@firstladyshine If you read the works of Herodotus and Diodorus Siculus, they both said "Ethiopia" i.e. Kush were older than Egyptian civilization. It wasn't until around mid 1900s that the lying began. It should be remembered that present day Ethiopia changed its name to Ethiopia around 1974/1975 so it isn't the Ethiopia the ancients spoke of.

It used to be common knowledge that Nubian temples were far older than Egypt.... Wonder why that info changed. It seems to support the new age bullshitters theories as they try to seperate Egypt from Afrikan people. Shame.

@iArsalan There are still indigenous blacks in Kam but they are kept AWAY from the cameras to support delusion that the invaders in the 7th century are NATIVES.

@Alara0625 They claim the civilization SPRUNG out of nowhere to disconnect it from the Nubians and other black tribes who had been dwelling in the land hundreds of thousands of years before any white colony ever existed.

@estorpai Blacks also were the Olmecs (Mandinka-Shi), Cambodians, first Chinese, and first of many other cultures, which is why they are not in HISTORY books.

@rahotep101 "There is another island above Meroe which is held by the Egyptian fugitives who revolted in the time of Psammetichus, and are called "Sembritae" meaning "Foreigners".They are ruled by a Queen, but they are SUBJECT to the KINGS of MEROE"...Strabo, 64 B.C.E (Book 17).

There were different type of Ethiopians,some were Primitive, some were NOMADIC and others were CIVILIZED and Osiris was of the CIVILIZED Ethiopian tribe.No different from a Civilized Greek & SAVAGE Germanic or Celtic.

The only reason Egypt continue to be a debate today is because Black Africans actually Built it. An in a world designed by White Supremist(Not white people but white supremist) they cannot accept what they use to enslave us actually come from us.

[Alara0625]

People think Egypt sprung up out of nowhere, like it don't take centuries to develop the science needed to build stone pyramids in alignment with the Earth standing over 400 feet in the sky. The knowledge came from the south

@rahotep101 Because you refuse to recognize the royal mother of them all. Look for the grandmother of Queen Tiye. Like I said, you need to do much more research. You knowledge on this subject leaves much to be desired.

At this point the present scholarship isn't even debating weather Egypt is a product of Africa; but rather to what extent it originated it's own motifs from a common cultural tapestry existent throughout Africa.

@rahotep101 Once again, extremely dated info. Agriculture did not start after contact with Mesopotamia. In 4000 bc, pottery in Sudan was already at an advanced state; it would take the rest of the world 1k years to catch up. Pottery is produced by settled agricultural populations. The crook and flail were implements of cattle herding. All Pharaonic symbolism ties to cattle culture. In Kemet, one's Ka was associated with their favored cow. All elements African nilotic cattle culture.
