[QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Israel: [qb] Myths are not necessarily 'falsifications' of historical events. Within the myth there is an element of truth. In West Africa, many different people groups believe that they migrated from the east. This includes: the Hausa, the Yoruba, etc. I do wish that Moustafa Gadalla had more historical evidence, but that doesn't mean that his thesis is incorrect. [/qb][/QUOTE]Of course there is [i]some[/i] truth to it. All evidence shows that the ancestors of many groups in West Africa came from the Sahara when it was once fertile and green. The same is true for Nile Valley peoples including the Egyptians, in that some of their ancestors also came from the Sahara-- thus the connection between West Africans and Nile Valley peoples. This is entirely different from Gadalla's theory that there was a mass exodus of Nile Valley folks into West Africa after dynastic times. [/QB][/QUOTE]
