One of the greatest palace to have existed in ancient Africa is the one built by Oba Ewware Ogidigan of the Igodomigodo empire (stretched from Nigeria to Cameroun). It’s architectural level was out of this world, you should look into. I laugh when white people try to claim we all lived in mud houses dancing naked in the jungle when in reality we lived in luxury that could never fathom, projection at its finest.
Since you on this ancient structures topic, I want to ask you if you have ever heard of pyramid type structures in Chad and SE Nigeria. They are supposed to be older than the pyramids in Kemet and Kush. Could you do a programme on these structured of west africa.
Yeah plenty of palaces, castles, fortresses, temples, walls, doors, fences, gates, windows, mirrors, reflections, and tombs that need to be found and dug into
Most definitely! There is still so much to be discovered. I would love to learn more about life during the Songhai Empire! Many books in the Timbuktu Library have yet to be translated into English.
ABOVE the Sahara. The Earth is a sphere, floating through space. It is not a law of physics that the north (also a construct) is above. One can flip everything around and claim that Madagascar is on top of everything. So, Africa ABOVE the Sahara, or Super-Sahara Africa instead of Sub-Sahara (like Sub-human). Words matter. Super-Sahara ftw.
You should do a video on the Funj Sultanate. Not much is known about it but it was a pretty powerful empire that survived ongoing wars with much larger empires. It encompassed most of Modern-day Sudan, west eritrea, west Ethiopia.
We need more examples of architecture below the Sahara. This is one reason many assume there is less history in sub-Saharan Africa. Because they don't see many pre colonial structures still standing.
This was good, I love this site its one of my favourite ruins on the continent, I wish we had an image or illustration showing it at its height. Btw you should do this type of video on the Old Dongola palaces and cathedrals. I have been reading a book on them and I was blown away by the findings. Old Dongola was beautiful and if ever pop culture decides to make a film or tv series based on the Battles of Dongola or any other historical event involving Old Dongola and Makuria they have a lot of information to replicate the city and citadel.
@@medievalafrica Sure the book is called "Dongola - Ancient Tungul archaeological guide" by Wlodzimierz Godlewski, It gives such a vivid picture of the city, its many churches, cathedrals, mansions and palaces etc. It also has some 3D models of some buildings. The Polish archeaologists have done a lot of work alright.
@@sakhu8945 we have resources at home, in case you know little about science, Africa is the richest continent on earth. Everything from Au to U. I just need our people to be brave and go home, and stop living like europeans.
@@sakhu8945 which like I said we need people with honour, integrity, courage, and viable skills (no capitalist 💩). A socialist mentality, ready to work and make our countries great again.
We (The Entire Afro Diaspora) must properly connect with "Black Afrika" (West, East, Central, and Southern Afrika) and assist in the elevation of Afrika and our Afro Diaspora.

Taking off garments as one passes through each gate, reminds me of the mesopotamian myth of Inanna's descent into the underworld. In that story, there were 7 gates, and she was also required to leave a garment at each.
Can you talk about the christian kingdom of the Congo and how they managed to have comunication with the pope in the middle ages, despite being so far away? I have always been curius about how they managed to have long distance comunication of that lenght.
Wow it had a drain pipe: that really is sophisticated. It was also big/extensive and had quarters for the eunuchs (the castrated African slaves). Dry stone wall and baked mud brick, this truly is on a par with Versailles!!! I cannot imagine why this is not often discussed in relation to the palaces of Eurasia.
I don´t know if you know about those strange stone cirlces ound all over africa, that palace is built into one of those "circles", all the location and the style of building tells a much older and different story about the origins, the people at those areas in southafrica say that they didn´t built all that, there are thousands of them, that structure of your video is just one of them... @Home Team History
Good morning as we unfold our history as it manifest today this is why we need to know who you are and what tribe your people come from those who took us from our land don't want us to know these things most get very angry after. The rebirth when you go back to your original being being exposed to the superpowers of your ancestors then you see what you face in the current situation it's enough to up set the average person that's why anger management is essential before baptism In Jesus name I say these these things
Michael Tellinger book African Temples of the Annunaki had a lot of similar ruins that were sooo much older this really isn’t old 10th century and probably middle eastern origins not so much African
Unfortunately we don't show much for our western european and asiatic religious affiliations. We have to return to our own ancestral religions and spirituality.
@@soda8736 should we stay with the white savior lies that serve the people no purpose. And you speak of blood and blood offerings it's throughout many religions Catholicism and Christianity.
@@abelcain945 yes but blood offerings are not done today in Christian religions because they have involved.. why would we go back to something that never involved? Doesn't embrace science.?

Yea, unfortunately that's the narrative THEY had to paint to steer us away from the Riches of our own land and heritage..... works to THIS DAY!
I would love to learn more about this palace as well!
@@ario4795 No, they are actually the after effects of our ancestors savagery, foh no life troll.

Thank you for blessing us with this mostly hidden gem.
Such good info, right?
Yeah plenty of palaces, castles, fortresses, temples, walls, doors, fences, gates, windows, mirrors, reflections, and tombs that need to be found and dug into
Indeed I've dug up some recently in Old Dongola
Good more history needs to be taught about Africa below the Sahara Desert.
Most definitely! There is still so much to be discovered. I would love to learn more about life during the Songhai Empire! Many books in the Timbuktu Library have yet to be translated into English.
Why below the Sahara? Africa is Africa. Blak is blak
💯
We from Alkubulan will have to make rhese palaces a part of our histórica visit cites. There are races who would not want us to k ow they exist.

They destroy many and many of them during slavery and the time of colonisation. They know it more than us.
Unfortunately, many were destroyed by the invading colonial armies.
@@ladybluelotus why didn't Colinal armies destroy structures in the America's ?
@@soda8736 it's obvious. They were preparing a narrative

it looks like the ruins of zimbabwe. I love this video

I have always been curius about how they managed to have long distance comunication of that lenght.
It's bcuz Europeans lied about how much they knew about Africa
The truth is , we aren't really sure how they achieved this , the portugese said Kongo used some sort of writing .
Please make a video about the Lissongo people of Central African Republic. I can't find much on them.
Medieval European maps of Africa show palaces all over Africa.
Funny enough that these ruins are still visible, but yet no one talks about them.

Also you need to look at the Royal Palace of Abomey. (((ROYAL PALACE))) 😂😂

I'm sure there is more than one.
