[QUOTE]Originally posted by Clyde Winters: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Doug M: [qb] The connections are there and they are not as trivial as many may think. There are many verbal traditions all over Africa of Egyptian influence. I posted something a while back about some Africans saying they learned bead making from Egyptians. Of course, Europeans dont count such traditions. It is not just Egyptian influence either. It is Nile Valley influence that can be seen across Africa. This attests to the contacts between Egypt, Sudan, Ethiopia and other Nilotic civilizations and the rest of Africa. It does not make the Nile the ancestral homeland of all modern West Africans though. [/qb][/QUOTE]We agree on this point ,Doug, I have never said all West Africans came from Egypt. But we have to face the fact that Egyptians exiles would have possessed the knowledge to make great contributions to African societies with lesser technology. This may have helped them to assimilate smoothly in many African societies where they settled after migrating from Egypt to escape unjust rule by non-Egyptians. . [/QB][/QUOTE]
