This is patently false. The Saharan desert was like 10% the size back then as it is today. Much of that region was a plush wet forest back then including the center of KMT as the Sphinx has been shown to have water erosion marks on it potentially dating it back to 10,000bc. Ancient (dynastic) Egypt is much older than most people think, and even before them ancient Nubia was a powerhouse.Like I posted earlier, there's the second largest desert in the world blocking them from traversing from east to west and I never stated they didn't travel.
Comparing modern-day societal travels to those 5,000+ years ago is why you're having difficulties.

GSR said:Now I know you don't know what your talking. You're just rehashing stuff written in a few books.
GSR said:On another note I do agree that ancient Egypt is far from the only thing that makes black people/history great. There were countless other advanced civilization all over the continent.....sheeeeiiit not even 3 years ago they discovered ancient mounds that literally stretch all over the continent easy to west north to south dated to be at least 100,000 years old. Africans were transcending the entire continent before KMT was even thought of. There were ancient advanced civilizations that literally left no evidence behind whatsoever but we know about thru other means....
Canadadry said:The Sahara wasn't as dry back then. It was a lot more fertile and green.
Yeah, back after the last Ice Age. Approximately 10,000 BCE. By 5,000 BCE, the Sahara completely dominated North Africa. Egypt's Old Kingdom civilization didn't begin until 3,000 BCE with the unification of Upper and Lower Egypt.
Yep, this one in particular......
.....while those opposing me are using the work of Godfrey Higgins and Gerald Massey, or, those using their work as a starting point.
Humanity started in Africa so it is only common-sense that they traversed most the continent prior to leaving. This is the theory created by Cheikh Anta Diop and supported by mountains of evidence. The only people suggesting otherwise are motivated by racism.

I'll have to check that book out but considering it's from Cambridge (UK) don't know how much trust I can put in it.
GSR said:And there's no proof that KMT only started in 3000bc. Pre dynastic lower KMT could have been much older, anywhere from 4500bc to 10,000 bc
GSR said:And I always give a side eye to anyone who speaks on this shyt as if they know or what they're saying is indisputable. Fact is modern archeologists don't know for a fact. All we have is evidence which also requires proper interpretation of the evidence and the vast majority of archeologists have shytty interpretation.
Facts. People dikkride Egypt because white people dikkride Egypt. People ignore other African societies because white people ignore them.

You're referring to after the last Ice Age (~10,000 BCE), but, as I stated earlier, the Sahara dominated North Africa by 5,000 BCE........about 2,000 years before Egyptian civilization began.
Canadadry said:And even then humans today still cross the current dry Sahara so either way Africans where spreading around the continent. There are various tribes that cross the Sahara.
Some mande's speaking tribes claim to have originated from Egypt. Specifically the Dogon. The article states that at the dawn of Egyptian civilization the Sahara started to dry. Egyptian Civilization was an extension of Nubia which predates Egypt. So them crossing west within that span of time is not farfetched. They have also recently also found pyramid mounds in Niger.Article doesn't refute anything I stated and no one is disputing that there were people traveling the continent, but they weren't Egyptians, they were Mandé people from Central Africa and Berbers.
The people who built the pyramids stayed in Northeast Africa and didn't head west due to the Sahara.

Canadadry said:Also Ancient Libya was just NorthWest and there were a number of Libyan Pharaohs and a period of Libyan Rule in Egypt. So to say they didn't go west is not accurate.
You assume they didn't go west based off of what you have previously learned. You can't say this as fact, and this is my problem with you, you act like these are concrete facts, when they aren't.Those accounts are unreliable and are more recent than the height of Egyptian civilization.
All of which is East Africa and them crossing the Sahara is farfetched since the Old Kingdom didn't start till about 3,100 BCE.........2,000 years after the Sahara dried up. The construction of pyramids isn't due to Egyptian influence, it's just a matter of convention and practicality. Pyramids are the most stable structures of any significant height.
Libyan Pharaohs didn't come into power until the 9th Century BCE........2,000 years after Pre-dynastic Egypt. Libyans are descendants of Berbers and Phoenicians, not Egyptians.
Egyptians didn't go west until Alexander the Great and Ptolemy came to power in the 3rd/4th Century BCE.
