Hey everyone, just a quick video reading off an interesting article on the subject of how Medieval Africans handled Pandemics (though the article says "Ancient Africans" a bunch, medieval is much more appropriate), so that I can meet my 2020 New Year's Resolution of posting 9 videos before 2021! Apologies for my struggles pronouncing some of the words in this article, you wouldn't believe how many tries it took to get some of them even close to right lmao.

Pretty cool how Mideval Zimbabwe used burnings, social distancing, and eat specific fruits/roots to all help combat pandemics. Makes me want to find out how other medieval states did the same.

Yeah, it's interesting!

A video about the whole timeline of Nubia would be nice, given how underrated the civilisation is actually is.

@SomasAcademy 3 года назад

That might be an interesting thing to cover, I'll put it on my list. Thanks for the suggestion!

Nubia gets more shine than anything else in Africa South of the Sahara. Its funny how the people who want to talk more about east africa are descendants of West Africans over here in the Americas.

People have to stop calling everything pre-19th century african "ancient". Cool video.

@SomasAcademy 3 года назад

Yeah, part of me wanted to slot in "medieval" while reading out the article lmao And thanks

Wonderful video to fill my vacancy of knowledge on Africa!

@SomasAcademy 10 месяцев назад

Thanks! I have two more videos on West African history if you're interested, one on the Kingdom of Benin and the other on the Empire of Wagadu.

Thank you! If you'd like to see some more African history from me, I recently released a video on the Wagadu Empire.

If only EVER REPUBLICAN was strapped down and forced to watch this video, then they might take covid seriously and wear there masks correctly or in the case of Florida ( because its always Florida) wearing masks at all.
