Ethiopia and the Origin of Civilization

FACES IN ETHIOPIA

ETHIOPIA AND THE ORIGIN OF CIVILIZATIONS

A Critical Review of the Evidence of Archaeology, Anthropology, History and Comparative Religion: According to the Most Reliable Sources and Authorities By John G. Jackson (1939) "It is pretty well settled that the city is the Negro's great contribution to civilization, for it was in Africa where the first cities grew up." E. Haldeman-Julius "Those piles of ruins which you see in that narrow valley watered by the Nile, are the remains of opulent cities, the pride of the ancient kingdom of Ethiopia. … There a people, now forgotten, discovered while others were yet barbarians, the elements of the arts and sciences. A race of men now rejected from society for their sable skin and frizzled hair, founded on the study of the laws of nature, those civil and religious systems which still govern the universe." Count Volney "The accident of the predominance of white men in modern times should not give us supercilious ideas about color or persuade us to listen to superficial theories about the innate superiority of the white-skinned man. Four thousand years ago, when civilization was already one or two thousand years old, white men were just a bunch of semi-savages on the outskirts of the civilized world. If there had been anthropologists in Crete, Egypt, and Babylonia, they would have pronounced the white race obviously inferior, and might have discoursed learnedly on the superior germ-plasm or glands of colored folk."

CIVILIZATIONS OF ETHIOPIA

THE ETHIOPIAN'S FAMILY

Africa is a continent which does not really matter for many people, this continent has a very important history but the world has been evading it for many centuries. In schools teachers teach just American, European, and Asian history, as result the humanity knows just a few things about Africa like it’s a poor country, like Africa was the slave’s continent and things like that, but have we asked ourselves about the true African history? Although people think that african history is just poor people, Africa is our life history. There is a family in this continent which has very rich culture its Ethiopian family
Ethiopian family is a very old family because it has history from the dynasty of Salomon. this family is a black family. It is in the only continent which has black pure people (original black people). The first family in the world was a black family therefore the white people are descendants of black p people, and if the first family was black then it has to be an African family, that’s why probably god (Jesus) was a black man. It’s important to know about Ethiopian families because they are the cradle of humanity,
The African family is called amhara, old people are very respected, women and men have the same rights, They don’t eat pig neither turkey. They eat white meats. Days there don’t start as here in the midnight, it starts when the sun appears, The chrismas is not at the end of the year it’s at 7 of January. Their ritual more important is called Fasika. The New Year is when the rain is over, these things are their culture.
Unquestionably Ethiopian family is our mother family, its proved that a black man or black woman can have white or black children but a white man and white woman can’t have black children, just white children consequently it stands to reason that the black people are our mother family. Then the black race is even religious and saint race because Jesus was a black man it’s logical because Jesus born in a place where the families were black, it has been hidden for a long time and thus was easier to have black slaves, the black people had to stand racism and injustices because of a lie, it wouldn’t have happened if the Catholic empire didn’t hide that our forbears are black people. It is right now in movies and in images where we can see that they just want to show that the white race is more beautiful than the black one
Finally it’s clear that Ethiopian culture and even more African culture are cultures which we have to learn more about because it’s our history too, these cultures are forgotten by the humanity and maybe as result Africa is now like it is, forgotten. There is missing a lot off information that we have to know about our forbears that we even don’t care about Ethiopian and therefore African cultures.
