I have always assumed that the fulbe or fula (fulani) people are from in and around current Mali. I know that they are not originally from Nigeria. But they did a lot of migrating; so it is hard to tell where they are originally from.

One of the groups that surprised me about their origins were the Tikar people. The Tikar people (Bamoun and Bamilike) are grassland people that are currently in Cameroon near the Nigeria border. No one knows exactly when the Tikar arrived in their current location or even where they originally came from, but it is clear that during the transatlantic slave trade they were forced South by the religious Jihads of the Fulani (and Hausa) people; but by moving South they were being pinched by slave traders that transported them to the Douala ports in Cameroon. The Tikar people as it turns out are from the ancient Kingdom of Kush which is modern day Sudan. It appears that the Fulani may have originally been from the Sudan too.

It also exist among the Akan as the God Nyame (Nzambi in Kikongo and ciLuba). Here is the symbol of (Gye) Nyame (< mAa.t). Notice a pattern here? I should note that Amma, Nyame, Maat, Nzambi, etc., all derive from a word meaning "hand." The image below is also an abstract closed hand. In Egyptian we have jmm "grip, grasp" (Vygus); Am "to seize, to grip" (Budge 6a). Remember in Egyptian that /jmn.t/ or /wnmj/ means "right hand" and is used to mean "The West." The hand is used to "build, create, arrange, put in order, regulate, turn, spin, coil, fold, stack, etc." In N-E, the "foot, leg" and "arm, hand" have the same etymology

I'm feeling generous. To show you guys what I mean when I argue that the spiral/coil/spin in African tradition means "order, stability" (<mAa.t) here is an example of what I mean using the snake as a symbol of that ordering process.

Chukwunyere Kamalu—Person, Divinity, & Nature: A Modern View of the Person & the Cosmos in African Thought (1998)—on the Fon (Benin, W.Africa)

In the beginning was Nana Buluku (an androgynous being) out of whom came the female-male pair, Mawu-Lisa. The union of these twins is the basis of the organization of the universe. The creator or demiurge, Mawu-Lisa, two beings in one, is assisted by a semi-personal power named Da, who acts “at once as instrument and conscious assistant in the work of ordering the world. Da, like Maw-Lisa contains both male and female principles. This organizing power, this force of life and motion, is sometimes described as the first created being . . .” Da has many incarnations, one of which is the serpent, Da Ayido Hwedo who, whilst submerged in the ocean of primeval waters, coiled around the unformed earth to hold it together. The vastness of this ocean signified Da’s greatness. Da is thus the continued sustainer of the order and stability of the universe. Whilst coiled around the earth, Da is not still but continually moving in a spiral motion. This motion was also identified with water, which is part of Da’s essential being and caused the cosmos to be set into rotation. Da was believed to have set up four iron pillars to support the sky at the four ends of the earth: hence keeping the sky and the waters below separated. These pillars coincide with the four cardinal points, north, east, south, and west. This is succeeded by the springing forth from Da, of the gods (vodu), who represent the different forces that act upon human beings. (Kamalu, 1998: 126-127)

the Greeks stole this idea and turned it into the Caduecus,it twas said that the esteemed Hermes Trismegistus carried a staff of one as well...

So many stories out of Africa. Makes you realize that there was a different world outside of today where such things happened. Also makes me think that since we're in the Age of Aquarius, some stranger than fiction truths will keep coming out.

I remember reading about this tribe in west Africa that came from panthers, and they had a queen who had they eye color of a panther. Thought it was cool how she and her people went to war with the French. In the end, she turned into a damn panther. That's some really eppic shyt to me.

There is something i notice in regards to the language. In due time i'll come back and edit this post.

Cacs trying to write off their knowledge


I still stand by our history being so deep, and connected to something higher that it is the root behind cacs hating us so bad. Cacs have no history of being connected to higher intelligence....their top folks were educated by africans


Humans today can't build the Egyptian pyramids w/ the deep math/science behind it. Magnificence history that'll never truly be told. It's purposely suppressed, and it's why it pains me so much that so many of us are programmed to think you're inferior to these swines ....fukk no ....we're superior in intelligence, but we still carry that attitude of wanting to help others which bit a lot of Africans before us in the ass ....we still carry it, but it's hurting us more and more.

Was just watching some recent videos on the Dogon and they claim they are ALIENS!

Their story is that they WALKED to Earth from another galaxy(Sirius B) via a zipping light,

For some strange reason I BELIEVE this.

The Dogon themselves say this? When I hear orgin stories from people of the "old world" I tend to just take it as being allegory to some actual event that may have happened.

Yes they actually say this. The Dogon people.

Peace don't know how much you know in regards to Budge. However,

He justifies it in his work. And any of the "Budge" renderings in the book can be backed up by more "modern" dictionaries. Anyone who has looked at Budges renderings and have studied African Languages have ALL come to the conclusion that Many of the so-called critiques of Budge are unwarranted and unjustifiable. I have found his interpretation to be spot on with African Languages. He is mainly criticized believed the Egyptian language and his people were African and not related to Semitic.

 

[EndDomination]

Fairly interesting.
Aside from the weird pseudo-science and astronomy nonsense; what are they up to now? How is their culture and language preservation while Mali is urbanizing? Have their been movements to end FGM? Have they avoided economic exploitation?
