[QUOTE]Originally posted by Clyde Winters: [QB] The earliest civilization in Southwest Arabia date back to the 2nd Millenium. This culture is called the Tihama culture which originated in Africa (Fattovich, 2008). At Tihama and other sites in Arabia we find pottery related to the C-Group people of Nubia (Keall, 2000;2008; Fattovish, 2008; Giumlia-Mair, 2002)The archaeological evidence indicates that C-Group people expanded from Nubia to Mesopotamia and the Indus Valley.These people spoke a Niger-Congo language. The Tihama culture is characterized by the cheesecake or pillbox burial monuments which extend from Dhofar in Nubia, the Gara mountains to Adulis on the Gulf of Zula, to Hadramaut, Qataban, Ausan, Adenm, Asir, the Main area and Tihama. The archaeological evidence places Kushites in Arabia before Semitic speakers. This would explain the genetic relationship between Egyptian and Black African languages Rudolfo Fattovich, The development of urbanism in the Northern Horn of Africa in ancient and Medieval Times.
