Nubia Land of the Bow and the Most Famous Archers in the World... “Land of the Bow” is the meaning of Ta-Set...
By Kweku Ofori

Nubian hunters and warriors excelled as archers, and their weapon became a symbol for Nubia. “Land of the Bow” is the meaning of Ta-Seti, an ancient Egyptian term used to denote Nubia for thousands of years in antiquity.
Hunters using bows and arrows appear in Nubian rock art as early as the Neolithic period, and hunting provided subsistence for Nubians throughout much of their history. Some of Nubia’s most important trade products, like animal skins and ivory, came from the hunt. Nubian archers, who formed the core of victorious Nubian armies, were so skilled that they were used as valued members of the military forces of other lands, such as Egypt and Persia.

BAI BUREH (ca. 1840-1908) HERO OF THE 1898 REBELLION.
By Kweku Ofori
Bai Bureh was the great ruler and military strategist who led the Temne uprising against the British in 1898.Bai Bureh.
His father was an important Loko war-chief, and his mother probably a Temne woman from the region around modern Makeni. He was sent as a young man to Gbendembu, a training school for warriors where he earned the nickname "Kebalai", meaning "one whose basket is never full" or "one who never tires of war". Kebalai became a famous war leader in the 1860s and 1870s, serving under a Soso ruler in a long Jihad to establish correct Islamic practices. In 1886, Kebalai was crowned ruler of Kasseh, a small kingdom near Port Loko, and given the royal title of Bai Bureh.

The new ruler soon gained a reputation for stubborn independence that annoyed the British administration in Freetown. On one occasion, Bai Bureh refused to recognise a peace treaty the British had negotiated with the Limba without his participation, and on another occasion, he led warriors on a raid across the border into French Guinea. When the British declared their Protectorate in 1896, they quickly issued a warrant for Bai Bureh's arrest, fearing that he would foment resistance to the new "hut tax". But the British could not capture him, and so began a long war of aggression to which Bai Bureh valiantly responded by organising a large-scale guerilla revolt that lasted for ten months. He brought warriors from several Temne states under his command, as well as some Loko, Soso, and Limba fighters — and he held the initiative over the vastly more powerful British for the first four months. Bai Bureh's forces surprised the British troops time and again, subjecting them to punishing fire from behind concealed war fences, before slipping away unseen into the bush. Bai Bureh acquired a reputation for supernatural power, and was believed to be bullet-proof and to have the ability to become invisible or stay for long periods under water. The British offered a reward of £100 for information leading to Bai Bureh's capture, but no one would come forward — a colonial official wrote that Bai Bureh's men "loved their chief, and remained loyal to him to the very last".

Bai Bureh was finally captured on November 11, 1898 and taken under guard to Freetown, where crowds gathered around his quarters day and night to gain a glimpse of the great man. The British sent Bai Bureh in exile to the Gold Coast (Ghana), but brought him back in 1905, reinstating him as a Chief of Kasseh. Sierra Leone's greatest hero died in 1908.

Ancient Egyptian Pharaohs related to Ugandans - DNA.
By Kweku Ofori

A DNA test of a group of mummies from the Amarna Egyptian Pharaohs matched the genetic profiles of the population of the Great Lakes region
This year, Ugandans have witnessed the use of DNA tests to settle prominent public cases in the media concerning the paternity of children and of celebrities who have died. What has not been known to many people is the dispute concerning the ethnicity of the ancient Egyptians by scholars in the 20th Century. This dispute has been solved scientifically by the DNA tests conducted on the mummies of the ancient Egyptians in 2012 and 2013.
In December 2012, DNA tests were conducted on the mummies of Pharaoh Rameses III and his son, which proved that they belonged to human Y chromosome group E1b1a. This is the Y chromosome group of Sub Saharan Africans who speak Niger–Congo languages.
The disclosed Y chromosome group of the Pharaoh, at the time of releasing the report, was considered as just one of the details to make the investigation scientifically solid with facts. But its revelation caused a stir equal to the purpose of the original forensic investigation.
Another group of mummies from the Amarna period of Egyptian pharaohs were tested by DNA Tribes, an American Company which specialises in conducting DNA tests, in 2013.
The conclusion of the tests were that the mummies autosomal profiles would be most frequent in the present day populations of the African Great Lakes region and Southern Africa. Subsequent analysis of the autosomal profile of the mummy of Pharaoh Rameses III also concluded that this matched the genetic profiles of the population of the Great Lakes region as well.
It was reported in the DNA Tribe’s digest of February 2013, that the DNA match results of the ancient Egyptian Amarna royal mummies with the present day world regions reflect the population changes in Africa after the time of Rameses III .
One issue which remains unresolved is that of language. The language of ancient Egypt is classified as belonging to the Afro-Asiatic family of languages, which are spoken by people like the Somali and Amhara of Ethiopia, while the genetic profiles of the mummies match those of Niger–Congo language speakers. The most likely explanation is that some of the Niger-Congo speaking people, who were carriers of human Y chromosome E1b1a, moved into ancient Egypt along the Nile from the Sahara region as the region dried up and fused with the Afro-Asiatic speaking people, giving rise to the unique language of ancient Egypt.
However, these speakers of the Niger–Congo language went on to form the ruling class producing pharaohs for Egypt, while retaining the customs which they practised in common with their relatives who had migrated south into the Great Lakes region as the genetic tests have shown.

What Can Africa Learn from Dubai?

This is Dubai, United Arab Emirates where many Africans love to go .
This place is located in the desert but with great vision and good leadership, the local authorities have been able to transform this desert to one of the most attractive cities in the world with its investment in only the real estate sector.
United Arab Emirates ( UAE ) where Dubai is located has only one resource: oil. Contrary to many parts of Africa like Nigeria, Congo, Côte d'Ivoire, Gabon,Kenya, Somalia,South Sudan, South Africa just to mention a few where there is not only oil in abundance but also a plethora of others resources( gold, diamond, uranium, cobalt, natural gas, platinum, fertile lands, beautiful landscape, ), and yet the volume of investment in real estate development in Dubai surpasses all those African "countries" .
By the way, many Africans after stealing money from the public funds in Africa go to buy properties in Dubai.
In conclusion, nobody is holding Africa back. It's Africans themselves who are the enemies of African Economic
Africa with over 60% of the world's Arable Land and we have no excuse to be poor.

Images Of Pharaohs That Prove Ancient Egyptians Were Black...

Narmer (Menes) African Pharaoh (He looks like Mike Tyson)...

By Kweku Ofori
#BlackHistoryMonth

Narmer or King Menes was African and the first Egyptian pharaoh. He was united the two parts of Egypt lands which was called Upper Egypt and Lower Egypt. With that united Menes established the Old Kingdom in 3100BCE. The discovery of his tomb was in 1897. There is believe that Menes ruled 62 years and the legend told that he killed by a hippopotamus.
Some historical records for Egyptian and Greece describe a period of civilization with a united Egypt under the King Menes in 3000 BCE. By the timeline of the First Dynasty, we see the use of complex mathematical place values well into the thousands. The Pharaoh Narmer (also called King Mena or King Menes) united Tawi (the Two-Lands of Kemet) and was the founder of the dynasties.
Narmer palette:
The Egyptian plaque or the palette of Narmer showing him wearing the White garland of Upper Egypt and the Red garland of Lower Egypt is believed to indicate that Narmer united Upper and Lower Egypt into a universal state. Other historical data indicates his central importance. Since the Narmer Palette has been dated to 3150 – 3125 BCE. I have chosen 3157 BCE as the beginning of the universal state of a predynastic period that we will call Nile River civilization.
This palette show that Cloth and writing came at the same time, about 3000 B.C.E. That when Narmer (or Menes) of Upper Egypt (upriver to the south) conquered Lower Egypt (downriver to the north), thus unifying the kingdom. A large commemorative stone shows him about to bonk his kneeling rival over the head.
