[QUOTE]Originally posted by Wally: [QB] [b]Igbo accounts of Ancient Egyptian origins from several sources...[/b] "Just like many ancient kingdoms that are now scattered in the Southern part of the Sahara, the Onicha history is rooted in [b]Ancient Egypt[/b]. From linguistics, cultural, cosmological, anthropological, pictorial, traditional and spiritual analyses and comparisons, Onicha people and their Yoruba and Edo relatives are from [b]Ancient Egypt, known then to our ancestors as Kemet.[/b]" --[i]Ugonabo Onwa Amene Esq., Attorney at the International Court of Trade.[/i] "By archeological account, in around 2345BC in Ancient Egypt, "M-Eru-ka (or Eru/Eri)" became a high priest to Pharaoh Teti. Because of this, [b]the Egyptian origin of the Igbo people[/b] as many have insisted is also backed by linguistic evidences proving many Ancient Egyptian words survive in the Igbo language today and has led researchers to focus in this area. A small list of Ancient Egyptian words which survive in the Igbo language are as follows: EGYPTIAN | IGBO (Onitsha and Uburu dialects used) KAKA(God) | Ka (greater, superior) Khu (to kill, death) | Nwu/Gbu (die/to kill) Em (smell) | Imi/Emi (nose, associated with smell) Bi (to become) | Bu (to become) un (living being) | Ndu (life) Feh (to go away) | Feh (to fly away) Budo (dwelling place) | Obodo/ubudo (country, dwelling place) Dudu (black image of Osiris) | Mmadu (person) Un (living person) | Ulo/Uno (living area, house) Beka (pray/confess) | Biko/Beko (to plead, please) Aru (mouth) | Onu (mouth) & kooh/Kwue (to speak) Dor (settlement) | Dor-Nor (sit down, settle) Ra -Shu (light after darkness) | La -Shu (sleep) Aru (rise) | Anu/Kulie (up, rise) Wu (rise) | KWu-ni/Kunie (rise) In- n (negation) nh-n (negation) Ma (to know) | Ma, Ma-li (to know) Se (to create) | Ke (to create) & Se (to draw) Hoo (rejoice) | Goo, ta-Goo (dance, rejoice) Omijener (deep water) | Ime-me (deep inside) Nen (the primeval water mother) | Nem (mother) Ro (talk) | Kwo (to talk) Penka (divide) Panje (break it) Ala (Land of) | Ala (Land of, ground, boundary) Amu (children) | Umu (children) Ani (ground land below) | Ani (ground land below) Ka (higher) | Ka (greater, higher, stronger, above) Pa (open) | Meghee (open) Isi (leader) | Isi (leader, head (body part), female name as in igbo: "Isioma") Oni (AE City) | Oni-tsha (Igbo City) Ikhenaten (name of a Pharaoh) | Ikh-em (Igbo name for a male representing high power) Au-nu (Crocodile) | Anu/Anu-Ma-nu (animal, beast) Miri (water) | Miri (water) [b]Nahasu (other Blacks)[/b] | Ahasi/Ani-hasi (Evening, night) Ak (man) | Ok-a (man) Ehn/Hen (yes, nod head) | Eh (yes, nod head) Paa/Faa (fly) | Feeh/Faa (fly) Utcha (dawn) | Uchi-chi/Utchi-chi(night) MM (among) | Imme (inside, among) W (they) | Uwe (they, them)" --[i]Igbo Community Association of Nigeria[/i] "Fact: Some of the people among the many principalities of Urhobo ethnic group nowadays have a mixture of Ibo people and other groups of Nigerians. For instance; my cultural group of Uvwie, an Urhobo sub-cultural group in [b]our migration journey from Egypt[/b], have settled in Orugbo, in Ondo, settled in Ife, settled in Erohwa, settled in Aboh, settled in Uvwie ro'rho, settled in Evwereni, settled in Patani, settled in Ughelli until we pitched tent in Ekpan, Effurun and their other sister towns. (The Urhobo People, Onigu Otite, 1982). In the process of these movements, we undeniably intermarried with the people we met on the way. Same can be apparently said of the Itsekiri, the Benin , the Ishan, the Ijaw, [b]any other groups in Nigeria in their migrations from Egypt [/b]." --[i]Wilson Ometan, URHOBO-WORLD.ORG [/i] :cool: [/QB][/QUOTE]
