Maakhir:I know they were largely Nubians/Sudanese. They border Egypt, so this shouldn't come as a surprise. 'Cushite' was a blanket term used by non-Africans for all Black groups outside of Egypt, including India, Arabia, the Levant and Mesopotamia. This actually included the probably small number of Bantu groups they came in contact with. They made no distinction, everyone Black was a 'burnt-face' which is what Cushite means, even the Black Indians or Dravidians were regularly called "Cushites with straight hair". That's how the name 'Hindu Kush' derived its name. A Cushite is an all-encompassing, pejorative word for Black, period. Bantu, Nilo-Saharan, Asiatic, and Indians were all Cushites, that's the point I wanted to drive home. |
axum:Alright, now you're pissing me off, b/c I can see I'm dealing with a dull individual. Scroll up to your reply to my pics of Black slaves in Egypt. No one, not even your buddy, called those people Bantus but you. For the second (and last) time, SHOW PROOF that those Black slaves were Bantus, like you claimed. |
axum:And you're new to the whole 'reading comprehension' thing. The hieroglyphs I posted were long before the events you posted in that article (that's a shame a European colonial power had to abolish slavery in your own homeland). But I digress. Show proof that the artifacts I posted of Black slaves in Ancient Egypt were Bantus. |
Maakhir:Oh, now they're NUBIANS huh? Not BANTUS like your fellow brother stated? Well, I gather that neither of you know what you're talking about, that's not how the Egyptians inscribed them, nor the classic Greek, Roman, Arab and even Jewish historians. Even the bible called the peoples south of Egypt Cushites (not Nubians and DEF not Bantus). I guess I should dismiss the ancient writings and drawings of all the Egyptians, classic historians and even the Bible, and take the word of two (emotional) somalis on nairaland message board. |
axum:Bantus are central and southern peoples. They never dwelled near North African/Egypt populations and you know this. Why are you lying? |
jantavanta:Not exactly the thought-provoking and intriguing response I anticipated (lol). Quite frankly it doesn't even make sense and here's why: 1. Its been hypothesized that the once the earth was all one land mass (Pangea) -- but this was well before the appearance of our species, Homo Sapien Sapien, circa 200kya - FACT. 2. Pale skins did not start evolving until appx 10kya, at the time of the last ice age - FACT. 3. But according to your theory, whites appeared after [b][/b] Atlantis sank millions of years ago? Unless white people came from mermaids, if Atlantis (Pangea) sank, there would be no land mass, nor survivors. If I'm missing something, please clarify b/c this theory makes absolutely NO sense at all.... |
axum:The Cushites enslaved the Bantus? Was this before or after the Egyptians enslaved your big lipped, nappy haired, crispy charred black AZZEZ ![]()

jantavanta:Very true@There was a time when the Entire World was black, in the broad sense of Black People with straight hair, kinky hair, mongoloid face, plenty of physical diversity, but Black, because Melanin is essential for survival in warm or cold climate. After all, the descendants of the indigenes of the North Pole (Eskimos, Aleuts, Siberians etc) are very dark skinned with abundant melanin, so I know climate ALONE can't be the sole contributing factor. Now, since Black people populated the world over, what are your thoughts on WHEN and WHERE these mysterious whites came from? |
Wow.. just wow...I don't get it. In America and the rest of the world for that matter, you would just be another NIGGER. I'm talking to you so-called Cushites. The word "Cushii" is derogatory word throughout the middle east. And the Ancient Egyptians never depicted you guys in a flattering light. You're sittin' there smacking your gums about slavery, nigga, YOUR SKINNY AZZES WERE ENSLAVED by them Egyptians, don't front! YOu were so busy talking about slavery, but somehow you forgot to mention THAT. I'm just taken aback by your smugness and arrogance towards other Africans, we may all have different experiences and struggles but we're ALL Black dummy, isn't that's what Cushite means in Hebrew With the advent of racism/white supremacy, the sooner you realize you're no different than us so called "Bantus", the less you'll make yourself look like a complete FOOL on these boards. You and that Malak guy are real shitheads, shortsighted unenlightened COONS, playing right into the whole divide and conquer trick. Consider yourself to have been 'schooled', don't go out into the real world repeating this NONSENSE ok? btw, since you think you're so smart, Nigerians mostly constitute the Niger-Congo family, NOT Bantu. Only a small percentage of people in Nigeria are Bantu, namely the peoples of Calabar/Akwa Ibom. Get that through your oblong FIVE-head skulls.... #ICAN'TWITHTHESEPEOPLE |
Very intriguing -- thanks for your contribution to this topic. I'm familiar with Marc Washington's site (beforebc), Mike at realhistoryww, and the EgyptSearch message boards. VERY good sources of information. You seem like you're a Nigerian as well, and have a firm grasp on how all this information relates to ours. Kudos to you. Keep up the good work, forget the haters, I notice they retort with emotional rants, NOT factual counter arguments. The only thing I would say is that suspicious 'photo' of George III is a bit suspect... but hey, I'm not the type to throw the baby out with the bathwater. Black Global Presence of the indigenous Black peoples of varying phenotypes throughout the world, from Europe to Asia and Oceania to the Americas is something that confounds people b/c this is information that is widely suppressed. Therefore given the education system in naija, you can't expect anyone to be the least bit enlightened on this type of subject. I however, found this info interesting, I came into this knowledge myself about 9mo ago. There's still a lot of unanswered questions I have however.... for example: if Blacks are the indgenes of this planet, where does everyone else come from though? I don't *fully* subscribe to whites coming solely from albinism (realhistoryww), even though type 2 albinism explains the diversity in their hair and eye color (no other group has such color diversity in their hair and eyes). I believe climate, Vit D, sexual selection and albinism are ALL factors giving rise to the white race, appx. 10kya. The mixing of these white tribes (ie Aryans, etc) with the surrounding native Black groups (Dravidians, Jomon, Shang, Negritos, Arabs, Berbers, Elamites, Grimaldi/Augnacians, etc) gave rise to the intermediate brown ethnic groups we see today. I'm curious what your thoughts are on this. |
