, who were entirely Black. That is why Black People are needed in NASA. The ancient texts of India, Vimanas, written by the indigenous Black Indians, describe Space Flight, wars using atomic bombs that led to their destruction. The Yoruba Ifa verses describe Space flight and a Space vehicle in Orunmila and The Three Witches.
