He came there long after the time of Noah.<br /><br />He likely came to Nigeria from Arabia. The name resembles the Arabic name 'Ub ay diyya. Al-'Ubaydiyya (Arabic: العبيدية) was an Arab village before it was depopulated on March 3, 1948. It was located in Galilee about 6 miles south of Tiberias, close to the Jordan River. The Canaanites referred to al-'Ubaydiyya as Bayt Shamash which means "House of God." Shamash was another name for the Creator Re, whose emblem was the Sun. He was worshiped by different names across the vast Afro-Asiatic Dominion.<br /><br />In Bor-No Bayajida married the daughter of a local chief, but later fled after having a dispute with the ruler. This fits the biblical person of Cain (Kano) who married a daughter of the chief Nok. He is said to have fled after killing his brother.<br /><br />The Hausa claim that Bayajida, came from the east in an effort to escape his father. It is possible that his father was a ruler in Egypt or ancient Nubia. The story goes on to say that Bayajida eventually came to Gaya where he employed blacksmiths to fashion a knife for him. This fits the picture as the region of Gaya, Nok and Kano is famous for blacksmith clans, such as the Inadan. Gaya is said to be the origin of a man named Kano who first settled in the present Kano State in search of ironstone.Alice C.

Your comments are always welcome here and I hope that you will return often to challenge me.<br /><br />Indeed there is considerable evidence that Angkor Wat is a symbolic representation of Mount Meru in East Africa. In Hindu and Buddhist mythology (which have as Kushite beliefs) the mound that emerged from the primordial seas at the beginning of time is called Mount Meru. It emerges from the center of the Cosmic Ocean, and the Sun and seven visible planets circle the mountain. Mount Meru in Hinduism is a mythological mountain. However, the source of this idea is found in East Africa at Mt. Meru. In Egyptian it is spelled Meri, which is Mary in English. Meri is sometimes spelled Meni, with the n taking the place of the r, as in the Southeastern Asian languages (like Siamese), which call Mary "Mania."<br /><br />The Virgin Mary, whose womb swelled with the Son of God, is sometimes portrayed in icons as the mountain of God. The Prophet Daniel saw a mountain, from which a stone was cut by the hand of God (Dan. 2:34, 45). This is the stone which the builders rejected and which has become a stumbling block, even Jesus Christ, the Son of God.<br /><br />Angkor Wat also draws on Nilotic religious symbolism. It faces west toward the Nile and, as with the Egyptian royal tombs, corresponds in architectural form to the number 72. The number 72 represents the numerical sequence linked to the earth’s axial precession, which causes the apparent alteration in the position of the constellations one degree every 72 years. It has been noted also that Angkor Wat is located 72 degrees of longitude east of the Pyramids of Giza. The name Angkor correlates with the ancient Egyptian Anhk-Hor, meaning "May Horus Live." This was originally a Horite shrine. <br /><br />African, specifically Kushite, religion, preceeded Hinduism. It spread from Africa to Pakistan, India, Nepal and Cambodia. The Sudra of India are originally from the Nile region. "Sudra" means Sudanese.<br /><br />Dravidian Sudra mined gold in the mountains of southern Africa 2000 years ago. These same people populated southern India. The oldest Dravidian traditions speak of ancient prehistoric kingdoms in southern India, extending further south into land that is now under the seas. There was once a land bridge between India and the Arabian Peninsula. Many ancient Sudran temples and monuments are under the sea now. <br /><br />The Sudra didn’t establish cities in the north of India (the Aryan part) but they traveled far into Central Asia. In Nepal their priests are called "Harwa", the ancient Egyptian word for priest. These ruler-priests (also called "Sarki") are responsible for the diffusion of the Afro-Asiatic religious life that took root around the large water systems from west central Africa to the Indus River Valley.Alice C.

In Thai (one of my languages), the cognate is Nakhon, found in the names of many Thai cities (for example, Nakhon Rachisima, in NE Thailand, is called by the Khmer-speaking peasants who live not too far away Angkor Rach, or "royal town"). Further, Angkor was was built way too late for any memory of Nimrod or Hor to be embodied in it, being built around 1100 A.D. The Khmer, after all, left a history, and they are by no means extinct, being the people of Cambodia, whose culture influences to this day the internal life and speech of the Thai royal family. I think your try to prove a little too much for the actual evidence.<br /><br />Kind regards from Kepha, a SE Asia hand.Kephahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00999385775493831638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-688820610845171516.post-63281693538825828742011-06-02T16:35:05.598-07:002011-06-02T16:35:05.598-07:00Do you believe that the names Jokshan and Joktan a...Do you believe that the names Jokshan and Joktan are linguistically unrelated?Alice C.

These Africans were not of the priest caste. <br /><br />There are numerous "African" genetic strands, but presumably this article is referencing the Horite strand. This is called the Kohan or "priest marker" and has been known for a long time. It is identifiable and distinctive because Horite priests married daughters of priests only. The haplogue studies based on mitochondrial samples reflect the women since we receive the mtDNA from our mothers. So, yes, DNA studies confirm that the Horite ancestors of the priests of ancient Israel did marry exclusively within the priestly divisions/lines, which is what analysis of the Biblical genealogy material shows. This is the blood ancestry of Jesus Christ our Lord.Alice C.
