AFRICANS VISITED AMERICA 2000 YEARS BEFORE COLUMBUS , 11 UNDENIABLE PROOFS ; Black History.
11 Reasons Tp Prove That Africans Were in America 2000 years Before Colombus.
Let me take you on a journey through some of these fascinating pieces of evidence of African presence in America 2000 years before Columbus. Take them with a grain of salt if you have to, but I think they are worth some consideration.
1. Olmec Heads: The colossal stone heads created by the Olmec civilization in present-day Mexico, which date back to 1500 BCE to 400 BCE, feature distinctly African facial features. These heads feature facial features such as broad noses, full lips, and round faces that clearly resemble those of Africans more than the indigenous populations of the Americas. Tell me this is not a black man right there. The detailed and realistic nature of the Olmec heads suggests they were based on real individuals. It is no wonder not surprising that some researchers contend that these features indicate an African presence in pre-Columbian America.
2. African Artifacts in the Americas: Artifacts such as cotton from Africa and tobacco pipes found in pre-Columbian sites in South America have led some to speculate about transatlantic contact. In addition, metal artefacts with similar metallurgical techniques to those used in West Africa have been found in pre-Columbian American sites.

Before the next point kindly give us a like. I know to you it’s a simple click, but to us it means a lot.
3. Botanical Evidence: Certain plants like the bottle gourd and the sweet potato are thought to have originated in Africa and Asia but were present in pre-Columbian America, suggesting possible ancient transoceanic contact.
4. Linguistic Evidence: Some linguists claim to have found similarities between certain Native American languages and African languages. Some proponents argue that there are similarities between ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs and symbols found in Mesoamerican writing systems, such as those of the Maya. The Mandinka word “makala,” meaning “rice,” is compared to the similar-sounding words in some Native American languages.
Dr. Clyde Winters points to shared vocabulary and phonetic similarities, such as the word “yu” in Mandinka meaning “to give” and a similar-sounding word in the Olmec language with the same meaning.
Leo Wiener, in his early 20th-century work “Africa and the Discovery of America,” cited examples such as the Wolof word “tem” (to cut) and its similarity to the Algonquian word “temagun” (an axe).
5. THOR HEYERDAHL’S RAFT EXPERIMENTS: The Norwegian explorer Thor Heyerdahl demonstrated with his expeditions (Kon-Tiki and Ra) that it was possible to travel across the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans using ancient boat-building techniques, suggesting that such voyages could have occurred in ancient times.
6. Ancient Maps: Some historical maps, such as the Piri Reis map, allegedly show parts of the American continent with a level of detail suggesting pre-Columbian exploration, potentially by African or other non-European civilizations.
7. Skull Analysis: Studies of certain skeletal remains, such as the Luzia Woman found in Brazil, have shown features that some anthropologists argue resemble those of African or Australoid populations rather than Native American populations.
8. Accounts from Early European Explorers: Some early European explorers, such as Vasco Núñez de Balboa, reported encountering dark-skinned peoples in the Americas upon their arrival.
9. Cultural Similarities: Some researchers point to cultural parallels between African and American civilizations, such as pyramid building, similar religious practices, and iconography, as potential evidence of contact.
10. Presence of Black peoples in Asia, Australia and the Pacific. If Black people can be found in as far as the Philippines, Papua New Guinea, Malaysia many Islands in the Pacific, why can’t they be found in the Americas? I mean it makes no sense for the Americas to be the exception right?
11. Genetic Studies: While controversial and not universally accepted, some genetic studies have indicated the presence of haplogroups in Native American populations that are also found in African populations, suggesting ancient intermingling.

The conquest of Sicily was a religious war as Normans wanted to drive out muslims! The motivations of the conquest of England were different!

@gasenjoyer…4594 Normans have been crushed easily in Spain by a well organized moor army https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viking_raid_on_Seville you can see that Normans were brave only when opposed to isolated villages or unorganized populations

Hi! I'm here today because of the massive/catastrophic incident that has. again, occurred in Israel. As The World draws lines in the Biblical Sand with their respective Allied and Enemy Swords alike, My Junior High School Fear (once again) has surfaced that this upcoming Battle (of Religion & Territory) in the Middle East may just devour us all into hell. Great time for a second coming of you know who, would you agree?

The first Norman king of Sicily, Robert Guiscard, was a cousin of William the Conqueror, the first Norman king of England. However, by the time of the Norman Conquest of England in 1066, Robert Guiscard was still only a minor count in Normandy. He did not become Duke of Apulia and Calabria until 1071, and he did not conquer Sicily until 1072.
Despite their distant blood relationship, the Norman Kingdoms of Sicily and England did have some special bonds with each other. They were both ruled by Norman dynasties, and they both shared a common culture and language. They also had a common interest in maintaining control of the Mediterranean Sea.
There were several intermarriages between the Norman royal families of Sicily and England. For example, in 1176, King William II of Sicily married Joan, the daughter of King Henry II of England. This marriage helped to strengthen the ties between the two kingdoms.
The Norman Kingdoms of Sicily and England also cooperated on military and diplomatic matters. For example, in 1173, King William II of Sicily sent a fleet to help King Henry II of England put down a rebellion in Ireland.
In conclusion, the Norman Kingdoms of Sicily and England were related by blood, and they had some special bonds with each other
