Black History Month Fact #5
Kemet (Ancient Egypt) was the most advanced civilization of the world. Who nurtured it? Ethiopians were indeed the predecessors to the Ancient Egyptians. Diodorus Siculus affirmed,
“They say also that the Egyptians are colonists sent out by the Ethiopians, Osiris having been the leader of the colony… And the larger part of the customs of the Egyptians are, they hold, Ethiopian, the colonists still preserving their ancient manners. For instance, the belief that their kings are gods, the very special attention which they pay to their burials, and many other matters of a similar nature are Ethiopian practices, while the shapes of their statues and the forms of their letters are Ethiopian.”
In other words, every aspect of Ancient Egyptian life originated in the Nubian Valley of Kush, to the south of Kemet, cultivated by Ethiopians. Osiris was probably an Ethiopian set out to migrate to the North where he decided to stay and extend the great Ethiopian civilization in the Nile River Valley, where he was deified as one of the most famous manifestations of God in Kemetic spirituality and mythology.
Ethiopian were world renowned at the time and their empire/civilization/skills/customs extended beyond the Nubian and Nile Valleys and into the Mediterranean.
