If this is where AE say they come from, then why all the confusion? (tee hee [Embarrassed]

) Is there any other mountain area out of Africa with this indigenous name?

Turns out these Ugandan Alps are quite interesting...

Anyone have the direct quote from the Temple this is said to have come from?

You will have to excuse those of us who are not on the other related forums.

I was under the impression from reading Diop that this was almost written in stone. No wonder the confusion.

It's a shame Dr. Ben is now in a rest home. Would really like to know where exactly where he got this quote to publisize it.

Yeah, I understand; just my way of finding an opportunity to insert a link that I find relevant to the discussion at hand. [Wink]

The way I see it at this point, the status quo hasn't changed since I last checked the said discussion; but who knows, I could be wrong...
