    "🌟 Reminder to our viewers: This video uses AI to recreate historical scenes from more than 3000 years ago. We've aimed for accuracy, but a perfect depiction of ancient times using tools like DALL-E or Midjourney has its challenges. DALL-E fought us when mentioning historical figures directly so we had to use “in the style of”. Also, we learned during this project that when depicting scenes with well-known figures, like the Romans, the styles of the other characters take on some of their features. This is why our Kushites have Roman-influenced armor. Ultimately once we understood how complicated this was, we tried our best to create images that looked like they all came from the “same world/time,” and when we could, tried to remove the Roman influence. So, enjoy the video, take the images with a grain of salt, and feel free to explore more to get a fuller picture of history. We appreciate your understanding and engagement! 🕰✨"

      ok, beautiful history. nice recreation of history. But, why many African Americans. Not all, saying that the Inca, Mayan, Aztec Empire. Were black kings. That nothing had to do with Africa. Two continents apart. The first, Empire was Mayan. During the time of Christ. During the time of this history. Then mysteriously the Empire fell. Then Surrounded, with tribes Olmecs and other tribes. Like the Mexica. Later took the name of Mexico. Became the Aztecs. But Mayans pyramids were already there. Aztecs build the same designs. In South America another contemporary, with the Aztecs were the Inca. That stretched northern part of now Ecuador all the way to southern Argentina. But these Empires had nothing to do with Africa.

    Who was Taharqa in the Bible?
    Mainstream scholars agree that Taharqa is the Biblical "Tirhakah" (Heb: תִּרְהָקָה), king of Ethiopia (Kush), who waged war against Sennacherib during the reign of King Hezekiah of Judah (2 Kings 19:9; Isaiah 37:9).

    The early Cushites are descendents of Ham. They were mighty rulers and very innovative.
    The feuds between them forced cush to migrate to upper egypt and asia minor later. They were the naga tribes and their culture spread into iran and northern India. In india they were known as the kushanas. They mixed with local tribes and were known as Dravidians.
    Sudanese and Aethiopians, were known as Abyssinians. Even Iran and northern India were called Aethiopia. Some 2000yrs ago aryans, managed to overpower and subdue the cushites, but it took 1000yrs. The nagas(cushites)
    Were a powerful group.
    The hindu kush was named after this powerful empire.

      @phillblake6829 AI has gotten better over the past 12 months it really started to understand prompts. But yes I knew we couldn't get it perfect that's why we added disclaimers in the description and a pinned comment letting people know to take the images with a grain of salt and explained why some of them look the way they do. The models used for AI Image production have simply not been trained on certain cultures and civilizations because there is nothing to train them from. Obviously, with the Romans, there's tons of media it has been trained on so when mentioning them at any point it tends to interpret non-roman people as roman influenced. It was very frustrating.

    A-Ra-b = means a sun ☀️ worships . Also know as surajj in India.
    Arab were originally from India. Could be 3 thousands years, like you made video about Kush son of Indian emperor Rama about 3 thousands years ago. Rab = Raب is also used in Arabic language Quran as creator. In India language it is Braham.
    Can you understand this ?
    A is added in beginning or end in Middle East or India 🇮🇳,
    Abraham = Brahama, ( Abrahamic )
    Brahama = Abraham ( Brahamaic
    Adam = dam ,
    Allah = the raja Lah son of Rama, ( Islamic) ,
    Languages in Islamic history,
    Aramic = a Ram- ic , is Ram’s language,
    Arabic = a rab ‘s language, also
    Arab- ic =Arab ‘s language.
    Rama and Rab is Indian kings , long ago, as gods / Bhagwan.
    Is- Lah م , worshiper’s of Lah .
    is - ra - el , means children of king Ra ,
    is - ma- el , means children of king Ma .
    Who was king Ra or king Ma , in history?
    Al gor,
    Al Roy,
    Al Lah ,
    Alexander , Al - Skandar, also Quran called same manas Dulqurnan.
    A- ra ب = means worshiper of sun god Ra , ( sun god Ra Wally) ,
    is - Ra - el , tribe of king Ra ,
    Ra is Sun ☀️ god Ra, in many religious stories, even in Hindus as sourajj god / Bhagwan.
    Isa and musa are not name , they are , masa ( brother of Maryam) and Isa is son of Maryam,
    And Maryam was wife of Roman god king Cesar.
    Originally islam is modified by worship of older time gods, like Sun ☀️ worship, Bhagwan ra-ma worship and Rama son lah worship as Al- Lah.
