[QUOTE]Originally posted by Rain King: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by HeartofAfrica: [qb]I totally agree with this mindset. We have to be very careful trying to create origin myths out of the Nile Valley, civilizations.[/qb][/QUOTE]The only origin myth is that made up by European scholars the Bantu originated in Western Africa. Did the Yoruba simply make this origin myth up?

When this black civilization was destroyed by pale invading populations the original populace had scattered throughout Africa into their contemporary locations. The Ashanti for example verify this in their oral traditions; [i]"Oral traditions of the ruling Abrade (Aduana) Clan state that Akans originated from ancient Ghana. [b]The Akan people migrated from the north through Egypt and settled in Nubia (Sudan). Around 500 AD (5th century), due to the pressure exerted on Nubia by the Axumite kingdom of Ethiopia, Nubia was scattered and the Akan people moved west and established small trading kingdoms.[/b] These kingdoms grew and around 750 AD the Ghana Empire was formed. The Empire lasted from 750 AD to 1200 AD and collapsed as a result of the introduction of Islam in Western Sudan, due to the zeal of the Muslims to impose their religion, their ancestors eventually left for Kong (i.e. present-day Ivory Coast). From Kong, they moved to Wam and then to Dormaa (both located in present-day Brong-Ahafo region). The movement from Kong was necessitated by the desire of the people to find suitable savannah conditions since they were not used to forest life. Around the 14th century, they moved from Dormaa South Eastwards to Twifo-Heman North West Cape Coast. This move was commercially motivated."[/i] Here are more sources supporting what has been written about the Akan's Northeast African origin.

A great branch for sure...but just another branch. [/QUOTE]That is vague a sentiment. It's white liberal fueled dribble essentially. [QUOTE]Things that were traded, or heritage similarities that survived from long ago. There will always be a connection between African ethnic groups, despite their individual unique qualities. [/QUOTE]Ok....so what do you think is the strongest cultural connection between the Khoi and the Oromo? [QUOTE] Before and after the Green Saharan dried up, it helped spawned a lot of amazing human creations, standards of living, belief, political systems, science, medicine and other vast pillars of knowledge. [/QUOTE]Great! Interesting. So what was this earlier splendid Saharan civilization called? [/QB][/QUOTE]
