You don't know semitic languages. Ilah or Allah don't mean divinity, but Adoration, Dedication toward Him. You confuse translation with meaning of words. About Africa origin, you must first look for the original Phones : it is Afrika or Afriqa ? Q vs K which are not same origin and meaning. In Semitic, root FRQ means Distinction, separated, put apart side by side. The A of Africa, is it a A'in or a simple A ? See ? it's not so easy to identify an old word.

@@breezyb2379 I don't talk about translation, but etymology. Try to get the main point : identify the PHONES in Africa. Read my first com again. It seems that the strong root in AFRICA is etyma FR, and the F is the archetyp of the Gap, the Distance, so FR by itself means a strong gap. This is etymology, and morphosemantic.

​@@victoremman4639 It's fascinating to see such a deep dive into the etymology of 'Africa'. While a phonetic and root-based analysis is undoubtedly valuable, it's essential to remember that etymology is a multidisciplinary field. Reducing a word's history to mere phonetics oversimplifies a complex interplay of cultural, historical, and geographical factors. The concept of 'archetype' as applied to the letter 'F' is intriguing, though it requires further elaboration to understand its relevance to the word's overall meaning. While the Semitic root 'FRQ' might offer clues, it's crucial to consider the word within its broader linguistic and historical context. Ultimately, etymology is about tracing the evolution of a word, not just dissecting its components. A holistic approach that considers various influences is essential for a comprehensive understanding. You might be well-versed in linguistic intricacies-no doubt-but the video is addressing the broader evolution of the word 'Africa,' not just focusing on its phonetic components or how one language interprets it. The idea that the root 'FR' signifies a gap or distance is interesting, but etymology also considers how such meanings might shift, merge, or expand as words travel across different civilizations. So while your focus on the granular phonetic elements is valid, it seems like you're missing the bigger picture that the video effectively captured. Etymology is like a complex web where phonetics, semantics, historical shifts, and cultural influences all intersect. The video isn’t ignoring the roots; it’s just looking at the entire tree-roots, branches, leaves, and all-within the environment it grew in.

I’m so glad South Africans are starting to wake up! I’m Xhosa, more specifically Cirha on my dad’s side and Maduna on my mom’s side. I’ve learned that both my mom and dad’s clans have their roots in Khwe tribes. What I learned is that Cirha are half Xhosa and half Khoi. And when I say Xhosa I’m not talking about the nation but the sub-group of the Xhosa nation. My mom’s side which is Maduna actually traces its roots to a !ora Clan known as Matona whom were called ‘Meivolk’ by the Dutch. I’m not surprised by this because my mom is a fair skinned woman, but despite that my dad is the one with strong ‘Khoisan’ features. His eyes and cheekbones which I also have but not as prominent as his.

Arab did bring language in Tanzania but they came and took Bantu language. Those Arab who kicked out on 1963 during Zanzibar revolution. They went oman. Thus why you see or hear some people speak Swahili there. But you can not hear Arab from saudia arabia, Kuwait, Dubai, Lebanon, Egypt, Algeria, Morocco whose speak Arabic language can understand someone speak Swahili. Ask our sisters who went to work as house maid will tell . Swahili was not come from Arabic. Swahili is the corruption of the word "ziwa hili". Ziwa means body of water and hili means here. When few Arab come they asked where are you came from. The reply we are from ziwa hili. Those Arab and white corrupted it and came up the word Swahili. Is the same to mount Kilimanjaro. The real name is kilima kyaro.

I understand scholars talked about bantu migration from the regions of Cameroon to Southern Africa, but I have doubts about that. 1. The tribes in Nigeria and from Cameroon where I came from all say their ancestors came from somewhere else. Other tribes are splinter from amongst a larger group founding villages. 2. I don't know of any, but if anybody knows, please do enlighten me of any of our ancestors' bones older than those in Southern Africa dug up from these regions around Cameroon? Sometimes, foreign researches form their own opinions to fit their narratives and not listen to the natives. They dismiss oral history as not reliable without taking a second look as to what the natives are saying.

It is the language which spread out from the Cameroon/Nigeria border region, but Bantu-speaking people came from all over. Bantu-languages in southern Africa, for instance, contain many Khoi and San words. They also contain Cushitic/Nilotic words, particularly relating to animal husbandry and pastoralism, which supports the theory that the Bantu speakers were Iron Age farmers, but only became cattle, goat and sheep herders when they migrated east and encountered the pastoralists peoples, on whom they impressed their Bantu languages. My DNA population test links me in the male line to East Africa, with a tiny connection to the Yoruba, Mende and other West African people. Possible male ancestors include Pharaoh Ramsese III, and a man who lived in Ethiopia around 3450 BC. Given that e1b1a2b2 (v2403) is one of the most widespread haplogroups in southern Africa, I'd say our physical origins are predominantly in East Africa, but the languages we speak are from that Mambila region in Nigeria/Cameroon. It is in the Great Lakes region that we began to form ethnic groups and a culture that we would recognise as related to us.

There is no language phylum called 'Niger-Congo'. African scholars must develop Africa's research without referrence to Euro-American academics on Africa. Bantu language originate in North-East Africa (west Sudan/southern Libya). Niger-Volta is a language of Western Sahara and were part of Kiffian Culture. Mande of North-West Africa is not related to Niger-Volta. Since Mande, and Bantu are not related to Niger-Volta; there is no Niger-Congo phylum.

The historical record shows that everyone spread out from Mesopotamia. Ancient history is essential for everyone to know, especially the sixteen original civilizations… from the sixteen grandsons of Noah. It’s necessary to learn ancient history before trying to learn science. 1. The first inhabitants of Italy (K) Tubal 2. Thracians (L) Tiras 3. Siberians (N) Meshek 4. East Asians (O) Magog 5. Medes (PQ) Madai 6.. Western Europeans (R) Gomer 7. Mediterranean Greek sea people (T) Javan 8. Hebrews and Arabic (IJ) Arphaxad 9. Elamites (H) Elam 10. Assyrians (G) Asshur 11. Arameans (F1) Aram 12. Lydians (F2) Lud 13. Cushites (AB, C) Cush 14. Egyptians (E3) Mitzrayim 15. Canaanites (E2, D) Canaan 16. Original North African Phoenicians (E1) Phut The D haplogroup descendants of Canaan migrated east through Tibet all the way to Japan. The C haplogroup descendants of Nimrod migrated to South Asia, the Pacific, Mongolia, Australia and all the way to the Americas along with Q haplogroup descendants of Madai ancestor of the Medes. The A maternal mtDNA haplogroup belonging to the N lineage accompanied the Q paternal haplogroup in the Americas. The C&D maternal haplogroups belong to the M lineage. The B maternal haplogroup seems to have crossed the Pacific Ocean. The Mediterranean paternal R1b and the maternal X2a also found in Galilee represent an Atlantic crossing of the Phoenicians in the days of King Solomon considering also the Mediterranean paternal haplogroups of T, G, I1, I2, J1, J2, E and B in addition to the R1b in Native American Populations. J1 and J2 is Arabs and Jews. (I1 is Dan, I2 is Asher) Of course there is the Cohen modal haplotype of J1 P58 which identifies the IJ lineage of Hebrews and Arabs that are descended from Arphaxad. J2 M172 is the descendants of the House of David and Solomon. I have some more historical evidence and some new genetic evidence that no one can arguing with. The Q paternal haplogroup is the descendants of the Medes. Madai ancestor of the Medes asked to marry the daughter of Shem so the Semitic A maternal haplogroup followed the Q haplogroup to America while the X and W mtDNA followed the Medes into Europe. The Semitic B maternal haplogroup most likely arrived in America by crossing the Pacific Ocean. The C and D maternal haplogroups are Eurasian. The Semitic X2a maternal haplogroup is a European branch from the Semitic A maternal haplogroup which probably arrived in America with the R1b paternal haplogroup in the days of the Phoenicians mining the ancient copper mines of the Great Lakes. The big elephant in the room is the R1b in America as well as the X mtDNA. Besides the R1b there is also E B I1 I2 J1 J2 G and T Mediterranean paternal haplogroups as well as the X2a maternal haplogroup in America *AND* Galilee as well as the Q paternal hg which also make up the signature of the Phoenicians and Jews in the days of King Solomon and today. The C paternal haplogroup is the descendants of Nimrod the first and Hamitic king of Mesopotamia along with his sons who became the House of Nimrod. Their descendants went as far as the Americas. It’s the reason that the Olmecs C3 y-hg appear similar to Polynesians C2 y-hg since they share the same common ancestor, Nimrod the son of Cush the father of Cushite Africans. The C3 haplogroup of Nimrod is still there in the Americas such as the Kechuas Wayuu and Waorani …and now you know the rest of the story.

Hi @JungleJargon, a definite thanks for taking the time to comment on our channels content! Appreciated. The Bible is certainly one source of information about ancient history, and there are some interesting connections you've drawn between genetics and biblical figures. Our video focused on the latest archaeological and paleoanthropological evidence for human migration, which paints a more complex picture with origins likely in Africa as compared to religious text. Genetic research is a powerful tool, but it's still evolving, and interpretations can vary. We'd love to hear more about the "new genetic evidence" you mentioned if you're willing to share. While genetic studies like haplogroups offer valuable pieces of the puzzle, the story of human migration is complex and involves multiple lines of evidence, including fossils, tools, and cultural artifacts. Perhaps in a future video, we can delve deeper into how different perspectives, like biblical narratives and scientific findings, can inform our understanding of the past. The history of religion in Africa is complex, marked by periods of colonialism and missionary activities that often intertwined with oppressive practices. This included cultural erasure, suppression of indigenous knowledge, and a legacy of inequality. While religion can be a source of comfort and community, it's crucial to acknowledge its historical role in contributing to oppression and the ongoing struggles faced by many African communities. Your insights prompt us to delve deeper into these interconnected narratives in future discussions. It's worth noting that Mesopotamia indeed had geographical advantages for early agricultural and pastoral developments (not ignoring - extensive use of technology, literature, legal codes, philosophy, religion, and architecture in these societies), contributing significantly to the rise of a documented ancient civilization (Key being- Sumerian, Babylon, Assyrian and Akkadian). Northern Africa, particularly Egypt, also played a pivotal role in ancient civilizations, thanks to its proximity to the cradle of early economies and the Nile Valley's fertile lands (not forgetting - monumental achievements of the ancient Egyptians in areas like architecture, engineering, medicine, and governance). However, Sub-Saharan Africa faced geographical challenges, such as the Sahara and Kalahari, which limited early agricultural expansion and development compared to other regions (By the way - more content coming up on migration Theories). This geographic barrier impacted the timing of societal developments, leading to what some describe as being 'late to the party' in terms of complex social structures. The concept of "being late to the party" is a complex one. While Sub-Saharan civilizations may have developed complex social structures later than those in Mesopotamia, their unique cultural and technological advancements shouldn't be diminished and as this channel we are striving to show that Southern Africa seeded such civilizations. The empires you mentioned - Ashanti, Dahomey, Mali, Great Zimbabwe, and Kongo - all represent remarkable achievements in governance, trade, and societal organization. As you raise a thought-provoking point about the Semitic X2a haplogroup and potential Phoenician connections to the ancient copper mines of Great Lakes region. Regarding Africa's history, particularly Southern Africa, it's crucial to acknowledge the depth and richness of indigenous knowledge that predates many external narratives. The Zulus' awareness of copper, for instance, termed "u'Thusi" in their language, reflects a long-standing cultural and technological heritage. Archaeological evidence suggests copper use in Southern Africa dates back thousands of years, indicating this knowledge wasn't a recent development. Rather, it was a cornerstone of societal advancements, contributing to the development of sophisticated metalworking techniques. Further to this, Archaeological finds like the Mapungubwe civilization in South Africa demonstrate sophisticated metalworking and cultural development in Southern Africa long before any other outside 'continental' contact. While the historical narrative you've presented is fascinating, it's important to approach genetic studies with caution and a critical eye. Genetics can indeed provide valuable insights into human migration and population movements, but it's crucial to interpret this data within the broader context of archaeological, linguistic, and cultural evidence. Genetic and archaeological evidence suggests a more complex picture of human migration patterns, with multiple waves of movement across continents. While haplogroups like those you mentioned (Q, R1b, C) can provide some clues about ancestry, they don't paint the whole picture. Many populations have mixed ancestries, reflecting the interconnectedness of human history. Genetic markers can be influenced by factors like genetic drift, population bottlenecks, and admixture, which can complicate straightforward interpretations. While the Bible offers a unique perspective, scientific evidence paints a more complex picture of human migration. Genetic studies reveal deep ancestry in Southern Africa, with maternal haplogroups like L0 and L1 concentrated in the region. These findings align with the rich oral histories and cultural practices of indigenous communities, fostering a comprehensive understanding of the region's past. Archaeology further strengthens this story. Discoveries like the Blombos Cave artifacts and San rock art showcase a long history of human occupation and cultural complexity in Southern Africa. Genetic studies complement these findings by tracing migration patterns, highlighting Southern Africa as a crucial region for human evolution and dispersal. Southern Africa's genetic story is far from simple. The presence of diverse haplogroups, including Y-chromosomal markers like E-M2 and E-M35 among Bantu speakers, reflects millennia of interaction and intermixing between populations. This underscores the region's remarkable genetic diversity and historical richness. Genetic comparisons with neighboring regions like East Africa or Madagascar reveal shared ancestry and migration routes. This showcases the interconnectedness of African populations and positions Southern Africa as a hub of genetic diversity and cultural exchange. Modern genetic research continues to peel back the layers of complexity. Studies focused on specific populations like the 'Khoisan', Zulu, Xhosa, and Sotho-Tswana offer insights into population structure, past connections, and genetic adaptations within Southern Africa. This ongoing research reinforces the region's significance in our understanding of human history and genetics. Thank you for sharing your thoughts!

@@africaninsights It’s important to note that ancient history really can’t be compared to recent history. Originally it was sixteen families or tribes each with their own territory. As populations increased that’s when certain people began to seek the power that comes with ruling. With ultimate power comes corruption and inequalities. Yet the powerful weren’t always the aggressors so the aggressions had to be put down for the sake of the people trying to live their lives. It is somewhat more complex than some would try to make it. Africa also had huge kingdoms just as corrupt as the others. Eventually everything fell apart but there are still people who seek to control the world. If that ever happens, you can say goodbye to justice and equity or equality. Many people deemed to be a problem will simply be eliminated.

@@JungleJargon You're absolutely right, ancient history is complex and can't be directly compared to recent takes of history. Southern Africa, for example, boasts a rich tapestry of societies that goes far beyond simplistic narratives of power struggles. Early societies in Southern Africa developed sophisticated tools, complex social structures, and impressive artistic traditions. The Blombos Cave ochre artifacts and the San rock art are just a few examples of this ingenuity. Later, the rise of kingdoms like Mapungubwe, Mutapa and Great Zimbabwe showcased the region's capacity for political organization and cultural expression. While conflict and power dynamics were certainly present, Southern African history is also filled with stories of collaboration, trade networks, and cultural exchange. The spread of Bantu languages across the region exemplifies this interconnectedness. Today, Southern Africa continues to be a vibrant and diverse region with rich cultural traditions, resilient communities, and a growing influence on the global stage. From advancements in science and technology to innovative artistic expressions, Southern Africa's contributions are undeniable. We agree that the world is complex and the quest for power can lead to negative consequences. However, focusing solely on conflict overlooks the remarkable stories of human achievement, cooperation, and resilience that are also part of history. By exploring the rich history of Southern Africa, we gain a deeper understanding of humanity's capacity for both good and bad. This knowledge can help us build a more just and equitable future for all.

Wow, super pertinent. Thank you very much. Also have you ever heard about the LUNDA TCHOKWE Calendar, is from this group of people that they say you can find them in the DRC, ANGOLA, ZAMBIA, NAMIBIA, BOTSWANA, TANZANIA AND MOZAMBIQUE please go check. For instance their Month 1 "Kamoxi" is also correspondant to September, similar to Swati, Zulu and Kemet Calendars. Gratitude and Cheers from Angola 🤗

Batho is the real plural noun for people , Bantu is derived from Zulu Abantu since it was easier for whites to pronounce which is a spin off language like in Kalanga is Banthu , in Shona is vhanu & so forth ! If you you move further away from Setswana speaking people the more it becomes something else though you find Setswana words in all of southern African languages including Swahili in central Africa meaning the same things as in Setswana . Tswa in Setswana means to leave or come out of , so when there was a break off after disagreements and a group leaves the main group others would ask where are they going ? Batswa mo go rona, meaning they are leaving us ! Batswana ! Direct translation to English is people that come from one another ! Each they left the main group the language was changed and they called themselves a different name overtime we now have a million languages worldwide ! Salang sente ditsala ! Not Salam malekum 😅😅😅

There's an upcoming episode, whereby our research is driven by the context in Credo Mutwas book, indaba my children, whereby he writes of old 'tribes' who identify themselves with the prefix 'Ba'. Ba-Tswana. There is so much rich history to be uncovered here. Thank you for your wonderful and insightful comment. However, just a heads up, we will put forward that the Ba-Ntu or the Ba-Tu were the founders of our culture and religion. Thus we will indicate that Ba-Tswana are direct offshoots of the great Ba-Ntu nation, we will definitely tag you when the episode is aired, we would greatly appreciate your comment on the research gathered.

5. Colonel WEDGWOOD asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether his attention has been drawn to the proceedings in the mandated area of South-West Africa, which include the bombing of Hottentot villages containing women and children, and of one 'plane dropping from a low altitude no less than 40 bombs and spraying with 2,000 rounds of ammunition a party of 500 Hottentots, involving heavy losses; and whether His Majesty's Government propose to take any steps to put a stop to these proceedings?

@@africaninsights SOUTH AFRICAN NATIVES. HC Deb 15 July 1828 vol 19 cc1693-41693 §Mr. Fowell Buxton rose to move, that an Address be presented to His Majesty representing, "That this House has observed with great satisfaction, that the original Natives of South Africa have always been recognized by the British government as a free people, having a lawful abode in the Colony; and that the British government has promised to protect their persons, property, and possessions, the same as those of other free people:-That this House humbly solicits His Majesty to cause such instructions to be sent to the Colony of the Cape of Good Hope, as shall most effectually secure to all the Natives of South Africa, the same freedom and protection as are enjoyed by other free people of that Colony, 1694whether English or Dutch:-That this House further humbly requests His Majesty to order Copies of Extracts of the Special Reports of the Commissioners at the Cape of Good Hope, relative to the condition of the Hottentots and Bushmen; together with the Papers given in to the Commissioners by Dr. Philip, and the Memorials addressed to the Colonial Office by the Directors of the London Missionary Society, to be laid before this House." He had intended to have entered into the details of the grievances to which the Hottentots were exposed, at the hands of their Christian neighbours; but he abstained from this course, as the Secretary of State for the Colonies, did not intend to oppose his motion. He should merely observe, that although the Hottentots were perfectly free by law, they were treated entirely as slaves. Lord Caledon, when governor of the Cape, had declared them to be, in every respect, a free people, and had directed that they should be so treated. Another governor, when applied to by the colonists to compel the Hottentots to forced services, had replied, that "they had no more right to compel the Hottentots to serve the settlers, than the Hottentots had to compel the settlers to serve them." Something ought to be done without delay, to remedy the treatment under, which these people were suffering. He referred gentlemen who wished to be acquainted with the subject, to Dr. Philip's Researches in Southern Africa;" a work which contained more information on the subject, than any book he had ever read.
