In many western countries, when an old person dies it is simply the death of
an old human being who has gone through life and whose days on earth now come to
an end. But in Africa, the death of an elder- an old man or an old woman,
becomes a supreme disaster because in the mind of that elder often carries
knowledge passed down from parent to child. Knowledge that is not only valuable
to Africa and her children, but to human kind as a whole. No matter where you go
in Africa, no matter how deep into the interior of the dark continent you tread,
you will find very ancient stories which are incredibly similar. You will find
African tribes and races who will tell you that they are descendants from gods
who came out of the skies thousands of years ago. Some however say that theses
gods came to them from the sea in magical boats made out of reeds or wood or
copper or even gold.
In some cases these gods and goddesses are described as
beautiful human beings whose skins were either bright blue or green or even
silver. But most of the time you will find it being said these great gods,
especially the ones that came out of the sky were non human, scaly creatures,
which lived most of the time in mud or in water. Creatures of an extremely
frightening and hideously ugly appearance. Some say that these creatures were
like crocodiles, with crocodile like teeth and jaws, but with very large round
heads. Some say that these creatures are very tall beings with snake like heads,
set on long thin necks, very long arms and very long legs. There are those that
tell us that these gods who came from the skies travelled through the lend in
magical boats made of bright metal, silver, copper or gold. Boats which had the
ability to sail over water or even to fly through the sky like birds. It is
further said that some of these sky gods carried their souls in little bags
which hung from their belts. These souls being in the form spheres of crystals
clear material. Spheres which could float about in the air, and which emitted a
dazzling light. A light which could illuminate an entire village at night...

Archaeologists have found a vast new network of royal tombs in Ethiopia, near the site where the 1,700-year-old Axum obelisk is to be re-erected. Experts using sophisticated imaging equipment discovered the burial chambers, even older than the obelisk, under a 1963 car park, said the UN. The stone monoliths were originally erected to mark burial sites for deceased members of the aristocracy. The final piece of the Axum obelisk was flown homefrom Italy on Monday. The whole structur...Early humans 'followed coast'
The first humans who left Africa to populate the world headed south along the coast of the Indian Ocean, Science magazine reports. Scientists had always thought the exodus from Africa around 70,000 years ago took place along a northern route into Europe and Asia. But according to a genetic study, early modern humans followed the beach, possibly lured by a seafood diet. They quickly reached Australia but took much longer to settle in Europe. Dr Martin Richards, of the University of...Stone age mass graves reveal green Sahara
Submitted by Marvy: One of the driest deserts in the world, the Saharan Tenere Desert, hosted at least two flourishing lakeside populations during the Stone Age, a discovery of the largest graveyard from the era reveals. The archaeological site in Niger, called Gobero, was discovered by Paul Sereno at the University of Chicago, during a dinosaur-hunting expedition. It had been used as a burial site by two very different populations during the millennia when the Sahara was lush. Careful examinati...The African foundations of New York
The remains of 20,000 African men, women and children have lain beneath the busy streets of New York for 300 years, waiting to tell their stories on the extent of slavery in the city. In March 1992, leading African-America archaeologist Michael Blakey arrived at the burial ground in downtown Manhattan. "I had readabout these people documented as chattel, " he said. "Now I was going to learn about these Africans in New York as human beings." A haunting sight greeted hi...Witchcraft legalised in Zimbabwe
News coming out of Zimbabwe has been surreal for quite some time, but from this month it could become even more so, as witchcraft and wizardry are legal again after a 107-year ban. But if President Robert Mugabe's new legislation is applied humanely then only good witches will find any solace in it, as the act prohibits the practice of witchcraft by people who use their supernatural powers to harm others.The 1899 prohibition which made it illegal to accuse anyone of being a witch or a wizard...The Mysteries of the Dogan People

The Dogan people of west of Africa
have a detailed knowledge of the universe that is astonishingly accurate. was it
as they claim, passed on by Ancient astronauts? Like many African tribes, the
