African Origin of South Mesopotamia: Eridu, Kish, Tel Hassuna and Nippur, Craniometry, FORDISC 2.0

The research into human remains uncovered in Southern Mesopotamia was discovered using Forensic Analysis by craniometry. It utilises techniques used by the FBI to show the racial affinity of skeletal remains. This process is CSI-level proof!! There are approximately twenty Kish crania in the National History Museum in London. Fari Supiya, a lay physical anthropologist, measured the crania in 1977 using the FORDISC Handbook. The craniometry study from ancient Kish is listed below.


He recorded the result into FORDISC 2.0, also known as the FORensic DISCriminant program, developed by Stephen D Ouseley and  Richard L Jantz of the University of Tennessee. It compares the craniometric measurements of individual skulls to hundreds of crania in the Howells database. Supiya interpreted the majority Egyptian primary affinity as reflecting the basic population of Mesopotamia between 3,000 and 1000 BCE. 

Supiya's interpretation agrees with mid-twentieth-century anthropologists who concluded that Neolithic West Asia had a similar population to predynastic Egypt. He also stated that the two Norwegian primary affinities indicated a genetic contribution from northern Eurasia. 

Supiya interpreted the Dogon and Easter Island primary affinity of the crania as reflecting the very ancient genetic contribution from the Niger-Congo-speaking ancestors of the Sumerians.

The post-cranial analysis using the FORDISC 2.0 programme classed the Kish males in the Field Museum into the Black male category. The two females in the National History Museum; are defined under the Black female category. While one of the females was from the early dynastic period, the other was from the Babylonian era. These archaeological records also lend weight to the assertion that the people of Kish have an affinity with Africans.


From Tell Hassuna in mid-Mesopotamia to Eridu in the Southern part comes skeletal remains dating back to between 6000 and 4000 BCE. These remains represented heavy-boned, prognathous and large-toothed Meditarranians. Book: "Three Skulls from Tell Hassuna", by C S Coon, in, Sumer 6 1950, p93-96.

These results contradicted Coon's view, stating that the Eridu people only differed from modern Mediterraneans in the size of their teeth and prognathism. In addition, most of the African or Australian primary associations; are unaccompanied by European secondary associations. 

However, both of the European primary posterior probabilities are matched by African secondary associations so closely to a fraction of a point. Erik Trinkaus cited the high indices of Cro-Magnon limb proportions and their similarity to present-day populations such as Africans, Australians and Melanesians, which indicated that Cro-Magnon did not originate in Europe but in Africa.

The Japanese anthropologist, Y Mizoguchi, made a similar observation about the teeth of the Bantu-speaking samples he examined. What Coon and Mizoguchi failed to mention is that the size of the teeth of both the Eridu sample and some Bantu speakers are almost identical.


Prehistoric Times by James Anderson 1911 AD: "The first inhabitants of southern Europe, northern Africa, Arabia, France and the British Islands were a race of small men, who did not average in height more than 4 feet 5 inches. " "They were of slight build, with a dark complexion." "They were an African people."

One of the first pieces of evidence about the Grimaldi journey's sites is their remains in the caverns of Grimaldi (Baousse-Rousse), between Mentone and Ventimiglia and on the Italian side of the border. 

These caverns form one of the most compact groups of Palaeolithic caverns in Europe. 

Counting two small rock shelters, the group includes nine stations, the most important being the Grotte des Enfants, La Barma Grande, Grotte du Cavillon and the Grotte du Prince.

The "negroid" discovered by Dr Verneau in the Grotte du Grimaldi, though they differ from modern Bushmen, shows that the Aurignacians were acquainted with a negroid stock.

Fossil remains of these ancient Africans are in caves located in France, Switzerland, Central Europe, Bulgaria, Russia, and the Far East as far as Siberia. 

The African Khoisan nature of the Fossils was first documented by Boule, then by Marcellin & Vallois, in their book "Fossil Men". The Dryden Press (1957).

Europeans were dark-skinned until 8,000 years ago: Pale complexions came to Europe from the Near East, study claims: The original migrants to Europe from Africa arrived 40,000 years ago, and up until 8,000 years ago, most early hunter-gatherers had darker skin. When Near East farmers arrived, they carried with them light skin genes Genomes of 83 people and found five genes linked with diet and skin changes. 

It also shows that a population of hunter-gatherers living on the site of Motala, southern Sweden, had already developed both skin-lightening genes around 7,700 years ago together, with a third that gave them blue eyes. Dr Iain Mathieson, a geneticist at Harvard University in Massachusetts who led the work, said: 'Ancient DNA makes it possible to examine populations as they were, before, during and after adaptation events, and thus to reveal the tempo and mode of selection.


Nippur is another South Mesopotamian City that yielded crania from 900 to 500 BCE. Daris R Swindler, a Professor of Anthropology at the University of Seattle, took the measurements. The Nippur remains came from five levels, and the first is the oldest.

Level IV-V date back to 900-700 BCE, Level III to 640-620 BCE, Level II to 550-530 BCE and Level I to 530-500 BCE. At a glance, the FORDISC  2.0 interpretation for Nippur cranial affinities might appear confusing. It includes distinct population samples such as Egyptians, Easter Islanders, Norwegians, Hungarians, Teita (Kenyans) and Ainu (pre-Japanese).


However, only the Easter Islanders, Norwegians males and females, Egyptians and white males are part of the primary affinity populations. Since most of the primary affinities belonged to the Easter Islanders, we will clarify their cranial characteristics.

The Penrose distance analysis and K means indicates a morphological affinity of the sub-Saharan Africans and Austra-Melanesians. Most of the Nippur crania from the First Millenium BCE have high primary affinity scores with prehistoric Easter Islanders, who appear Negroid themselves, or perhaps Australoid.


The rest of the crania show affinities with the Egyptians, who are Africans. In addition, European similarities during the Islamic period incorporate primary posterior probability, matched by the Africans' secondary probability score. It is impossible to describe the Nippur Crania without referencing African peoples and others of African descent.

A study of ancient human bones has revealed how Early Europeans had difficulties digesting milk around 5,000 years after the introduction of farming. It took at least that long for their genes to evolve until they were no longer intolerant to lactose, the natural sugar in mammalian milk, as suggested by scientists. 
Researchers looked at ancient DNA extracted from 13 individuals buried at archaeological sites in the Great Hungarian Plain - a region known to have been at the crossroads of cultural change in European prehistory.

The ancient Mesopotamians and Babylonians were Predominantly non-Caucasians. 

In a particular country in West Africa, history lessons have ceased for over ten years, in primary and secondary schools, due to tribal sensitivity. What a disastrous decision!!! In my opinion, this conclusion amounted to nothing more than cultural vandalism. It is based on Parergon's knowledge of their ancient history and not the Pantagruelian version.

Had they known a third of the latter rather than the former, the absurdity of the decree to halt history lessons would have been apparent. They will be aware of their common ancestors' vast contributions to ancient cultures. Then, their tribal differences will pale into insignificance.

However, many Western-educated historians do not look past sub-Saharan Africa in most of their acclaimed research because of contradicting the status quo. And those that did were hugely rewarded with monumental uncovering. 

The ravine at Ounjougou allows access to layers of sediment over 30,000 years old (Eric Huysecom) A Swiss-led team of archaeologists has discovered pieces of the oldest African pottery in central Mali, dating back to at least 9,400 BCE. The sensational find by Geneva University's Eric Huysecom and his international research team, at Ounjougou near the Unesco-listed Bandiagara cliffs, reveals important information about man's interaction with nature.

The age of the sediment in which they were found suggests that the six ceramic fragments - discovered between 2002 and 2005 - are at least 11,400 years old. Most ancient ceramics from the Middle East and the central and eastern Sahara regions are 10,000 and between 9-10,000 years old, respectively.

Modern Black history is conjecture, ensuring our adventures resulted in eternal misadventures. Seek, and ye shall find: One by one to two, piece by piece, and from instance to instance of events.
