The Bantu Migration Never Happened, It Was A Nilo-Saharan(Zanj) Invasion :: Part I

- Опубликовано: 28 сен 2024
- The adoption of this inaccurate Bantu Migration theory has been a result of ignoring African History before European Imperialism, which explains the origins and conditions that led to the formation of many of the modern ethnic groups in Africa.
The presence of the Proto-Bantu in Southern Africa as early as 3000 BCE, throws the entire Bantu Migration theory out the window, because this theory states that the people speaking Bantu languages began migrating out of West-Central Africa in approximately 400 CE.
It’s not a pretty story, many won’t like it, but begins to explain proclivities, loyalties and why things are how they are.

Zanj is a very derogatory term & not a culturally specific term. Bantu a word which was taken to classify languages into one major group (quite arbitrarily applied). All these are theories- a lot of stuff happens in 9k years. Larger groups split into smaller groups and smaller groups built larger ones. In addition, other people did this too and they mingle and create new groups but throughout the millennia preserve certain ethical teachings, certain linguistic similarities but then again, integrate cultural elements from other people and this is why there is this high diversity in looks. Nonetheless, in Western culture a lot of people racialise Bantu as if were a phenotype. In the end: Those who know the connections, genealogy, bonds and the stories of migrations, wars and peace making know. Like Baba Credo Mutes said:”Bantu are the most stubborn people on the planet” so no one can ever come up with any theory which will be acceptable for all: In the end, motho/muntu identity is not to be theorised, analysed but to be lived which can only happen when you (collectively) have ancestral land to bond with and to administer. Currently, the UAE owns African territory in the size of the UK - we know the common origin of our many people but will never agree upon how and when it happened. So, let us just focus on not having more of our sacred land controlled by foreign hands. Khotso (Peace)
Not really. The region Tan-Zan-ia was called "Azania" on ancient maps. The Arabs called Bantuphone Zanj from this name "A-zan-ia". As well as Zan-zibar.
Ya we a stubborn bunch
@@Changamira Zanj comes from Shenzi, it's from the word that you get Zanj and Azania and Tanzania...Shenzi were once a powerful people...then invasion from Nubia and Axum destroyed them.
because a bunch of idiots turn every good word into something derogatory does not mean we always have to follow suit.
@@ChangamiraI think I get it from that point. Why the Arabs called the Black slaves Zanj (the ones that rebeled and conquered they masters)
Thank you Honey!!! As an American descendant of slavery we get ZERO information about true African beginnings trace back to. This was Great!!!! ❤
What proof do you have you are descendants of slavs?
I'm not being mean. I'm just curious as a researcher.
Most of the grand parents and great grand parents where first born out of slavery most of us with a little research can find records right up until mid slavery . Some of us can track our ancestors to there slave ships . There were also 20 tribes that where descendants of African migrations and oceanic black tribes that where here thousands of years ago who where conquered and lived amongst the mongoloid Indians when they came here in waves
Be careful of this content it is very prejudicial and tribalist, the person is promoting horrendous baTonga chauvinism, making out that all other groups in the region are thieves, debaucherous imposters and liars. Really, these words are verbatim what she said about other Africans and I'm appalled by her comments as they are really divisive and tribalist. Look for other sources of knowledge from people who truly have ALL Africans' heritage at heart.
How sure is she and how sure are you. Migration was a way of life.
You are correct however PARTLY. THE Bantu actually did migrate and the Bantu were once all across the Northern parts of Africa and left. You saying they were never found in the Northern parts isn't correct and you contradict yourself.
I am using the standard definition of Migration - which is the movement of people from one country another(not their own). The Proto-Bantu in Ancient Egypt(North - 343 BCE) simply moved into another area of their own country because Ancient Egypt was a colony of their larger Kingdom south of the Sahara. In this case to Msanza(the South or Southern Kingdom).
They weren't leaving their country, they were simply relocating to a different part - from North to Msanza and that isn’t a migration but a relocation.
Makes sense the way u explain it
Bantu is word coined by a German linguist after spending time with Nguni people in present day South Africa.
WELL DONE!
ANOTHER GREAT VIDEO.
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK PLEASE :)
Best video on the internet...I love this.
I don't think this video makes sense when it comes to dates , Bantus migration took place 1500bce and arab invasion of Africa happened 600-700AD almost 2000 year's apart ....
This was an interesting video and gives a nice perspective. Is there anywhere where someone can find your sources? I always struggle to find good info on pre-colonial history
wow randomly found this... This is an interesting topic
I thought the Bantu migration happened in 1500 B.C?? The OOA model and linguist models seem to place that migration at that time frame, which appears inclusive of Natufian migrations. Also, the y-dna haplogroup E of both Bantu and Natufians means they were a related people. It is my belief they are the same group being reclassified with a new name. Author Jacqueline Battalora said it best in her book, The birth of a “white nation", 'white people were created to cause division".

If we always see ourselves different, when will we be the same?
They lie. Who said Bantu expansion? It was the Boers who invaded SA from Holland. In order the justify their invasion of a foreign continent and land, they dreamed up the story of a major African invasion of Southern Africa by a western/Central African group. I’ve never believed the story and knew they made it up to justify their invasion of SA.
This is so informative, you are filling in the blanks to our African history that has been lost or corrupted for years😮. You also have a beautiful voice, easy on the ears so that we can absorb this beautiful information. Your content is of great quality, your channel will be growing fast 😊. Thank you 🙏🏾
Thank you for the lovely words and watching the video. I appreciate it. 💙❤
I think there is something in what you say. For example the dispersal point of the Bantu languages appears to have been in the Sahel region. Elsewhere, the Bantu of Kenya claim a dispersal point around Malindi/Sabaki/Tana river delta(Shungwaya ) region. The present day Somali allude to the Tutsi/ Hima people as their distant cousins. All these can be explained by an encircling invasion from the North such as the one you propose. Further other groups in Kenya e.g. Luhya and Kikuyu claim to have arrived from Egypt (Misri). The thing is, where are your sources?
I included the years so that you can cross-check the years and the people in the region during those events, those support my work.
This work like all History is my interpretation of events based on understanding the Proto-Cultures, Languages and reading various sources -- they are many and unless you understand the cultures, you probably won't understand what to look for - it's not clear for example the Zulu traditional homes - those have been in front of everybody's faces, but no one so far bothered to think deeply about them.
Those are Nilotic/Galla(I know that isn't used). No one seems to have pointed that out, yet in a paper, so you won't this information neatly presented in a textbook right now, because we are still putting it together. A wrong story was told.
The Somali were part of the Galla/Oromo Confederation, Henry Salt wrote about them(there's your source). Their language isn't Hima or Tutsi related - assuming the Bana Mulenge(Banyamulenge)-Subiya spoke the same language with these two groups. The Somali aren't cattle herders or don't have the cattle culture - Hima and Tutsi are Proto-Bantu words/expressions and the current people carrying these identities may match the ancient illustrations of these Proto-Bantu who were most likely the part of Punt in that region - still validating this find.
@@inyenyenzi Thank you madam. I will check out Henry Salt. In the meantime, thanks again. I find your reading of the hieroglyphs fascinating. May I presume, to enquire if you have considered or are perhaps collaborating with a linguist?
@@lavimuia7612 I am the accidental Linguistic in this case, based on my own knowledge of my culture which speaks the Proto-Bantu Language.
Being a Computer Scientist helps, because I am trained to look for patterns and write algorithms(predict, mimic and simulate outcomes) and Public Health helps too because it involved Systems Thinkings - so I tend to look at wholes and relationships.
I have put together the Proto-Bantu Alphabet, something no one has done so far, which helped me do this work - I will publish that soon. I am yet to find people interested in this work. I suppose I will do the Linguistics PhD starting next year.
The title of Henry Salt's work is 'A voyage to Abyssinia and Travels Into the Interior of that Country' - it's set in the 1800s, but it's a good place to start working backwards.
@@inyenyenziThank you, madam. I look forward to seeing the Proto Bantu alphabet. And- all the best in your PhD studies.

I absolutely love your work. It’s the slavery that gets to me 💔.. I have a BIG question for you - one which nobody has been able to answer. The term “Guthetha” , or “thema” seems to Historically ONLY have an Egyptian connection (stretching of chords). Yet in Semitic texts the term seems to be linked to the very Arabs in the north. This is confusing because according to our languages South of the Sahara, the terms links to cutting or “black”, yet there’s no actual origin of this word. Every Bantu group has a word for “cut” or “black” being “Ndima” or “Tema”… yet tHEma with the “h” gives a whole new meaning. Please assist.
In my language rema is to cut tema is swahili for to spit out something
Thank you for that - so the word exists on this side of the world.
@@maphuthegommaboreramela4586 In GiKuyu language in Kenya, gu-thima is to weigh or to measure something. Stretching chords/rope is a very old bantu reference to measuring something, especially to parcels of land, and it found its way into the bible.
The semitic/Arab link might have been picked up by them when they invaded Egypt. I speak KiSwahili too and I'm discovering that some of the KiSwahili words that are attributed to Arabic origins are in fact, purely bantu, because I'm finding them in other bantu languages spoken as far from East Africa as eSwatini.
Gu-tema is also the GiKuyu word for 'to cut'.
@@maphuthegommaboreramela4586 'Tema' also exists in the KiKamba language of Kenya, and Shona, if I'm not wrong, all meaning 'to cut'.
@@kim1570 THIS is the information I was looking for. It’s been Bothering me for weeks now. Been looking for information about my family and they all think they’re Arabs due to this “link”. Thank you 🔥❤️
Would you consider doing a video on the Bantu influence on the arabic language?

Explain the genocide that the Bantu committed against the Khoisans and the pygmies
We didn't call you Baastards, make fun of your language, pile your community with drugs and alcohol and make mercenaries out of you - that wasn't us - you had access to guns and used them to destroy your San and Damara kin. Your video is coming soon, it will help explain origins.
True Bantu follow Muuya, we are not allowed to unalive anyone, just defend to weaken - it's in our DNA programming - Bantu were misidentified, which is why I do these videos, to correct it.
Your question should be 'Why are Nilo-Saharans in Bantu territory?' The Khoe are likely originally Damara - Nilo-Saharan-Twa people.
The Khoe were likely Damara before they mixed with the San before they mixed with Europeans-Malay-Bantu at the Cape Colony.
It was the Khoe that committed genocide against the San.
The Damara seem to come from the Twa-Nilo-Saharan-Delta region and may have been guarding the Namibian coast for someone - because that isn't their original home. The people who brought them into Bantu territory were mostly Nilo-Saharan slave hunters who called them Doko - I will do a video about their abductions.
The Bantu had no use for the San, Khoe and Twa, we do our own work. They did abduct the San who stole their daughters and cattle as punishment.
Thank you so much I was asking God for something like this. ✝️✝️✝️
😂
Great video what are some of the books or resources to study African history?
Hi there. Wondering if there are Any books you’d recommend on this? I love this programme you’ve done here but sadly I have trouble absorbing information by ear, no matter how well done. I want to learn the expanse of this history. Thank you
Thanks for watching. I will compile a list and post one soon.
Thank you so much
@@inyenyenzi This will be very helpful!
This was bloody sad😥
Weee!! you have nailed it, summarized everything and explained 10,000 complex topics and histories in one single video! how AMAZING! I'm Kenyan Luhya and you have summarized our history so well.
Yes you're correct, we had Mwami(King) and had nothing to do with paramount chief(Likuru/Mukuru/Ikuru) which UNESCO and Nilo-Saharans lie about. Yes! yes...we were invaded, by the Nilo-Saharan Cushites, yes they took over our kingdoms and ruled them until colonialist arrived and good example is Bunyoro-Rwanda-kitara-Chwezi empires which were larger but was sliced up by the Nilo-Saharans militaries!! yes they changed our history to fit in themselves into our culture and history and made us aliens or West Africans!! Yes they fled from Turks or Muslims who chased them from Sahel and far North East...ANOTHER THING THAT I WANT TO ADD, The whole "EZANA GENOCIDE ERA"...King Ezana an Indian colonialist from Axum launched and invaded Nubia and did one of the biggest unaliving of Nilo-Saharans...and guess who occupied Nubia then and occupy it today? what did Ezana an Amhara-Tigray(modern rulers of Ethiopia) do to Nilotes in Ethiopia? what did he accuse Nilo-Saharans of and was Ezana even a king because no records of kingship exist among Nilo-saharans, Amhara or Tigray but were FEAUDAL CASTE system. So after those attacks, where did the Anwak, Luo, Hima, Tutsi ,Kalenjins refugees and militaries flee to? THEY CAME TO OUR BANTU KINGDOMS!! and first thing they did was accuse us of being west Africans!! Which Europeans adopted....Luo(Obama's tribes) are the main architecture of the so called "Bantu migration" yes!! It was coined in Uganda-Western Kenya in 1891 by Charles Hobley then imposed on Zulus in 1990s. And yes...Nyina were royal mother queens and therefore the name "Nyanza" which was the original name for Lake Victoria...from an etymology of Vanyina_Vanyanza...still Nilo-Saharan tried to appropriate these names and our culture...but the fact that the word "Nyasa" or "Nyanza" even exist further south by other Bantu and absent in Sudan and Sahel tells you a-lot. Mombasa esp Siwa kisiwani was a Bantu civilization, "kismayo" KISIMA-HIYO capital city of Somalia is a Bantu word!!
😅😅😅😅😅😅nice story, go fight with whites, not with us, we never been..... you know what.
Excellent addition bro. Yes, Nyina/Nina means in Bantu South Africa (e.g. Zulu language) mother. And when you hear Kinyarwanda you hear nothing but Bantu like Kiswaheli (the original one) etc.
The myth about Bantu migration is the same like when Europeans say they discovered America, what a joke, when native American and other, including Africans, have long time been there or arrived.
From Southern Ethiopia southwards until South Africa the bantu phenotype in language, culture, food is so evident while complete amiss in West Africa, including rock paintings showing cattle/farming, a lifestyle linked with Bantus and NOT with the hunter gatherers Khoisans.
But cold blooded non-bantu invaders combined with bantu soft-heartedness led to the islamic invasion in East Africa and later to the European invasion.
The Southern Africa, esp Zulus (who by the way spread/fled inner fights up to Tanganyika and are the sources of the Maji Maji rebellion now known as Ngonis/Ngunis), Xhosa or Swatis and some others form the Southern Bantu Ancient Kingdoms still possess 100% Bantu culture, beleifs, spirituality because they could avoid the cultural invasion of the Muslims and the Europeans never really mixed with them, do not understand the languages, cultures, codes etc up to this day.
Some Bantus did expand towards modern West Africa though ( bantus are by far the largest group in Africa) and mixed with pigmies, Sahel / West Africans.
The reconnection of the great Bantu nation in the entire Southern, Eastern and Central Africa must be started and shall shine and this way strengthen the entire sub saharan africa.

@@niokandegeyou are right. Walter Rodney did not include his sources and even though he was an exceptional intellect who had a rare knowledge of African history across the continent this has resulted in his work falling out of common use in more recent times because there is simply no way of checking the accuracy of the information he gathered.
No matter how gifted an intellect a person is, it’s impossible to know how accurate their source material is without others who are knowledgeable about those sources being able to verify their authenticity
It’s so easy to have what we consider reliable sources and not realise errors within them
That is not true. We have the BANTU migration in our bloodline, it's like a map. Every country is represented.
How?
The Zanj do not originate from the Great Lakes region they migrated from Atlantic Africa 2000 thousands of years ago. The Bantu spread iron to other parts of Africa, South ,Southeast, and Central African iron and culture. This is credited to Bantu people, not Cushitic groups who lived their before.
@@AbbysinianReaction l can easily debunk you...just look up one word.."Funj"
Secondly, the so called Zanj rebellion, according to history and timeline those were Not Bantu but Nilo-Cushites, e.i Luos, sahelians, somalis, Ethiopians etc..
@@AbbysinianReactionHowever that is the eurocentric narrative we've been fed our whole lives,let's try something different

Site your sources please, because your claims contradict mainstream history. I cannot agree nor disagree without doing my research, I believe you understand my scepticism. However, this is an interesting video and your thesis is worth investing. Only a fool would blindly dismiss it.
Thanks for watching. I will do a video discussing my sources and how I put this all together. They are over 20, which is why I included a year which can be validated for the event, then knowledge of African Ethnography and Linguistics helps identify the populations in the literature.
Just because we speak English doesn't make us related to the English.
Unfortunately the current Bantu-Migration and Identity/Classification Theory is based on simply grouping people as one because the spoke similar language, without details on how this came about.
The conventional narrative falls apart when you take an ethnographic approach.
I will do a video on the Zulu next and the Tswana because I am interested in understanding how the Tswana language derived from the Proto-Bantu
Christianity was brought to Africa by the Greeks. As you just quoted a Greek in Axum
It was in Kush in 1 AD brought in by the Kushites, long before this event.
the proto bantu theory is a bit shaky, kind of like the indo-european theory if you have ever seen it. but i think you are also oversimplifying dynamics which are more likely true, namely the constant rise and collapse and subsequent repeated migrations of people, which i see no reason why such things couldnt have started before this proto-bantu hypothesise. further the need for trade, and the co-habitation of spaces by various people, and thus the emergence of lingua-francas to facilitate relationships -- which would also include relationships of conquest and defense. Further, your islamist theory i think is quite off because it assumes that islam is somehow racialized rather than a system capable of being universalized/a system with a capacity to integrate people. which it it absolutely is, it even historically would go as far as eventually integrating slaves and their kin over time, and it became a widespread religion among african rulers, and of course it has african overtures and it was in africa that islamic refugees were harboured and undoubtably integrated into those socities. hence why you have different islamic cultures -- not merely the overly simplified sunni and shia, but also the various cultural distinctions of islam as it has been practiced in different parts of the world. civilizations rise and collapse, thats a repeated feature in history, and expanisive empires also often engage in wars of extermination -- which may account for such drastic cultural changes. not merely that people were exterminated, but that their numbers dwindled, and they migrated, or they were put in peril through slavery, and the toll of slave socieities on oppressed women (namely the loss of control over reproductive faculties to the dominating socities).
A language family, especially closely related ones like Bantu, would have had at some point a Proto language. The term Bantu was coined by European scholars after they studied hundreds of languages and noticed the very close similarities. Africans had no idea they belonged to a vast language family but would have noticed similarities to their neighbour's language. Proto-Bantu roots and vocabulary has been reconstructed.
@@stephentaylor2119 you see how stupid this assumption is? africans had no idea over their very history? or africans are unaware of what they are doing? it has to be one or the other or both. the issue is you treat the language independent of the context of what is producing its use in particular ways -- trade, cultures, migration etc.
The Bantu migration happened long before the rise of Axum, your account does not explain why you say migration did not happen to me. Most of this video just relates the history of Africa which is common knowledge by now.
The Proto-Bantu were already in their Kingdom and didn't have to migrate. It's the one in blue on the map. It's the West-Central Africans and Nilo-Saharans that migrated into Bantu territory and in some(most) cases invaded.
Those are the israelites hebrew people the one who invaded
How do you know that? Were you there? Were your ancestors there?

Without a source, no one will pay attention to you. It is not valid to say that they are "your conclusions" because it does not work that way.
It does, the Bantu Migration is just a theory. No one ever proved the Bantu Migration happened nor have they ever proved the Bantu came from West-Central Africa and everything I just presented throws the Bantu Migration out the window. It hinges on the BaTonga coming out of that direction, I am part of the BaTonga(West of Great Zimbabwe) we came from the Nile, that's always been the origin story and we speak the Ancient Egyptian language, we have the Jackal headed god and Muuya(Maat) too- they were the Proto-Bantu.

"Christianity" was not in "Africa"
Christianity as in Jesus' sects.
Jesus' parents fled to Egypt for safety - and Jesus' whereabouts were unaccounted for between ages 12 and 30 - the Romans accounted for these - he was in Ancient Egypt learning from African Priests - the resurrection of Lazarus is a very common talent among Proto-Bantu Priests and Priestesses.
The Royal Court of Ancient Kasha(Kush) practiced Christianity which is why the Treasurer or Court Official is baptized by Philip in the Book of Acts - Matthew preached in Ethiopia and all this happened way before Axum.
Colonial Portuguese went looking for Prester John in Africa, that's where they got a lot of their historical data on Christianity.

Zanj is not an African term. And to top it off its negative.
Zanj =zanzi =south
It likely isn't an African term. I use it because it is currently the term used to describe this population.
Your use is fine. Zanj in Arabic means the "country of the blacks". Other transliterations include Zenj, Zinj, and Zang
Also go pull up the Movie: Congo about the gorilla. They are looking for Solomons gold and Diamond. Why always looking for King David and Solomon on African expeditions… hmm. They are looking for the treasures in the “Lost city of Zinj” also while staying at the Leopold Hotel.

The Bantu inhabited ancientc Egypt and were pharaohs.
There's too much evidence to support this.
Zanj is an Arabic word for BaNtu.This is where Zanzibar gets it's name from.Also TanZANIA.Other variations are Zangi,Zingi,SengChi (chinese pronunciation). Zanj were never Nilotes nor Kushites.This SEntIMent is self defeating.

Zanj means rusty. Has nothing to do with the word “Bantu”. The term Bantu is understood as zanj in Arabic but it’s literal meaning does not mean Bantu 👍🏿💯 it means “Rusty”👍🏿💯
@@AkanIbnDja so if the zanj aren't Bantu how is it humanly possible that in the ancient maps of Africa the Zanj are found in the areas of east African coast?How is it possible that we dnt find people in areas of Ethiopia or Sudan with the name Zanj yet they mingled with the Arabs?
How coincidental is it that the zanj revolution in Iraq was is connected to Bantu slaves that had been taken to Iraq?
Arab writer Al Masudi (circa 900AD) in his book "The golden meadows" writes:
[....] as we have said above,the Zing with other Abyssinian tribes spread themselves to the right of the Nile straight to the sea of Abyssinia (red sea).Of all the Abyssinian tribes, the zanj were the only ones who crossed the canal which comes out of upper Nile.They established themselves in this country and spread themselves as far as sofala( Mozambique), which is on the sea of zanj the furthest limit wither ships sail from Oman and Siraf...[......]
So the zanj are clearly distinguished from the other Abyssinian (African) tribes.
Who are the zanj that spread themselves down to Mozambique?
Which people inhabit these areas?
Bantu people.

Only a fool,and there's one here,will dispute the fact that Christianity and even more ,Islam are religions indigenous to black Africans.this makes black african christian and Muslim converts,conditioned into self demonization to get real angry.meanwhile the white church n white mosque are sleepless after the millennia long lie explodes spectacularly,bringing down even those ruling houses of Europe claiming descendancy from scriptural authority like in switzerland.everyone was lied to,conned by some crafty,old criminals in Rome and mecca
Bantu migration did exist,same as black Jews migrate back to Africa when Roman took over Jerusalem he Bantu moved to Yemen, Sardegnia island Italy to India many other parts of the world.
Bantu khoisan and Yoruba came to America in 1900BC according to My True Ancestry dna testthats over 3900 years ago
Some of us are here, Botswana..South Africa, Lesotho, Zambia, Zimbabwe e.t.c we are just many just goggle...also known as the Israelites the people of the bible
You are right with what you are saying but the Ancestors of black Americans,Yoruba or should I say 12 Hebrew tribes were from Khoi people/Damara people as they came from Pleiades and some from Niburu with Enki,they were known as Olmecs and Australia aborigines and Jamaicans were also one group before Thoth devided them and moved them out of Kemet 12000years ago,San people are the ancestors of Anunaki,and they were the only ones with the Creator DNA and were known as Ancient Ones in Zep-Tepi that's when they ruled Zep-Tepi 850,000years ago now that was not their first civilization,The San originally come from the beyond dimension that exist above all the universes and then they were moved to the Dragon dimension and our 4th King created the Dragon race that turn against the San people and they had to move to Acturias,Pleiades,Bootes constellation Nindura but in this universe the most powerful was Planet Jomon in Acturias were the 5th San King created Sunayens/Teros biengs,there was war between Xenu 4th San King and Altean 5th ,,were Pleiades and Dragon dimension was fighting and Pleiades won,over 1,2billion San were moved from Pleiades to earth in about 3,5billion years ago but Altean's descendant created the Anunaki race as warrior race to fight off the Xenu but they lost the second battle and Xenu successfully took over Planet Jomon with nuking everything on the planet,and then in Bootes constellation Alteans great grandsons were fighting over who shall take control of Bootes constellation and a civil war broke out and the Pleiades leaders created Niburu were the Anunaki we know today werê moved now during that time the Creator send his first son to come and look after earth and San people,so Enki Yahuah Osiris Odin Allah came to earth to his ancestor and met the 6th King of San the one that rules Amenti Agartha in Antarctica and he married his cousin and had a son Thoth Yeshua and he was given this planet as a right to ruled he not only was respected through out universes but love by everyone and then came Enlil Yahweh Satan aka YAKUB and he was jealouse as allways because earth Ki was the most valuable think in the universe and was unmatched by any planet,Anu loved Enlil more than Enki because Enki at that point his age was 1,5 millions years and Enlil was a young man in his 80,000years of age Enkis first son Marduk was 600,000 years old and his second son was Amun-Ra was 370,000,Thoth is only older then Methuselah and Enoch/Tenoch with 45,000years back then 400,000 years ago,Enki capital was built in Namibia which later became Jerusalem but was known as Eridu and after Enlil used Nuclear weapons on Namibia the people moved to Zep-Tepi/Kemet,Black Americans do not know were they Originated from but it's a country called Namibia were their ancestor people Damara people live but alot of knowledge has been lost because there was war on Namibia by NATO invaded Namibia and tried to exterminate Khoisan groups so that no hebrew Americans will know the true story,The ones in charge of the country are not Indigenous people they used that people to penetrate and kill Khoisan people,They would recruit Khoisan men to fight against whites but when they left with them they would kill all the man and throw them into huge graves and they hunted Khoisan people for 40years to Kill them off the Government's and NATO nations had issued a license to Kill all Khoisan groups in 1950s but 2day we don't hear about that no one talks about that..

BC(before Christ) and AD(In the Year of Our Lord) are also BCE(before common era) and CE(common era). Still implies the same thing. I am just using the secular notation. You need to keep up with information, information is rarely static.

No!
You are simply trying to hide history.
BCE means nothing, and it has no historical reference.
You are being used like a pawn....
So quick to call someone a liar over semantics. Please add to the conversation positively or move along. Many understand BC/AD is now rendered as BCE/CE - semantics
@inyenyenzi please continue adding your input. It is valuable and a wealth of knowledge. Bring to the forefront conversations on on an international level pertaining to Bantu and it's connection to Egypt, North Africa, and the Horn of Africa. If time permits, I hope you can bring a few Scriptural passages into focus. Again, keep dropping your nuggets. Ignore the peanut gallery and naysayers.
@@inyenyenzice is definitely a real academic term
Great content. Absolutely agree
We can't have Bantu history without migration
The people that migrated aren't True/Proto Bantu, because the Bantu were always in their Kingdom. These populations were relocated into Bantu territory by the Arabs and then the Portuguese to entrench and undermine the True Bantu so they could gain access to the resources gold and land.
@@inyenyenzi how do you explain the repeated stories of migration in the oral traditions passed down through the generations. Is the oral literature wrong?
It was an expansion more than a migration
She has to do more research or just tells that her narration is based on her opinion.
It's critical thinking. Explain why the Zulus build Nilo-Saharan style houses and layout their homes in the same way, when they are supposed to be Bantu and stone masons? Explain why Sotho-Tswana-Nguni languages have Nilo-Saharan accent? Explain the Rolong, Mofokeng, that 'ng' sound isn't Bantu - we always have terminating vowels - but also why they still have Bantu spirituality and language expressions in addition to the Nilo-Saharan.
Also the Nilo-Saharans who invaded East Africa used 'Luba' as a title for their leaders and this may have become the 'Luba Kingdom'
It's critical thinking and understanding African ethnology.
According to my understanding, the Zanj were black people from East Africa enslaved by Arabs and in the Middle East. Before Black people were enslaved, Black people had already travelled the world. There was Black populations in India, Pakistan, Iran, Irag, Palestine. The most of the Black people out of these populations came back to Africa. So these migrations have been happening for millennia. The Zanj/Islamic story is more recent, 700 A.D. the Zanj were a small group and could have not affected Africa much. When you take into consideration/study the ancient histories of Asia, the Black people who populated and civilized those lands, it will make sense that there was a migration in Africa. The first calendar in the world in South Africa is more than 100 000 years old. The oldest calculator 20 000 years from Congo. All these people are one. The creators of the calendar are the civilizers of Iran and India. Coming out of Africa to civilize the world and back to Africa
Absolutely fascinating and informative. It is interesting to see that the great African disruption didn't start with the trans Atlantic slave trade. According to your interesting narrative, the first major disruption was caused by the Zanj. That makes a lot of sense to me.
It would be interesting to find out the true origins of the Khoi-San people of southern Africa. They seem to have existed for centuries. Some claim that they are the oldest Africans. Yet, they do not resemble any other Africans. Their skin tone is lighter and different from that of other Africans . And, unlike moste other Africans, they seem to have remained stuck in the hunter-gathering stage when the rest of the continent had "moved on." Could there be an explanation for this group of Africans?
According to my understanding, as a South African, "Bantu" means "those of Ntu" or "people of Ntu."
Kwe people are very much like other Africans. They are merely lighter than most other African groups.
THE most fascinating continent on earth.
Everything you post is in opposition to proven facts. What are your sources. Cite them. Otherwise, you're just an attention-seeking liar.
This is so informative
Bantu claim everything but they never had a single kingdom in ancient time.
Sometimes they are ancient Egyptian,next it is Israelites,next moors and now she is mentioning axum and Mogadishu.your people never set foot in horn of Africa where the warrior Cushite dwell
Thanks for watching. Proto-Bantu are Proto-Bantu. We aren't Moors who are Kushite/NiloSaharan-Arab and we aren't Israelites either. We never said we were anything else, other people did, not us. Oh and it's not Punt, it's Pwnt- 'Pa Wantu' - from the Proto-Bantu - 'ntu', that was ours.
It's the other way round...non Bantu never had kingdoms until their started importing Bantu slvs...l can prove it...
It was all caste system, Hunter and gathers, pastoral or war like..
Only Bantus had kingdoms..this is proved by others who invaded Bantu like Luos, Tutsi, Arabs and finally Europeans themselves.
Cusjitics were conquered by arabs
Do a d.n.a test bishar just to establish the percentage of proto and contemporary bantu component in you.most somalis have above 50% proving their maternal ancestors especially were n are still bantu.mainstream Bantus especially in Kenya carry about 35-65% os semitic/cushitic d.n.a.
Bantu’s were in Somalia before anyone came in. Even in Egypt. We are still in Somalia. We speak the Somali language and we are Muslims. A lot of cities in Somalia derived from Bantu language. My mom used to tell me how the Cushites and the Bantus used to fight over land which her grandfather told her.
You call Mogadishu dwellers proto Bantu yet all historians including ibn Batuta, Ibn Saeed almaghribi, Africanus called them Berbers/Moors not Zinj which is the term Ibn Batuta and others called the poeple of Malindi and Zanzibar differentiating them from the people of Mogadishu🤔
Attaching time to these events helps identify people.
Mogadishu before the Sultanate was Proto-Bantu. Once the Sultanate was established it become Moorish or Arab. As in the upper class were considered Arab because in their culture one is Arab if they have an Arab father. This is important because a Sultanate could only be legitimately established by an Arab person - one with Arab heritage. The establishment of this Mogadishu Sultanate changed demographics and could explain the hostility towards Bantu in that region. The Proto Bantu didn't give it up so easily. These Sultans often had Zanj mercenaries working for them and expanding.
The Zanj were mostly Nilo Saharans and Kushite people some who were part Arab. The people of Malindi and Zanzibar had already been invaded by the Nilo-Saharan Kushites and some West-Central Africans by the time Arab writers got there which is why the Arab writers recognized them as Zanj, because they knew them from Iraq, the Saharan Sultan adjacent regions.
The same Arab writers made a point to state that there were different people before the Zanj in Southern Africa were Wakulim*(they dropped the terminating vowel).
These were the Proto-Bantu and there is alot of evidence of this Zanj invasion. Two things, one is in the use of cow dung for building. The Nilo Saharans use cow-dung for their floors, Proto-Bantu used stone to build. The style of housing changed too, the Zulu traditional homes are of Nilo-Saharan origin, not because the Zulu are Nilo-Saharan Kushite, but the Proto-Bantu population was invaded by Nilo-Saharan Kushite people. UShaka looked like John Garang if we are being very honest.
The Proto-Bantu also had a distinct look and did not look like the Congolese or West Coast Africans. They had light brown complexions and were often tall both men and women.
This phenotype is mostly gone now because of the invasions. We will get into that in another video. Hope that clears it up.
@@inyenyenzithat's false cause ibn khaldun who was Arab himself didn't call the sultanate or the people of Mogadishu as Arab but said it's a Berber sultanate with Berber people (mashariq berber in Arabic meaning eastern Berbers to differentiate them from the north African Berbers) and he said from Mogadishu to the city of Zeila are the Berber people not proto bantu or Arab people. He also said the sultanate of Mogadishu uses Arabic as lingua franca to trade with other Muslim sultanates and their local native language for communication. And when he went to the location of Zanzibar and modern day Kenya he said the people are Zinj. And pre Islamic history says the horn African region was known Macrobian or Erythrean to the Greeks since the redsea stretches upto the eastern part of Somalia which is where the name horn comes from. Again majority of Bantus are e1b1a genetically while Berber, Cushite, Habesha people belong to the haplo group E1b1b so no the horn of Africa was never proto Bantu or Bantu. Ibn Batuta who was also Arabised Arab (meaning someone who was linguistically Arab) said between the city of Zeila in the north of modernday Somalia and the city of Mogadishu are the poeple of the Berbers not Arab or proto Bantu. Also Africanus who was from Andulus (modern day spain) literally says the same thing about horn Africa he says the Berbers occupy Zeila and Mogadishu and to their west in the interior are the Highlander Habeshas or Abyssinians and to the south of Mogadishu are the Zinj so i don't understand why you spreading false information.
no, ibn khaldoun who was Arab himself would've called the rulers or the sultanate of Mogadishu as Arab but he instead called them mashariq Berbers (eastern Berbers to differentiate them from north African Berbers). He also said between Zeila and Mogadishu are the Berbers and to their west in the interior are the animalist and Highlander Habeshas or Abyssinians/Axumites. And in pre Islamic history the horn of Africa was known as Macrobia or Erythrean to the Greeks since the redsea stretches upto the eastern part of modernday Somalia which is where the name horn Africa comes from due to it's horn shape. The horn of Africa was always occupied by Cushites, Berbers, Macrobians, Erythreans, Nilotic people like the Gambela people in Ethiopia, Hunter gatherers groups like the Ari in Ethiopia or the Eylo in Somalia it was never occupied by Bantu or Arab. Both Arab and Bantus are late comers to the horn of Africa. Other explorers like Zheng from China, Leo africanus from Andulus in modern day spain called Mogadishu as Berber not proto bantu/Bantu or Arab while they called people of Mombasa and Zanzibar as Zanj.

You are WRONG.
Then invalidate everything I just said but a heads up the Nilo-Saharan architecture the Zulu build as traditional homes after they were invaded by Nilo-Saharans is already against you, in addition to the blood drinking practice, udonga and the women's Nilo-Saharan dress in the 1800s and haircuts....I could go on
You’re European 😅
Zanj & Bantu are the same silly.
Nilo-Saharan, West-Central African and Proto-Bantu aren't the same people. Zanj were mostly Nilo-Saharan, West-Central African so was Yasuke - the 'African Samurai' which shows how far they'd migrated into Proto-Bantu territory. They are the ones that migrated into Proto-Bantu territory after they escaped slavery from the Sultanates and Iraq.

There are two main reasons people migrate: war and economic pursuit usually farming or grazing land. It's always been like this to this day. The other one is forced migration usually for enslavement
A mash-up of bits and pieces of history, with totally inaccurate dates thrown into the mix. The Narrator is more interested in countering what Historians discovered than revealing anything new. This is American Afrocentric pseudo-history. The Bantu migration dispersal point is considered West Africa between what is now Nigeria and Cameroon, others would place it in the Great Lakes Region, which I think is more plausible. Because we could read, write and do archaeology, EUROPEAN scholars studied the Bantu languages, tabulated their grammars and piece by piece, and put together a reconstructed Proto-Langauge. If anyone has studied learned a Bantu language or two, will know (as do its speakers) how similar they are. Sound shift within languages as they split is consistent more or less as one moves from north to south or other directions. It was postulated that Proto-Bantu, not only had a class prefix, but also a Preprefix. This is why the pronominal concord is sometimes different from the class prefix. It was discovered in Gishu (Lumsaba) a language that still retains the preprefix along with the class prefix. It is also noticed in The Interlauctrien bantu languages and Nguni group of languages; where it is reduced to an initial vowel. Ba-ba-ntu People in Gishu is A-Ba-ntu in Nguni (Zulu, Xhosa, Swati etc). In Swahili, B changes to a W and we get Wa-tu in Kikuyu, W is elided and a d to t transition takes place and we get Mu- ndu and A-ndu. Ntu denotes a living being, or as Louis Leaky, a white Kenyan, who spoke Kikuyu fluently and documented the people he lived with - possesses a higher level of spirit as opposed to animals or trees which are of lesser spirit. I will use Swahili as an example, The root Tu means THING Place in Class 1 we get M-tu, a living thing. place in Class 2 we get the plural W-atu, A non-living thing (a concrete object) we place in Class 7 Ki-tu, place it in Class 8 we get the plural Vi-tu, or things. Place and location in most languages use the root to so a PLACE THING, replaced in Swahili with Mahali, an Arabic Loan. Other languages use Mu an inside place, Pa and nearby place and Ku a less defined place. The concords are still used with Mahali and demonstrations of place still abide by the 3 aspects of place. Afro-essentric seem to think we tried to make up their history, something that would not have been tolerated in academic circles as separate scholars would be striving and in competition to produce accurate results. Her timeline is a few thousand years out too, little even can be related to the folklore of the Nilotic or Bantu peoples.
I am Proto-Bantu NOT American, you already lack critical analysis skills when you failed to discern that fact.
We don't need you telling our history and explaining our language which you know nothing.
You wrote a whole lot of nonsense I didn't bother to read, keep it to yourself next time.
Don't lie
Yes, i am in support of this theory. IBN Battuta the first Marco Polo makes note of muslim caliphates as far as Northern Mozambique. But i dont agree with the "races" narrative.
Thanks for watching. And your comment is why history should be told by women too. Africans also have beauty standards and these are older than Europe or Arabs. Some people especially the ones who felt beautiful wanted to preserve their ethno features but others who didn't feel beautiful are the ones who push the mixing.
And they did, sometimes forcefully.
Beautiful African women were deliberately targeted and bred often by the ‘faces only a mother could love’.
These ‘faces’ knew where to find these beautiful women because before this influx, people had distinct ethno features which had implications, which are still present and how we can tell someone’s heritage.
We need to and are going to talk about it, the abductions and assaults, which pivots into why some people experience trauma from their Grandmothers, who don’t show them love.
Oftentimes, this is because one of their ancestors was abducted, r#ped, and bred, so she had trauma and loathed the children. African History and it's implications needs visibility.
@@inyenyenzi There is a book by Isabel Wilkerson - Caste. It is food for thought.
I don't disagree with your response.
One needs to be careful with history. We (humans) have developed this modern infatuation with skin color and race. I believe that we need to practice caution when presenting this modern phenomena as a means to explain historical events. Statements such as, 'the preservation of ethnicity' and matters dealing with mixing for the sake of 'beauty' are fallacious at best. This matter came into fruition through European colonialism.
This is half way through the story.. this was after the fact, like you said Christianity was already establishing in Africa so what happened before? How and who brought Christianity? Who where the west Africans you speak of what is their history before the Islamic invasion? You need to go further back you are telling to the story from the middle of the book. Appreciate your video though it has some helpful information to help piece our collective African story together, it’s still a part of the story but not all. Blessings
Thanks for watching and your comment.
It is indeed a long history and this video is simply meant to identify and summarize the divergence that led to the state of Africa recorded by the Portuguese in the 1500s - because that’s where conventional African history unfortunately begins which results in a loss of context and history.
I am still going back in time and following the gold.
So since Tunisia, Senegal and Roman-Occupied Egypt were the earliest sultanates, and we know sultanates established in Africa were built on top of invaded gold-rich civilizations we have a reference point to keep piecing it all together especially West Africa.
video is anti islamic
I agree. Starting from the era of Christianity in Africa is still shallow. By then, I presume, most Africans had settled in their somewhat current locations with established kingdoms and chiefdoms.
PLEASE REFER TO GENETICS.
Genetic studies on Africans are under-sampled but sure she cold use it to corroborate her narrative

It's not like you will read them and you won't like the language they use to describe you. I have read through some really bad stuff your self-esteem wouldn't withstand to tolerate your ignorant comment. Verify the events in the years I presented. They just needed to be put together in a chronology, by someone who still understood their culture and adjacent cultures and spoke their language.
