Nile Valley Contributions to Civilization: Exploding the Myths: 1

Product Information

Although the Nile's water flow is now controlled by the Aswan Dam, constructed first in 1902 and added to in the 1960s and 1970s, the river's seasonal flooding was extremely important to ancient Egyptian civilization. As a work challenging Eurocentrism and making an argument for the worldwide cultural impact of Kemet, he succeeds and enlightens many. Hilliard was an educational psychologist, master teacher, author and historian who was internationally recognized for his outstanding scholarship. His overview of the Dynastic period and their culture - along with his tidbits of surprise information- is breathtaking and extensive. The ancient Nile River allowed for two impressive civilizations, Egyptian and Nubian, to emerge from the smaller settlements.

The Nile River no longer floods because the Aswan Dam was built, improved, and expanded throughout the 20th century.This brings me to the questions that Exploding the Myths and countless others like it have inspired, though not deliberately: why aren't other Afrikan civilizations and concepts explored, especially those in the Southern region of Afrika? I strongly recommend this piece on Kemet as the launching pad for a journey through Afrika's many civilizations and their contributions to the world.

This part of the Nile boasts breathtaking waterfalls as it meanders through the highlands into a deep gorge and through canyons. Europeans have claimed the non-African creation of Egypt to downgrade the position of African people in world history.The predictability of the Nile River flooding season, June - September, contributed to the survival of civilizations thriving for thousands of centuries. If you have ever questioned what you have learned in school (especially history class), this is the book for you! The Nile River allowed the earliest civilizations to flourish in spite of the surrounding harsh desert climate. Ancient civilizations developed irrigation systems to redirect water and enhance the growing season. While Browder largely avoids the pitfalls of this biased form of thought and makes arguments for Afrikan unity- casting away the Afrikan-American label so that they can reconnect with the heritage torn from them- and a respect for all religious concepts, I'm afraid many will miss the larger message Browder tries to convey with his survey of Kemetian influences on our society.

Absolutely an essential must-have look for any historian, or those with interest in astrological theology. This book has a two-fold purpose; to demonstrate to Black and White Hebrews and Jews their undeniable kinship and to encourage a better relationship among Israelites through understanding of that kinship. If you can handle the IMPACT of TRUTH of how Anthony Browder has exposed Christianity's mode of operation over the years and how it has even today a Mental Stronghold on those who would continue to believe a lie rather than the truth.

C., although the first established ancient civilization did not occur in Nubia until the Kingdom of Kerma reigned over Nubia from 2500 B. The dam helps to regulate the river waters, produce hydroelectricity, and improve the fish trade with the reservoir of water. From the introduction of this book, you get the idea that Anthony Browder is very influence by the work done by John G. In Egypt, the river can be referred to as Ar, which translates to the black river, because of the dark silt rich water. As noted, Browder is more adept at challenging the biases of Eurocentrism and exploring its effect on our world history, Kemet's legacy, and Afrikan consciousness than he is at shaping a convincing global narrative of Kemetian influence.
