[QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Yonis: [qb] [QUOTE]Did the Bantu Expansion reach Egypt? [/QUOTE]the furthest north bantu expansion reached in East Africa was Kenya, and maybe also southern somali, but i think most of the bantus in southern somalia were brought there by persian settlers and arab slave traders such as the omanis from places like Mozambique, Tanzania and Zambia. Btw P.O.P did you know "Moqdishu" is a persian name, it means "the seat of the shah" Maq-da-shah? I recently learned this, LOL. [/qb][/QUOTE]^I did not know that (about Moqdishu). But as for the Bantu expansions, exactly what was the limit to their expansion? [IMG]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/9b/Bantu_expansion.png/250px-Bantu_expansion.png[/IMG] Today, The furtherst Bantu presence north is southern Somalia, southern Ethiopia, Southern Sudan etc. And limited in Central Africa by the Ubangi river and of course there are still Bantu languages left in the Cameroon border where they originated. What impeded further expansion? A similar question could be said about Afrasian which expanded into Asia only until Mespotamia but impeded by the Zagros mountains of Iran, the Caucasus and Turkey.
