However, genetically they are not very closely related to the Nilo-Saharans who spread into Mesopotamia and India.

I had to read an excerpt from "The Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaudah Equiano" for my World Literature class almost a year ago, and he mentions of his tribe the Igbos that had several similar customs with Jews. The doctor Equiano refers to in the book mentions Afer and Afra when regarding to the pedigree of Africans by means of the wife and concubine of Abraham named Keturah. I do wonder if the Igbo relation to OT Judaism is similar to that of the Lemba in East Africa....<br /><br />*I apologize if another message similar to this appears already.

I do recall of reading excerpts from Oludah Equiano's autobiography for my World Literature class from about a year ago, and he mentions something of the similarities of of the tribes from West Africa that mentioned of customs that were very similar to that of Jewish customs, and the doctor he referred to made a link to Afer and Afra from Abraham by Keturah. And I think the Igbo were the people that was referred to in the story, though I'm not sure if they are mentioned by name. <br /><br />I'm not sure if I read something similar to that on your blog, but I'll be sure to continue reading some more on your blog along with those suggestions.

However, an argument has been made that, according to some Classical writers. Egyptian priests (not specifically identified as Horites) were reluctance to set foot in boats or perhaps forbidden to do so. This was also recorded of Igbo "orhenes" ( priests) who were forbidden to travel in canoes. The latter was referenced in an article published in the Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute for 1917. This was "Some Ibo Burial Customs" by Northcote Thomas. I recommend that you pursue the question of water travel in the Late Holocene, by which the Horites spread the Proto-Gospel.<br /><br />Much related data can be found by doing internet searches. Also, you might wish to pursue this by following the related reading at the end of the article. I especially recommend "The Afro-Asiatic Dominion"<br /><br />Best wishes to you!Alice C.

I do remember reading the out of Africa migrations around 70,000 yrs ago that eventually spread into southeast Asia, but never anything regarding a connection between the Indus Valley and Ancient Egypt.<br /><br />I do also remember reading about East Africans such as the Swahili making contact with India and Africa via trade in the 8th century, but never have I heard of African contact with the Indian subcontinent in the BC time period.<br /><br />Do you know of any books or websites where I could read more about this? I've read a few of the articles on your site, but this is among the compelling ones so far. I'm quite interested in learning more.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
