Woven Linen

Between 10000 and 8000 BCE the Africans of the Nile Valley also introduced the first calendar. Woven linen has been known in Egypt since about 7000 BCE.

5,600 B.C.E

The oldest depiction of a loom was found at Badari on a pottery dish dating from the middle of the 5th millennium BCE while the first known pictures of weavers were drawn during the Middle Kingdom.

The loom was horizontal with a wooden support for the warp beam and a cloth beam that could be rotated, to which the ends of the warp threads were tied and onto which the woven cloth was wound. In 6020 BCE Africans in the Congo use markings on bones to develop a numeration system. The tools included granite pots, fireplaces and human and animal bones. The mission delineated and defined the Cave with all its drawings and geometrical and decorative designs. In addition, the mission delineated the archeological site in the "Gararah" Valley and drafted a report to be submitted to Dr. Farouk Hosny, Minister of Culture in order to appropriate the budget necessary for the completion of the excavations in the area to find more data on this discovery.

FISHING 6000 BCE

Fish were caught with woven dragnets and weir-baskets made from willow branches, fishing nets for smaller fish, harpoons, hook and line, the hooks had a length of between eight millimetres and eighteen centimetres.

Agriculture in 4500 BCE Village culture at Merimde-Beni-Salame in the Nile Delta: a mixture of hunting, fishing and agriculture, with a central corn store. Primitive oval mud huts, dogs, sheep, goats and donkeys have been domesticated.
Neolithic Painting

In 4300 BCE: Renaissance of the Neolithic Naturalistic Painting. This was pottery painted with white and later with red colours about 4221 BCE. In 3700 BCE Silver, gold and copper was smelted in blowpipe furnaces. Ceramics 3300 BCE Negade I period in Upper Egypt: Re-polished black-rimmed ceramics with geometric or descriptive ornamentation (hunting motifs). 3150 BCE King Aha (Menes) unifies Upper and Lower Kemet and establishes Memphis as capital.
Egyptian Ancestry

The Egyptian-German archeological mission has realized an important discovery which proves that the ancient Egyptian had lived in the area currently known as the "Great Sea of Sands" in the southwest of Egypt, in the prehistoric period, or five thousand years ago; it had been a rainy area. Dr. Gaballah Ali Gaballah, Chairman of the Supreme Council of Archaeology said that the mission made three trips to the Western Desert "Galf Qabir" southwest Egypt near the junction of the borders of Sudan, Libya and Chad. For his part, Dr. Mohammed Al-Sagheer, head of the Egyptian Monuments Department said that the mission made an archaeological survey around the "Mahariq" Plateau and the "Garah" Cave area, where it discovered several tools which had been used by the ancient Egyptian living, then, in those remote areas.

Credo Mutwa

According to Credo Mutwa the Egyptian empire stretched all the way to South Africa. His evidence? Ancient Egyptian Spectre dug up in South Africa 2000 years ago and dating back to the old kingdom. Including the discovery of the Dufuna canoe, which predates the Egyptian Solar boat by 2,000 years. It should be noted, that the first dynasty of Pharaohs of Egypt were from Nigerian royal families, is evident from the fact that quite a number of them bore Nigerian tribal royal titles. 

L.A.Waddell, who translated early Sumerian Egyptian, and Indian inscriptions of Sumerian king-lists, insists that Sumerian king-lists dovetails into Egyptian and Indian King-lists, and that the first dynasty of Egyptian Pharaohs from the lineage of the Nubian (Black African), from me, Menes, all used Sumerian titles. It is easily recognizable that the titles in question are titles of existing Nigerian royal houses!!

European DNA & Dark-Skin

Europeans were dark-skinned until 8,000 years ago: Pale complexions were brought to Europe from the Near East, study claims: The original migrants to Europe from Africa arrived 40,000 years ago Up until 8,000 years ago, early hunter-gatherers largely had darker skin When Near East farmers arrived, they carried with them light skin genes Genomes of 83 people found 5 genes linked with diet and skin changes. 

 

It has been at the root of division and persecution for centuries, but it seems that the white skin of most modern Europeans did not evolve in Europe at all. 

Now genetic research has revealed that ancient European populations were dark skinned for far longer than had originally been thought. Rather than lightening as early humans migrated north from Africa around 40,000 years ago due to lower levels of sunlight, these first Homo sapiens retained their dark skin colour.

DNA analysis obtained from ancient human remains has shown that as these farmers bred with the dark skinned hunter gatherers, one of these genes became prevalent in the European population and European's skin colour began to lighten. Around 5,800 years ago the second gene, which makes skin colour lighter still, also began to spread though the European population. The research, which was presented at the 84th annual meeting of the American Association of Physical Anthropologists, shows that populations in Europe were still evolving until relatively recently. 

 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. 

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, scientists suggests. 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 samples were dated from 5,700 BC to 800 BC, ranging across the Stone, Copper, Bronze and Iron Ages. 'Our findings show progression towards lighter skin pigmentation as hunter and gatherers and non-local farmers intermarried, but surprisingly no presence of increased lactose persistence or tolerance to lactose,' said Professor Ron Pinhasi, from University College Dublin's Earth Institute.

'This means that these ancient Europeans would have had domesticated animals like cows, goats and sheep, but they would not yet have genetically developed a tolerance for drinking large quantities of milk from mammals.'  To read or download the whole article please click here
