The chronicling of the political unification of the various African ethnic groups and clans of the ancient Nile valley into a unified nation is clearly delineated in the Text/Tablet of Narmer:
The Front Side:
A) The first word is at the very top, inside the ideograph of the palace, and contains the name Narmer:
Nar(catfish) mer (chisel). And NO, it does not mean that he was a chiseling catfish! You can get Jan Assman's interpretation of the name in his book...
B) The figure to the right of the conquering king-wearing the white crown of Upper Egypt-, the one where Horus is astride and doing exactly what Diop suggests, as Assman points out, represents the conquest of the Delta or Lower Egypt.
C) The king's servant is identified as "Sashat-the goddess of writing, and I presume, the one who is chronicling all of this. (No, the sandal-bearer wasn't a servant god but merely a scribe.)
The people being subdued (compelled to unite) as well as the ones shown fleeing the land have Black African hairstyles, and many Egyptologists suggest that they represent the original Black African Anu ethnic rulers of the Two Lands.
D) the two figures below the "border" of Egypt represent the determinative "Kher" which means "fall, defeat, slaughter" and is preceded by another glyph which means "Uhan" or "overthrown, throw-down" (Coptic: Ouwdjn/Ouwgan)(also Sdjen).
The Back Side:
A) The first important word on this side is the word Tht;or Tjt; or Tet which means "to assemble" and is obviously referring to the assembled group of four figures bearing Black African totems, as Diop points out.
B) Above the slain enemies- I imagine those who opposed political unification - are the images of
1) a boat with its sails down, which means a journey down river
and
2) of Horus in front of an emblem which Assman interprets as meaning 'gate' - These conquerors would later be identified as the "Shemsu Hor" or the followers of Horus, the Mesnitu ('blacksmiths') and who later claimed that they were from the land of Punt (evidence of the existence of at least two ruling African ethnic groups; Anu and later, the Mesnitu)...
C) The next word, a very large version at that, of two creatures with the twisting long necks is "Kaes" or "Kasu" which means 'to bind or fetter,' Qes/Kes - restrain, bind
which I think indicates the obvious, that the union of the two lands was carried out through armed struggle.
(It has been suggested that the 'formal' union was firmly established by another warrior king, Aha. )
D) the last image is the one that confirms Diops assessment...
1) The bull breaking down the walled city's fortified wall and stomping the Asiatic represents the king. The word inside the wall "Abominable" (IE, "city of the abominables") is a term the Kememu used to describe the Asian or White peoples, especially.
It seems obvious that the Kememu did not regard these peoples as a legitimate part of their ethnic population. It's Kememu ideology...

Here is an auxiliary text to Narmer's tablet that shows the leader pouring a toast/libation to the 'nine bows/peoples' who formed the political unification of the Black Nation of Ancient Egypt.
The leader and the first three representatives wear the hair-dress of the Sudanese or southerners who were the khentu hon nefer or the founders of this perfect order, and the remaining 6 figures wear the nemes hairstyle of the indigenous tribes and clans of the Nile valley peoples who became components of the unified nation of Kemet...

Are you sure this is what the stela depicts? I remember seeing it before but can you translate the Mdu-neter?
I thought the 9 bows were the traditional enemies of Egypt. I asked you to list their names before but you did not.

A Greek historical account of the beginning of Pharaonic Egyptian Civilization...
quote:They say also that the Egyptians (Colonizing Blacks) are colonists sent out by the Ethiopians (Colonizing Blacks), Osiris having been the leader of the colony... And the larger part of the customs of the Egyptians (Indigenous Blacks) are, they hold, Ethiopian (Colonizing Blacks), the colonists still preserving their ancient manners. For instance, the belief that their kings are gods, the very special attention which they pay to their burials, and many other matters of a similar nature are Ethiopian (Colonizing Blacks) practices, while the shapes of their statues and the forms of their letters are Ethiopian (Colonizing Blacks); for of the two kinds of writing which the Egyptians (Indigenous Blacks) have, that which is known as "popular" (demotic) is learned by everyone, while that which is called "sacred" is understood only by the priests of the Egyptians (Indigenous Blacks)... Furthermore, the orders of the priests, they maintain, have much the same position among both peoples; for all are clean who are engaged in the service of the gods, keeping themselves shaven, like the Ethiopian (Colonizing Blacks) priests, and having the same dress and form of staff, which is shaped like a plow and is carried by their kings, who wear high felt hats which end in a knob at the top and are circled by the serpents which they call asps... Many other things are also told by them concerning their own antiquity and the colony which they sent out that became the Egyptians (Colonizing & Indigenous Blacks), but about this there is no special need of our writing anything.

Perhaps it is better if one were to delve into the ethnic identities of predynastic peoples in order to get a better understanding of the unification. More on the Anu and the Mesenitu etc.

The most significant fact of the founding of Pharaonic Civilization by the Anu people is rarely, if ever, mentioned in texts on Ancient Egypt. Not to mention the Anu is actually worse than, say, writing a history of the United States of America and not mentioning the Pilgrims (aka "Founders"/"Forefathers"). One has to look at earlier texts for this vital information:
French Egyptologist Abbe Émile Amélineau is credited with the discovery of the Anu and their contribution to Egyptian civilization. It was Amélineau who designated the first black group to colonize Egypt as the Anu. He showed how they came slowly down the Nile and founded the cities of Esneh, Erment, Qouch and Heliopolis...
From Amélineau:
quote: These Anu were agricultural people, raising cattle on a large scale along the Nile, shutting themselves up in walled cities for defensive purposes. To this people we can attribute, without fear of error, the most ancient Egyptian books, The Book of the Dead and the Texts of the Pyramids, consequently, all the myths or religious teachings. I would add almost all the philosophical systems then known and still called Egyptian. They evidently knew the crafts necessary for any civilization and were familiar with the tools those trades required. They knew how to use metals, at least elementary metals. They made the earliest attempts at writing, for the whole Egyptian tradition attributes this art to Thoth, the great Hermes an Anu like Osiris, who is called Onian in Chapter XV of The Book of the Dead and in the Texts of the Pyramids. Certainly the people already knew the principal arts; it left proof of this in the architecture of the tombs at Abydos, especially the tomb of Osiris and in those sepulchers objects have been found bearing unmistakable stamp of their origin, such as carved ivory, or a little head of a Nubian girl found in a tomb near that of Osiris, or the small wooden or ivory receptacles in the form of a feline head--all documents published in the first volumn of my Fouilles d'Abydos.
From the Kememu:
Anu the city of Heliopolis (Coptic; On) Anu Meh Anu of the north (Heliopolis) Anu Shemo Anu of the south (Hermonthis/Ermant) Anu Monti Anu of Hermonthis Anu Tem the Anu of Tem (Hermonthis) Anu Re the Anu of Re Afdu Ikhu the Four Ancestors (of the Anu) Ugrit Goddess of the Duat of Anu Djandjané Anu the Anu Court of Judges: Tem; Shu; Tefnut; Osiris; Thoth Anu n Ptoh the Anu of Ptah (Denderah) Anu n Nut the Anu of Nut (Denderah)
Denderah
Judging by the sheer number of given titles, the most venerated city of Kemet was not Thebes, but Denderah. After all, this was the city where the Parents of the Kememu nation (Isis and Osiris) were born. (It is also in the same neighborhood as Naqada). Here are some of the titles of this city:
"The birthplace of Isis" "The Throne of the Queen" "The perfect throne in the Holy of Holies" "The place of joy" "The thrones of Horus" "The holy temple of Horus" "The throne of eternity" "The throne of the drink" "The birthplace of Nut" "The Golden House" "The Sanctuary of Osiris" "The Sanctuary of Re" "The city of the knowing of Isis" "The temple of life" "The temple of Hathor" "The eternal house" "The exalted temple" "The holy temple of Horus of the Two-Lands" "The house of knowledge" (per Rekhit)
The Sudanese Country of Bukem (Buqem) This country was where the worship of the gods Hathor, Shu, Tefnut, etc., originated and spread down the Nile Valley. (An Anu country?)
Kas (Kos) - Capital of the 14th *state of southern Kemet The word Kas, symbolized by a man astride two mythological creatures with their necks entwined and bound together, and the largest word on Narmer's palette of unification, means "Political Union." This particular state was situated roughly half the distance between the north-south borders of southern Kemet. It would be interesting to find the significance of its being named Kas (the south being unified first?)...
*Kemet consisted of 42 states and governors; 22 located in the south and 20 in the north.

Diop in African Origins also mentioned the Anu as the founding race in Sumer where the cosmology there was Nile Valley derived, like most of the "Near East".

^ Of course Diop here is mistaken. He identified the Anu (people) with the deity Anu of Mesopotamia which no doubt have different etymologies as the words are of entirely different languages. Obviously the Sagugig and other blacks of Mesopotamia were aboriginal populations of Eurasia and not Africans.
If not, explain why the Anu proto-hieroglphs of the Nile Valley were not found in Mesopotamia, better yet why weren't such proto-hieroglyphs even found in the Delta?

No ethnic group is aboriginal to any other place on earth except Africa! You can trace any ethnic group anywhere on earth back to this original local...
In the historical era, Professor Diop was not mistaken on this point:
quote:An means man [in Diola]. Thus Anu originally may have meant men.’ Cheikh A.Diop
My own sense of the word "Anu" is - 'the enduring ones'/'mighty men'...
quote:Anu was also the Sumerian [African] name for the sky or sky god. An being the first cause [man]. The sky god whose wife was Antu in the Babylonian culture and Uras in the Akkadian or Sumerian was also on occasion called Ki.
The Anu, who were mighty ("Nimrod") enough to colonize, unify, and lay the basis of Ancient Egyptian Civilization, would surely have an impact on all the cultures of the world...Posts: 3344 | From: Berkeley | Registered: Oct 2003

Again, as I have tried to point out, that in the Mdu Ntr, and later imitated in Hebrew, the numbers "7" and "9" were used symbolically (i.e., in Hebrew, the number 7 means whole, complete); and obviously there were more than 9 Sudanese ethnic groups whose principal weapon was the Bow...
In later years, the "Nine Bows" would be used to indicate both the Sudanese as well as the Asiactic enemies of Kemet; a number not actually set at "9" - for over the course of thousands of years as a nation, the number of Kemet's enemies would naturally fluctuate...
-- the Hebrews referred to nine as the symbol of immutable Truth.
quote:The Ennead, or nine pointed star, is an ancient and sacred symbol. It comprises three trinities. The Egyptian, Celtic, Greek and Christian myths all have an ennead of nine gods and goddesses, representing the entire archetypal range of principles.
...thus, we also have the 9 bows in Mdu Ntr, representing the founders of Kemet and later on the enemies of the Nation...

Following the successful unification of Kemet by Narmer, the formal Kushite idea of kingship was established, and from the very beginning of Pharaonic Kemet, it became traditional to manifest this Kushite or Southern origin of the Pharaohs by giving the king an "Nsu" name, which essentially means "Upper Egypt"; Sudan or Southern, the source of Ancient Egyptian civilization.

The likelihood that any Kememou Royal Dynasty would allow any foreign national into the family would be as unlikely as the British Royal family allowing British Royal Princess Diana the inclusion into this dynasty of her Arab-Turkish lover-fiance Dodi Fayed. In another epoch, the Princess would have simply been beheaded. It is the inherent nature of dynasties everywhere...
It is therefore laughable and sadly pathetic that the 'sick folks' keep on insisting that some non-Blacks infiltrated or even started these Black African dynasties; they proclaim they were from peasant Europe, or peasant Asia, or perhaps from outer space!
Pharaonic Egyptian Civilization was the creation of Black Africans, so great indeed was this creation that some non-Blacks will try whatever means at their disposal to make themselves associated with it or even its creators - pure science fiction...

Egypt and Nubia in the 5th–4th millennia BC: A view from the First Cataract and its surroundings Gatto, M. C. 2009
Quote:
The Egyptians were mainly officials and soldiers and thus male; the female component appears to have been for the most part local and thus Nubian. The New Kingdom situation may seem very similar to that of the Predynastic period, but this might not actually be the case. The communities Smith analysed were clearly Egyptian or Nubian, and they adjusted their ethnic affiliation in a rather opportunistic way. In the Predynastic period, the Egyptian and Nubian identities still shared many common traits derived from a common ancestry. The Naqada culture developed from the Badarian culture which, as the Tasian, was related to the Nubian Neolithic tradition (Gatto 2002; 2006c). Thus, the definition of what was Egyptian or Nubian at that time in the First Cataract region (and the southern part of Upper Egypt) is not so obvious: are the local cooking pots (shale-tempered ware), for example, Egyptian or Nubian?

---- The Early Dynastic administrative-cultic centre at Tell el-Farkha Krzysztof M. Ciałowicz
Representations of naked women continued to be popular in the Protodynastic and Early Dynastic periods. A badly damaged figurine of bone showing a naked woman with her hands held along the sides of the body comes from the Early Dynastic deposit at Tell Ibrahim Awad (Belova and Sherkova 2002, photo 55). A few examples are also known from the Main Deposit at Hierakonpolis. To this group belongs, among others, a figurine in the Petrie Museum (Adams 1974, cat. no. 360, pls. 44–45). This large (20 cm high) ivory figurine depicts a standing naked woman. Despite the fact that both her hands are broken off, it is evident that the left arm was bent at the elbow and held below the breasts, while the right arm hung along the side of the body; the right hand on the right thigh is preserved with carefully modelled fingers. The face is distinctively modelled, with almond-shaped eyes, a relatively wide nose and thick lips. Also of interest is the hairdo: the long hair or wig extends to the figure’s waist, with the individual waves of hair represented by horizontal lines. This sculpture is therefore very similar to both of those found at Tell el-Farkha (Fig. 18). The majority of figurines from Hierakonpolis are in the Ashmolean Museum (Capart 1905, figs. 132–33), and amongst them are representations of naked women, in poses identical to those from Tell el-Farkha, as well as some dressed in long robes also like the examples from Tell el-Farkha.

===== With donkeys, jars and water bags into the Libyan Desert: the Abu Ballas Trail in the late Old Kingdom/First Intermediate Period
Frank Förster
When an exceptionally strong sand storm revealed, in 1947, the first traces of the late Old Kingdom town at Ayn Aseel in the eastern part of the oasis, it came as quite a surprise to the scientific, Nile-oriented community (though some ancient monuments and artefacts of later date had been known before).
The recent discovery of a long-distance desert route, which extends the known limit of Egyptian influence several hundred kilometres further towards the heart of the continent, is another surprise. In 1999 and 2000, the German desert traveller Carlo Bergmann found several sites which form a chain of staging posts on an almost straight line, the end of which lies close to the Gilf Kebir Plateau in the Libyan Desert, about 400km southwest of its starting-point in Dakhla (fig. 1).
Clearly these Egyptian enterprises did not venture into barren, hostile regions hitherto totally unexplored.
Curiously, one of them has a representation of a standing king wearing the double crown of Upper and Lower Egypt on its outer, flat, bottom, incised before firing (figs. 27–8).

The ideograph "su"; image of the sedge plant
Ideograph: A character which can symbolize whole words or concepts rather than just a sound.
Thus, the words "Nsu, Nsuten, Suten" - all using the "su" ideograph conveys that Royalty, legitimacy, Kingship originated and resides in the south (Upper Egypt, Sudan) ; this concept was from the beginning of Pharaonic Egypt until its ultimate end by way of foreign invasions and colonialism...Posts: 3344 | From: Berkeley | Registered: Oct 2003

Ideograph: A character which can symbolize whole words or concepts rather than just a sound.
Thus, the words "Nsu, Nsuten, Suten" - all using the "su" ideograph conveys that Royalty, legitimacy, Kingship originated and resides in the south (Upper Egypt, Sudan) ; this concept was from the beginning of Pharaonic Egypt until its ultimate end by way of foreign invasions and colonialism...
The Anu People - The Founding Fathers
The most significant fact of the founding of Pharaonic Civilization by the Anu people is rarely, if ever, mentioned in texts on Ancient Egypt. Not to mention the Anu is actually worse than, say, writing a history of the United States of America and not mentioning the Pilgrims (aka "Founders"/"Forefathers"). One has to look at earlier texts for this vital information:
French Egyptologist Abbe Émile Amélineau is credited with the discovery of the Anu and their contribution to Egyptian civilization. It was Amélineau who designated the first black group to colonize Egypt as the Anu. He showed how they came slowly down the Nile and founded the cities of Esneh, Erment, Qouch and Heliopolis...
From Amélineau:
quote: These Anu were agricultural people, raising cattle on a large scale along the Nile, shutting themselves up in walled cities for defensive purposes. To this people we can attribute, without fear of error, the most ancient Egyptian books, The Book of the Dead and the Texts of the Pyramids, consequently, all the myths or religious teachings. I would add almost all the philosophical systems then known and still called Egyptian. They evidently knew the crafts necessary for any civilization and were familiar with the tools those trades required. They knew how to use metals, at least elementary metals. They made the earliest attempts at writing, for the whole Egyptian tradition attributes this art to Thoth, the great Hermes an Anu like Osiris, who is called Onian in Chapter XV of The Book of the Dead and in the Texts of the Pyramids. Certainly the people already knew the principal arts; it left proof of this in the architecture of the tombs at Abydos, especially the tomb of Osiris and in those sepulchers objects have been found bearing unmistakable stamp of their origin, such as carved ivory, or a little head of a Nubian girl found in a tomb near that of Osiris, or the small wooden or ivory receptacles in the form of a feline head--all documents published in the first volumn of my Fouilles d'Abydos.
From the Kememu:
Anu the city of Heliopolis (Coptic; On) Anu Meh Anu of the north (Heliopolis) Anu Shemo Anu of the south (Hermonthis/Ermant) Anu Monti Anu of Hermonthis Anu Tem the Anu of Tem (Hermonthis) Anu Re the Anu of Re Afdu Ikhu the Four Ancestors (of the Anu) Ugrit Goddess of the Duat of Anu Djandjané Anu the Anu Court of Judges: Tem; Shu; Tefnut; Osiris; Thoth Anu n Ptoh the Anu of Ptah (Denderah) Anu n Nut the Anu of Nut (Denderah)
Denderah
Judging by the sheer number of given titles, the most venerated city of Kemet was not Thebes, but Denderah. After all, this was the city where the Parents of the Kememu nation (Isis and Osiris) were born. (It is also in the same neighborhood as Naqada). Here are some of the titles of this city:
"The birthplace of Isis" "The Throne of the Queen" "The perfect throne in the Holy of Holies" "The place of joy" "The thrones of Horus" "The holy temple of Horus" "The throne of eternity" "The throne of the drink" "The birthplace of Nut" "The Golden House" "The Sanctuary of Osiris" "The Sanctuary of Re" "The city of the knowing of Isis" "The temple of life" "The temple of Hathor" "The eternal house" "The exalted temple" "The holy temple of Horus of the Two-Lands" "The house of knowledge" (per Rekhit)
The Sudanese Country of Bukem (Buqem) This country was where the worship of the gods Hathor, Shu, Tefnut, etc., originated and spread down the Nile Valley. (An Anu country?)
Kas (Kos) - Capital of the 14th *state of southern Kemet The word Kas, symbolized by a man astride two mythological creatures with their necks entwined and bound together, and the largest word on Narmer's palette of unification, means "Political Union." This particular state was situated roughly half the distance between the north-south borders of southern Kemet. It would be interesting to find the significance of its being named Kas (the south being unified first?)...
*Kemet consisted of 42 states and governors; 22 located in the south and 20 in the north.

In Sumerian mythology and later for Assyrians and Babylonians, Anu (also An; (from Sumerian *An 𒀭 = sky, heaven)) was a sky-god, the god of heaven, lord of constellations, king of gods, spirits and demons, and dwelt in the highest heavenly regions. It was believed that he had the power to judge those who had committed crimes, and that he had created the stars as soldiers to destroy the wicked. His attribute was the royal tiara, most times decorated with two pairs of bull horns.
He was one of the oldest gods in the Sumerian pantheon, and part of a triad including Enlil, god of the sky and Enki, god of water. He was called Anu by the Akkadians. By virtue of being the first figure in a triad consisting of Anu, Enlil, and Ea, Anu came to be regarded as the father and at first, king of the gods. Anu is so prominently associated with the E-anna temple in the city of Uruk (biblical Erech) in southern Babylonia that there are good reasons for believing this place to have been the original seat of the Anu cult. If this is correct, then the goddess Inanna (or Ishtar) of Uruk may at one time have been his consort.
Uruk (Cuneiform: 𒌷𒀔, URUUNUG ; Sumerian: unug; Akkadian: uruk; Biblical Hebrew: Erech; Greek: Ὀρχόη Orchoē, Ὠρύγεια Ōrugeia; Latin: Orchoi; Arabic: وركاء, Warkā') was an ancient city of Sumer and later Babylonia, situated east of the present bed of the Euphrates river, on the ancient dry former channel of the Euphrates River, some 30 km east of modern As-Samawah, Al-Muthannā, Iraq
