Roots In Africa Beyond Egypt

By Gerald Massey

Book Overview

Roots In Africa Beyond Egypt is a book written by the renowned Egyptologist and author, Gerald Massey. The book delves into the ancient history of Africa, specifically looking at the roots of African civilization beyond Egypt. Massey argues that Egypt was not the only cradle of civilization in Africa, and that there were other great civilizations that existed in Africa before the rise of Egypt.The book is divided into chapters that explore various aspects of African history, such as the origins of humanity, the migrations of ancient peoples, the rise of ancient kingdoms, and the development of African culture and religion. Massey draws on a wide range of sources, including ancient texts, archaeological evidence, and his own extensive knowledge of African history and culture.Throughout the book, Massey challenges the Eurocentric view of history that has dominated Western scholarship for centuries, arguing that African civilization was just as advanced and sophisticated as any other in the world. He also explores the impact of colonialism and slavery on Africa, and the ways in which African culture has been suppressed and misrepresented over the centuries.Roots In Africa Beyond Egypt is a fascinating and thought-provoking book that offers a new perspective on African history and culture. It is essential reading for anyone interested in the history of Africa, and for those who want to challenge their own assumptions and biases about the continent and its people.THIS 82 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Book of the Beginnings Part 2, by Gerald Massey.
