Fascinating subject. I understand they are making some progress too.<br /><br />I've read a couple of books, watched documentaries on how the Maya script was decoded. Just a triumph of human intelligence and perseverance.

To...Thank you, Julien, for this thoughtful comment. To understand how all the rulers of Genesis are related, you will need to understand the marriage and ascendancy pattern of Abraham's ancestors, the Horim (Horites). The ruler-priests lines intermarried and had a distinctive kinship pattern.<br /><br />Here are some articles that will be helpful in answering your questions:<br /><br />The Marriage and Ascendancy Pattern of Abraham's People<br />http://jandyongenesis.blogspot.com/2008/06/biblical-kinship-symmetrical-pattern.html<br /><br /><br />Sent-Away Sons<br />http://jandyongenesis.blogspot.com/2015/02/twins-sent-away-sons-and-heirs-to-throne.html<br /><br /><br />The Nubian Context of YHWH<br />http://biblicalanthropology.blogspot.com/2013/09/the-nubian-context-of-yhwh.html<br /><br /><br />Genesis 10 is not a table of nations. It provides details about a speciic line of people - the R1b Haplogroup which dispersed across the archaic world. Some of these, like Nimrod, were Abraham's kingdom-building ancestors. They were culturally Nilo-Saharan or Kushite. This dispersion has been verified by many sciences, including DNA studies, comparative linguistics, anthropology, archaeology, climate studies and migration studies.<br /><br />http://biblicalanthropology.blogspot.com/2010/10/migration-of-abrahams-ancestors.html<br /><br />http://jandyongenesis.blogspot.com/2007/06/making-sense-of-genesis-10.html<br /><br />This should help you with the questions you are asking. If not, let me know.<br /><br />Best wishes to you!<br /><br /><br /><br />Alice C.

I just wanted to say that your research has been an eye-opening experience for me, and also has gotten me to re-read the scriptures (again) from scratch as well as conduct more research in the tribes of Africa. I have one question and one request that I am wondering you can do for me:<br /><br />1) I reread the table of nations but I am lost as to how Abraham stemmed off Nimrod and is eventually a descendant of Arpacsad. Can you elaborate again on how you came to this conclusion? Thanks.<br /><br />2) Have you ever conducted research on the Eve/Ewe people of west africa? They have customs that are In line with the Hebrews of the scriptures and their oral history matches them to the kingdom of Kush and beyond (in Arabia). I have researched them for months now and have found them to have an uncanny semblance in the ways of the Hebrews. Especially in Necromancy, spoken of as a middle-eastern custom. This source came from Jacob spieths findings on the "Ewe people of German Togo".<br /><br />Last, they call their God "Yeve" or Mawu. I have found the name Yeve to be found in the older scriptures that date back 200-300 years ago. Yeve associated with Yhvh or Yehovah. What is your take on this? Thanks again! Much appreciated.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12983696781467157694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-688820610845171516.post-74966410064949501352015-10-31T17:26:56.901-07:002015-10-31T17:26:56.901-07:00The Indus Valley was earlier populated by peoples ...The Indus Valley was earlier populated by peoples who moved out of the Nile Valley, Canaan, and the Tigris-Euphrates Valley. Their ancestors were cattle-herding Proto-Saharans (c. 12,000-5,000 BC). The Proto-Saharans imagined that the Y of the long cow horns was a cradle for the sun, and they regarded the sun as the Creator's emblem. The so-called "Canaanite Y" indicated the divinely appointed ruler. That is why so many Biblical rulers have names with the initial Y: Yaqtan (Joktan), Yishbak (son of Abraham by Keturah), Yitzak (Issac); Yishmael (Ishmael), Yosef (Joseph), and Yeshua (Joshua/Jesus).<br /><br />The veneration of cows in Hinduism can be traced to those ancestors and the Harappa civilization that recognized Horus as father. Har-appa means "Horus is father" in Dravidian. Images of Horus and solar boats have been found as far east as Cambodia.Alice C.

They are nomadic shepherds who moved their flocks according to the seasons in the regions of Bulgaria, Macedonia, Yugoslavia, Albania, and Northern Greece, and some may still do that. They are considered to be an ancient people, but no one has, to my knowledge, definitively determined their origins. Their language is Greek with words of arachaic Greek, they have adopted Orthodoxy, but they hold to many tribal customs. In the 1950s they still traveled with their flocks, but have become more settled now, still holding to their traditions. Their costume is not like those above, but is made primarily of goat-hair and they live in "wigwam" type portable dwellings. Marriage is traced patrilineally. They are fair and blonde.<br /><br />MargaretMargarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12505517873442278318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-688820610845171516.post-68342215597318627172015-10-28T08:22:07.650-07:002015-10-28T08:22:07.650-07:00Alice: as you've talked about the dispersal of...Alice: as you've talked about the dispersal of early peoples, you've noted the use of red ochre in burial and as a powerful symbol of the hope of redemption. Those stories, from my memory, seem to be largely confined to Africa Nd other areas in "the old world". The NYT has a recent article on the excavation of a burial site from about 12,000 years ago in Alaska that also has the children buried in red ochre.
