[QUOTE]Originally posted by Archeopteryx: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Big O: Megaliths are a phenomena of Africans who spread throughout the World. The fact that these are found in relatively remote regions of Africa are evident that these peoples were Black Africans.[/QUOTE]Megaliths of different kinds exists all over the world. There are no evidence that they originate in Africa or were spread over the world by Africans. (Except those found in Africa of course. They were African, but not the others outside Africa) Oldest megalithic structure is probably Göbekli Tepe i todays Turkey. It is about 11000 years old. Among the oldest megaliths are dolmens. They exist in Western Europe already 7000 years ago. Similar structures also exist in other parts of the world. As an example one can mention Korea which has among the most dolmens in the world, 35 000. We have among the worlds oldest chamber graves in France already 6800 years ago, like the one in Barnenez. Another old form of megaliths are passage tombs, with the oldest examples in France and Ireland. They are about 6000 years old. Among the oldest megalithic temples are those found on Malta. They are about 5600 years old. There are no evidence that dolmens, passage tombs, megalithic temples or even stone circles originates in Africa. They exist all over the world and many are local inventions. It is just like pyramids, people have invented those kinds of monuments independently from each other in both Egypt and the New World (the Americas), despite the ramblings of hyper- diffusionists like Ivan van Sertima and others.
