Greetings late, Looking over the highlights of ‘Nile and Sphinx...’ that which makes it a unique and timely work, I cited Chasselboeuf, Volney the French statesman in the Prologue of the work .. His full statement...is presented in an article by Edith Sanders the Hamitic Hypothesis’ Its Origin in Time Perspective’ ...Journal of African History, (JAH), 1969 , 527) Volney wrote: How we are astonished when we reflect that to the race of negroes, currently our slaves, and the objects of our contempt, we owe our arts, sciences and …when we recollect that, in the midst of these nations, who call themselves the friends of liberty and humanity the most barbarous of slaveries is justified; and that it is even a problem whether the understandings of negroes be the same species with that of white men! E. Sanders, ‘the Hamitic Hypothesis’ its origin in time perspective’ Journal, JAH: 1969: 527) At this time, I am presenting this with the memory of pure scholarship. Those who bar no language for clarity on a subject that yet plagues the arena of scholarship and theology. That extraordinary story is still excluded from the chronicles of time. That has been a handicap for those who can claim that ‘buried’, denied history... that is to put it in perspective with a simply question explored... Why? How did this serious. deliberate falsity of historical beginnings continue to this day. I chose Volney’s citation from the beginning of this project, to explore the background issue of ‘ ‘a Buried Past’ about the people among whom I am bred. Certainly over on the borders of the Nile river, the longest in the world.. Lands exist of the descriptive presentation in Drusilla D. Houston’s .... Ethiopians....’ of George G.M. James. Stolen legacy. Diop’s The African Origin of Civilization and the ancestral linkage...’How great it is what Thou hast Made’ preceding and predating all of it...so we proceed with the countless probes for the source of this vibrant and valid history. The question must arise in some thought...Are we overlooking an important aspect of today’s puzzling difficulties between the, the ethnicities of the human family, notably the ‘Black’ , Brown, red, yellow and white of it all? It seems that addressing that bluntly has become an issue within itself. Questions linger about the cultures bordering the surrounding desert of endless sand mounds in the crescent of Ethiopia, Sudan, Somalia, Eritrea, to the Atlantic Ocean crevice of Namibia, somewhere in the vicinity of Tunisia, Mauritania, Chad.. In the absence of a map to illustrate, I speculate. .. there was a natural ‘burial’ or covering up of a once fertile crescent with ceaseless sandstorms ... seemingly from a Higher Source than humankind. .. a reminder? ‘Dust thou art and to the dust...’? Where in those very remote civilizations was that law...ignored and through which customary rites a direct defiance implemented??? Those remote ancestors practiced the rites of passage...? Astonishing as Volney implied, that such a people, the progenitors of civilization, remains a mystery as the evidence of their primacy is yet ignored pending clarification of this phenomenal and astounding story. It will become impossible to continue the denial in the face of such validating evidence of the ‘Negro’ primacy in the origin of human species. Questions about it all must be placed on an elevated level. And the anthropological argument of human evolution from an earlier primate can everywhere be unraveled, and dismissed.....to claim a divine origin of the human species... from structures still standing, in the sites of Nile Valley culture from there throughout vast global territories..., Sphinxes , pyramids, in the valley, wall paintings and other significantly wondrous artifacts about which archeologists and other scientific researchers can only guess meaning intention, outcome and results in extended... .’ruins’ of magnificent form and figure. The voices of the ancients collectively are calling out in their silenced résistance. To this date in the history of human development, astonishment prevails. Looking over this, scholarship in speculations dominates from the varied issues we have presented with excerpts from ‘Nile and Sphinx, a Buried Past’... It is not a light topic. It is a persistent echo. What has been omitted from the knowledge and education of the masses? Has that which should be common knowledge from the onset of education of the human family been omitted from standard educational institutions? What is feared in shared common knowledge? I did not begin this with the intention of being so somber. Actually I am overjoyed to place this all in perspective as I wind down the path to its sharing in a whole presentation.. I am on the path to bringing about that reality within this very promising New Year. ............. Peace.... Love.... The Best.... It is.....
