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.

I have no idea why history of africa is so overlooked. It's a crossroads between indigenous Africa, Europe and Asia and has so many interesting stories. Instead we get weird propaganda like Woman King or we have afrocentrists appropriating ancient Egypt. C'mon the actual history is so much more interesting.

Remember the Caucuas and Arya's albinoid were brought to know by the prisms of African knowledge systems, and their theory of them being first is illiterate, science shows that light exists because of the black melanins internal interaction, meaning when combustion or nuclear fission happens the elements exude light. Therefore since this is a system universal code, everything is in procession of that universal code or array of cosmic arrangements

I wouldn't really consider Ottoman Empire as an colonizer in Africa. They held the title of Caliph and all the Muslims in Northern Africa had the same legal rights as all the other Muslims within the empire. Most of the time especially Egypt was ruled by local Mamluk elite that was present before Ottomans came. Tunisia and Algeria were more like vassals rather than official subjects so their relations were more like Ottomans offering protection with their army and Barbary coast nations paying tribute in return. granted Ottomans were still an Empire so obviously Ruling Turkish and Devshirme elite in Constantinople were higher in status and didn't really see themselves equals with them, they couldn't enslave or mistreat any Muslims in many way westerners did in Africa. Such things were forbidden by Islamic laws.

Indeed, very prosperous slave traders kings along the coasts selling those of their war prisoners that were not to be sacrified to the local gods to eastern arab traders or western european traders. Good business indeed.

Lol the entire comment section pretending to ignore the fact that the Europeans and especially the Spanish and Portuguese learnt everything worth knowing about the brutal genocidal invasion subjugation enslavement oppression murder robbery rape and tyrannical colonialism game by eight centuries plus first hand comprehensive lessons from Africans before they were eventually strong enough to forcibly evict them from their continent and then burn the slave raiding predatory pirate oppressors in their own nests eh?🙄..maybe we should make a graph showing the f around to find out ratio involved in that eh 👍 what a cocoincidence that the worst and most pitiless European colonies were the Spanish and Portuguese 😉😵
