I agree 100%.

I met one Obi Jones in Australia.

I was shocked when he told me his father is not African.

I've also met a pure South African bearing Ajala. I was shocked.

Obi is short for Obidahia it's a Jewish name 🙄

There's nothing like Obidahia in Jewry. The name is Obadiah.

Add Ehime there. I am from Ehime in imo state, Google took me to Ehime in Japan. Very interesting thread that should ignite reasoning and further studies, some wish to wave it away. The way some tribes are marrying foreigners, very soon a particular DNA, culture, language and names will dominate the world.
Rostikol:
Did Our Ancestors settle in Asia in remote antiquity?

This is incredible. We need our historians and anthropologists to dig deep into this, because it has gone beyond 'coincidence'.

Re: Amazing Japanese Names That Are NIGERIAN by stevonics: 10:52am On Jan 12
i have to check again, Ehime in Japan is located in an island called Shikoku. Now another igbo- Chi-ikoku. I believe that most islands are filled with migrants. Due to loss of direction, ship wreck or banishment.

Pure unadulterated bull dung. Everything this Ross-something posts shows a deep feeling of inadequacy that has to be made up for by creating fantasies.

Similarity in SOUND between words DOES NOT reflect relationship. There are hundreds and thousands of words that sound/look alike in different languages that are not related. Similarity in MEANING is a much more important reflector of a relationship. If you check the meanings of these Japanese words and compare them with the meanings of their Nigerian lookalikes, you will see that MOST of them don't even REMOTELY mean the same thing.

I'll close my little comment by repeating: PURE UNADULTERATED BULL DUNG.

Actually in the DNA test of Yorubas part of what baffled the Scientists was that Yorubas had a particular Gene which the only other place it was found on earth was in Siberia
Siberia is next to Japan
Is it a Coincidence
Where was this research published?

Chinese are descendants of Ham like Black Africans but are the Japanese also descendants of Ham too

Funny. In what part of the Bible does it say the Chinese are descended from Ham?

These are the sons of Ham according to the Book of Genesis:

1. Cush, i.e., Sudan (black Africans, by a wider definition)
2. Mizraim, i.e., Egypt
3. Phut, i.e., Libya (Berber North Africans, by a wider defintion)
4. Canaan, i.e., the area of modern Palestine.

Where is China in this arrangement?

There's actually OSATO in one Japanese themed James Bond movie.


OSATO is a Benin name,full name being OSATOHAMWEN

"You Only Live Twice"

Sean Connery as Bond was a fool grin

What was he thinking on his first visit to Osato's HQ? They wouldn't notice the obvious height difference when he wore the disguise of the assassin ? grin He even boldly went back the next morning as a businessman / researcher (can't recall).

What was he thinking trying to go to space as an astronaut? grin

When he underestimated the long reach of that henchman when that punch landed? I love those body punches though.

One of my favourite 007 movies of all time cool

Mumu. I can school you in providing a MOUNTAIN of evidence showing ancient Nigerian/African connection to Asia enough to make your head spin.

Are you aware that BLACK AFRICAN EMPIRES existed in Japan, China and the rest of Asia in antiquity?

Are you aware that DNA studies have traced Asian ancestry to black Africans, and JAPANESE ANCESTRY TO NIGERIA?

Are you aware that the Korean aristocracy was JET BLACK right up till the start of the 20th century, and were known as the Yangban?



Are you aware that there are African languages spoken in Asia by populations there?

Are you aware that TAMIL, the Indian language is a traditional language spoken in Cameroun?

Are you aware that Bali, the Indonesian language is a native language of Botswana and DR Congo?

According to scholars, ''Mien or Yao is a group of related languages spoken by the Yao people, a Bantu group in: a. Malawi b. Mozambique c. Tanzania. They are also called Wayao. They speak the same thing (language) in terms of nouns and verbs with the Mien tribal group of China.

If the Yao can trace the origin of their language from China with sufficient facts, what will then stop the Mwaghavul man and other tribes or related groups from the Niger-Congo family from doing the same? Since they shared a lot of wordings and pronunciations in common and practice. Bali is spoken in Indonesia and at the same time in the Democratic Republic of Congo and so also is Sotho which is spoken in Lesotho, South Africa and Botswana.’’ (Encarta, 2004).

Are you aware that the Shanga people of Nigeria most likely founded the Shang Dynasty of China which ruled that nation for 600 years?

I will school you all night because I know your head is EMPTY of any knowledge of Africa's GLORIOUS past.
Re: Amazing Japanese Names That Are NIGERIAN by Rostikol: 2:10am On Jan 13
According to Godfrey Higgins, famous British author of Anacalypsis, written in 1836,

‘’there were two Ethiopias, one to the east of the Red sea, and the other to the west of it: and a very great nation of blacks ... did rule over over almost all Asia in a very remote era, in fact beyond the reach of history or any of our records..

......We have found the black complexion or something relating to it whenever we have approached the origin of nations. The Alma Mater, the goddess Multimammia, the founders of oracles, the Memnons or first idols, were always black. Venus, Juno, Jupiter, Apollo, Bacchus, Hercules, Asteroth, Adonis, Horus, Apis, Osiris, Ammon, in short, all the ... deities were black. The images remain as they were first made in very remote times.....The originals of all the Gods have always been of the black race. The ancients viewed the sacred image of the Divine as Black. And woolly hair was a sign of divinity - called "the hair of the gods."

'In my Essay on The Celtic Druids, I have shown that a great nation called Celtæ, of whom the Druids were the priests, spread themselves almost over the whole earth, and are to be traced in their .. gigantic monuments from India to the extremities of Britain. Who these can have been but the early individuals of the black nation of whom we have been treating I know not, and in this opinion I am not singular.'





Chinese legends refer to eras of divine dynasties, one being the epoch of the Five Emperors.

The first emperor, known as Fu Hsi who lived from 2953 BC to 2838 BC, well over 5,000 years ago, is described as being ‘’a wooly haired Negro’’.

More drug-addled rubbish. Someone that wants to school me is quoting Encarta for me. What next - Wikipedia? A YouTube channel? Some blog by someone called the Piankhi Sabarqo? Bring something from a peer-reviewed journal of linguistics, if you're trying to take me on. Bring some Thomson Reuters-level stuff. I am not your mate in these matters. I've been in academia, teaching at a first-rate university and writing rated stuff going on a decade now. What I know you cannot know by sticking your nose in the pseudohistorical crap that you consume in unhealthy doses. I read all these crappy afrocentric sh.it that you are currently high on when I teenager. Then I grew up and began to do more rigorous research and I realised that they were largely just that: crap. You are a kid, academically. When you are ready to approach history as a science and a serious field of enquiry, you'll realise how foo.lish you are today. Or maybe not.

By the way, I highly doubt Roger Blench wrote this nonsense you are attributing to him. I ran a trace and found nothing. I know Roger Blench by reputation and saying Bali is spoken in Congo doesn't sound like what he would say.

It's not only Shanga people of Nigeria founding the Shang dynasty. Are you sure you don't also want to say that Borno people founded the sultanate of Borneo and Izon people of the Niger Delta founded Arizona?
