This is not to brag or gloat, neither is it to demeanor put down any other theologian(s) or scholar(s), it is simply to say that reasonis what separates man from beast and reason is that portion of our thinkingfaculty that comes directly from Allah or if you choose to say God or any othertitle of source energy that you care to bestow. I say the latter to say, it isimpossible for one who is a scholar or researcher and possesses even a basedegree of reason to ignore such facts based largely thereon, a body of evidence,empirical and otherwise, that shows and proves the position of the one, anddisproves the position of the other, and still, in all obstinacy, cling to the positionof the other. Those claiming to be either theologians or scholars or both, wouldhave to, at some point, admit that they themselves are living untruths for eithergain, notoriety, or both. Either way we are taught in our doctrine that a mastermind can trace himself back through the ages, and thus he knows [the truth]. Sowe will begin.

CHAPTER 47 OF THE HOLY KORAN OF THE MOORISH SCIENCE TEMPLE OFAMERICA

"EGYPT, THE CAPITAL EMPIRE OF THE DOMINION OF AFRICA"

1. The inhabitants of Africa are the descendants of the ancientCanaanites from the land of Canaan.

According to my interpretation, the Prophet Noble Drew Ali is speaking here inmodern terminology in relation to what generally is accepted as Africa today. In

1884 at the Berlin Conference, the boundaries of Africa were decided and thussplit up under the dominion of the European powers. The fact of the matter isthat, Africa and Arabia are one land only divided by the Red Sea, and whollyseparated by the man made Suez Canal. Imagine the Mississippi River whichalmost splits the United States in two, being the dividing line between the UnitedStates of North America and we recognizing it as two distinct countries. This iswhat has happened to Africa and Arabia when some great cataclysm caused theRed Sea to form in those ancient of days. Herodotus, that famous Greekhistorian, said that it was strange that this land mass which includes all of Africa,Asia and Europe, was given three different and distinct names [1]. Geologists callthis land mass “Eurasia” or “Afro-Eurasia” this is undoubtedly the one land massthat was and considered today, the “old world.”[2]

Geologically Africa includes that part of Asia which we now call Mesopotamia,Palestine and Syria... Arabia and the Syrian Desert are merely the extension ofthe great deserts of Northern Africa.[3] Plate tectonics caused the Arabian plateto break off from the African shield, creating the Red Sea. As the EncyclopediaBritanica explains:

“Western Arabia formed part of the African landmass before a rift occurred in theEarth’s crust, as a result of which the Red Sea was formed and Africa and theArabian Peninsula finally became separated some five to six million years ago.Thus, the southern half of the peninsula has a greater affinity with the regions ofSomalia and Ethiopia in Africa than with northern Arabia or the rest of Asia.[4]

Nevertheless Arabia remains today the geological and ecological continuation ofAfrica, despite the Red Sea cleavage. Maurizio Tosi, in his important article “TheEmerging Picture of Prehistoric Arabia,”Annual Review of Anthropology 15(1986): 461-490 confirms:

“In general, Arabia is the continuation of the African system across the Red Sea,spanning the Saharo-Arabian phytogeogrphical region comprising its northernand central parts and the Sudanese one for its tropical southern and easterncoastlands. Physically the (Arabian) peninsula is a part of Africa, landscaped bythe same geological and climate processes as the eastern Sahara and theEthiopian highlands. In terms of geomorphology and climatology Arabia is part ofwhat’s called the “Saharo-Arabian Region.” But the ecological evidence(phytogeographical and zoogeographical) also points to Arabia being “Africaacross the Red Sea”. In 1982 Stacey International published its Saudi-endorsedstudy of the region, noting:

“Maps and geography books make Arabia a part of Asia, but plant and animal lifeclearly bear out the theory that it is really an extension of Africa…Saudi Arabia’swildlife is…an African complex of species…The animals and plants of northern andnortheastern Saudi Arabia are generally closely related to or identical withSaharan species…”[5]*

throughout Arabia.

Canaan could logically be considered North East Arabia or on the contrary, Arabiacould be easily considered South west Canaan if we were using ancient maps todetermine. All of this area was called Asia by the early scholars of antiquity andour scholars of yesteryear in these modern times.

We find cross references to such a claim as made by the Prophet Drew Ali comingfrom the ancient city of Gubal (Gebal) located in ancient Canaan, which came tobe known as Byblos by the Greeks of which you get your word “Bible” whichliterally means “Papyrus Book” passed down to us today. It is no wonder that thecore of the biblical accounts take place in Ancient Canaan which came to beknown as Palestine and Israel respectively and is the cause of so much dramaand angst in these modern days and times. Today the city of Gubal is calledLebanon. According to the Phoenician historian Sanchuniathon, the city of Gebalwas built around 5000 B.C. By Chronus (biblical Noah?) as the first city of ancientCanaan [6]. It is believed by many historians that this modern day city is theoldest inhabited city in the world boasting of a continuous population from thetime of the earliest Canaanites some 8300 years ago. The Arabic speakers callthis city by the name Jubayl or Jbeil which is a direct descendant of theCanaanite name Gubal. Modern archaeologists radio carbon date the city to 6230B.C. [7]

Even in earlier times, the writer Philo of Byblos (64-141 C.E.) claimed Gubal hadthe reputation for being the oldest city in the world. At some point during the OldKingdom (3rd millennium B.C.) Gubal is seen as an Egyptian colony and an allyto ancient Egypt for many centuries. [8]. Tombs of the first dynastic period ofancient Egypt used timber from Byblos (This is akin to Solomon receiving timberfrom Hiram of Tyre). One of the oldest Egyptian words for a sea faring boat was“Byblos Ship.” the first dynastic ruler Kha'skehemwy would send signed gifts tothe shrine of the “Mistress of Byblos” [Ishtar].[9]

We find a striking letter from the rulers of Gubal, Rib-Hadda and his successor Ili-

Page 4: Old Man Ham & Kush

Rapih, pleading for assistance from Akhenaten against the Hapiru (Hebrews ofJoshua). This was between the years of 1350-1335 B.C. The years closelyattributed to the raiding of Canaan by Joshua (Isrealites). In EA 139 of theArmana Letters (EA meaning “EL ARMANA”) under the title “A new voice, an oldstory”, sent by Ili-Rapih, we read:

“To the king, [my] lord my sun: Message of Ili-Rapih, your servant: message ofGu(b)la, your maidservant. I fall at the feet of the lord, the Sun, 7 times and [7times]. Do not neglect Gu-la, your city and the city of your ancestors from mostancient times. Moreover, behold Gu-la! Just as Hikuptah, so is Gu-la to the king,my lord. Do not neglect the delicts of a servant as for he acted as he pleased inthe lands of the King...”

It is clear that Ili-Rapih, ruler of Gubal, is showing the highest degree ofreverence that one can show a king in this correspondence. Surely, he would nothave called Gubal “your city” and the “city of your ancestors from most ancienttimes” if this were not truth as such a statement could have been looked at withthe highest degree of disrespect. Reason avers, that this Pharaoh was indeed oneof the sons of this ancient city of Canaan and the whole context of the aboveasserts some form of verity and validity to what the Prophet Noble Drew Ali hasrelayed to us in this opening verse of chapter 47. Diodorus Sicilus claims that theCushites told him that the Egyptians were a colony drawn out of them by Osiris[10]. All archaeologists agree that at some point, Egypt became settled by thoseoutside of that area. Canaan was an ancient stronghold and identified as Cushiticas we will note later in this exegesis. Also, if this letter is referencingAnkhenaten, it is plausible that Ankhenaten based on his physiognomy as shownin the many statues and carvings, and his introduction of the worship of the “oneGod”, could have been descendant of ancient Canaan. Why else would he depicthimself as having the body of a woman at times and the face and braun of aman? This researcher infers that this was done to represent the Sun-God Aten,and the Moon Goddess Ishtar whom the nations of the Levant would reference insuch order when addressing the Pharaoh. He is also depicted as a very tall beingwhich gives description to the inhabitants of Canaan as noted several times in theBible, whose accounts are copied into the Quran of Mecca. This will be addressedin detail in the upcoming book on this particular topic.

According to the Smith's Bible Dictionary of 1966-77, we get this definition forGebal:GE'BAL (a line, or mountain ridge) (Psalms 83:5-7). A district S. of Moab, fromW. el Ahay S. to Shobek, near W. Shuweir. The cities were Arindela, Bozrah,Shobek, Tophel, and others smaller – 2. A very ancient city on a spur of Lebanon,close to the shore anciently having a fine harbor, which is now choked up withsand and ruins of buildings, quays, etc. The castle is one of the best specimens ofancient masonry, having stones 20 feet long and beveled. The columns andwalls, and their great extent especially, prove the splendor and importance of thecity (Ez. 27:9; Joshua 13:5). Workers in stone from G[ebal] were employed onSolomon's temple (1 K. 5:18 – stone squarers being a translation of Giblites –people of Gebal). Jebail.

These were the veteran craftsman, the master masons of old. The descendants ofJoshua, called “Hebrews” and “Jews” today, have written in the Psalms of theirTorah at 83:4-7:

“come they say, let us destroy them as a nation. That the name of Israel beremembered no more. With one mind they plot together; they form an allianceagainst you – the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, of Moab and the

Page 5: Old Man Ham & Kush

Hagarites,Gebal, Ammon and Amelek. Philistia, with the people of Tyre. EvenAssyria has joined them to lend strength to the descendants of Lot.”

These are the predecessors to the Moorish colonies that would later settle inNorth Africa after being driven from their homeland, Canaan. It is Israel whichdisplaced them but the Torah reads as if these, our ancestors are the aggressors.The master masons of Gebal have always furnished the building materials forKings as the bible undoubtedly proves at 1Kings 5:18 “The craftsman of Solomonand Hiram and the men of Gebal...”

A curious work was translated in 1860 or thereabout, by the OrientalistChwolsohn, and presented to an ever-incredulous and flippant Europe under theinnocent title of Nabathean Agriculture. In the opinion of the translator thatarchaic volume is a ‘complete initiation into the mysteries of the pre-Adamitenations, on the authority of undeniably authentic documents.’ It is ‘an invaluablecompendium, the full epitome of the of the Doctrines held, of the arts andsciences, not only of the Chaldeans, but also the Assyrians and Canaanites of theprehistoric ages.’ ” [11]

2. Old man Cush and his family are the first inhabitants of Africa whocame from the land of Canaan.

3. His father Ham and his family were second. Then came the wordEthiopia, which means the demarcation line of the dominion of Amexem,the first true and divine name of Africa. The dividing of the land betweenthe father and the son.

Here, the Prophet is speaking in the eponymous language of early historians whoconflated the biblical characters with their historical representatives and, to relayto us that we are the ancient Cushites and Hamites, builders and civilizers of theold world. Old man Cush speaks to the antiquity of our race. Some notablehistorians and researchers have agreed with this revelation from the Prophet thatthe inhabitants of Africa did come from the ancient land of Canaan. Rudolph R.Windsor who wrote the book, From Babylon to Timbuctoo says “First of all, inancient periods, the black Hebrews referred to Egypt (the guardian of thenortheastern gate of Africa) as the Land of Ham. The Hebrew ethnologist usedthe eponymous name (Ham) because they were conscious of the fact that manyof Ham’s descendants traveled from Asia toward the south and inhabited thecontinent we know of today as Africa. It seems that there are no Semites orIndo-Europeans in the Land of Ham (Africa) before the enslavement of theHebrews and the Hyskos invasion. Ancient Palestine was part of the Land of Hambefore the Hebrews came and expelled the Hamitic Canaanites.” Herbert Wendtwrote in his book “It Began in Babel”: “All indications point to the fact that Asiawas the cradle of the black race”

Rudolph Windsor goes on to say in his book

“Now we know that Asia was the birthplace of the black race. How did thesepeople in Asia become lighter in complexion? There are five answers to thisquestion (1) The Indo-European invasion or Germanic invasion of Asia, (2) TheGreek invasion of the Middle East, (3) the Roman invasion of the Middle East andNorth Africa, (4) The Jewish slave trade, and (5) The Arab slave trade. The Indo-European invaders penetrated the Middle East and mixed with black Asiatics asfar away as India during the second millennium B.C. The European Scythianspassed through southern Russia and Central Asia as far as the borders of China.

Page 6: Old Man Ham & Kush

[he cites from Herbert Wendt, It Began in Babel p. 14] During the Greek andRoman invasions, their soldiers settled down in the Middle East and North Africato disseminate Greek and Roman Culture. (he cites from, A History of the Jewsby Solomon Grayzel page 42) Moreover, they married colored woman. The Jewssold white slaves (he cites from Israel Abraham’s, Jewish Life in the Middle Agespages 98-99) to the Arabs throughout Africa and Asia. When the black Moorsfrom North Africa conquered Portugal and Spain, they transported thousands ofwhite slaves of Germanic descent to Africa (J.A. Rogers, World’s Great Men ofColor. Page 124.). All of these white people who came or were brought to Africaand Asia were absorbed into the native population.” [12]

“How and where did Africa receive its black population? Did it come from thesouth, the east, the north, the west, across the mighty oceans, or did thispopulation originate in the interior of the continent through a gradual process ofevolution? Herbert Wendt and Basil Davidson say that it presumably came fromMesopotamia (Babylonia).” The history of the ancient black Jews indicates thatthe early patriarchs of the African people migrated from Babylonia, but there is aproclivity among many scholars to bypass Jewish sources (because of prejudice),and look elsewhere for the solution in the mythologies of the nations. Much truthhas become lost in the worship of man gods and in the deification of many kings.Can we put any credence in Jewish records that record the ethnology andmigrations of the ancestors of the Africans? I think so because Abraham camefrom the district of Babylon, which was the cradle of civilization. Abraham hadoral traditions transmitted from Noah and Shem. Abraham rendered obeisance tothe one true God; therefore, his descendants were able to transmit a longuninterrupted religion, history, culture, and language. No other nation in the NearEast can boast of claim as much. Even great as Egypt was, her ancient religionand language are now extinct. The Hamites began to arrive in Africa from themiddle East between 5000-3500 B.C. These Hamites were (according to theHebrews): Mizraim (Egypt), Phut (Somaliland and westward) and Cush(Ethiopia). The Hamitic Canaanites did not colonize North Africa until the ninthcentury B.C., when they established the city of Carthage at Tunis. The Egyptiansand their descendants are Ludim, Anamim, Lehabim, Naphtuhim, Pathrusim,Casluhim, Philistim, and Caphtorim.[13]

Next, as we find detailed in Druscilla Dunjee Houston's indefatigable works,Wonderful Ethiopians of the Ancient Cushite Empire, “we come to the fact thatthe Canaanites called themselves Cushites and that the Hebrew writers gavethem the same name; then we reflect upon the strange relationship of the familyof Cushite tongues to the so-called Indo-European group of languages” [14]. Weare accustomed to think of Ethiopia as a restricted country in Africa but this wasnot true. The study of ancient maps and the descriptions of the geographers ofold, reveals that the ancient Land of Cush was a very widespread and powerfulempire. Rosenmuller shows us that the Hebrew scholars called Cush, all thecountries of the torrid zone. It was the race that that early scholar Huxley sawakin to the Dravidians of India, stretching in an empire from India to Spain. TheGreeks described Ethiopia as the country around the Indus and Ganges. [15]

The early indefatigable scholar of Ancient Asiatic culture, Godfrey Higgins, hadthis to say about an ancient city of the so called blacks:

“It was the opinion of Sir William Jones, that a great nation of Blacks formerlypossessed the dominion of Asia, and held the seat of empire at Sidon. Thesemust have been the people called by Mr. Maurice Cushites or Cuthites, describedin Genisis; and the opinion that they were Blacks is corroborated by the by the

Page 7: Old Man Ham & Kush

translators of the Pentateuch, called the Seventy, constantly rendering the wordCush by Ethiopia. It is very certain that, if the opinion be well founded, we mustgo for the time when this empire flourished to a period anterior to all our regularhistories. It can only be known to have existed from accidental circumstances,which have escaped amidst the ruins of empires and the wrecks of time. Of thisnation we have no account; but it must have flourished after the deluge. And, asour regular chronological systems fill up the time between the flood and what iscalled known undoubted history; if it be allowed to have existed, its existence willof course prove that no dependance can be placed on the parts of that history. Itwill shew that all the early chronology is false; for the story of this empire is nottold. It is certain that its existence can only be known from insulatedcircumstances, collected from various quarters, and combining to establish thefact. But if I succeed in collecting a sufficient number to carry conviction to animpartial mind, the empire must be allowed to have existed” [16]

"We may perceive in all this the remembrance of a powerful empire founded byCushites in very early ages. We find traces of a wealthy nation, constructors ofgreat buildings, with an advanced civilization like that of Chaldea. This must betrue as everywhere we find traces of Cushites in Arabian literature and theirbrothers the Canaanites."[17] Now according to these early scholars, whom werealso archaeologists and studied the archaeological remains, they unequivocallynote the existence of an ancient empire that held its seat in Sidon. To where dowe corroborate this history outside of these early scholars which happens to beright in line with our Holy book the Moorish Koran, and mentioned in the Armanaletters? A lot has been hidden from us.

Sidon is said to be the son of Canaan by the biblical codex writers but in allactuality, it is a city of ancient Canaan and could possibly be part of a vast citycalled by the Greeks Marathos. Another early prominent scholar on Asiatichistory, John Denison Baldwin, in his book Pre-Historic Nations, had this to sayabout the early Canaanites whom were given the name Phoenicians by theGreeks:

“Other remains of rock-sculpture and Cyclopean building were noted at Marathos;and so it is throughout Phoenicia. The Cushite origin of these cities is so plain,that those most influenced by the strange monomania which transforms thePhoenicians to Semites now admit that the Cushites were the first civilizers andbuilders in Phoenicia. Those old builders, whose sculpture produced suchastonishing effects in coarse rock, resorted to wood and metal for the finish andornamentation of their work [18].”

“The doubts and perplexities that have troubled inquiry concerning thePhoenicians are due chiefly to the influence of chronological dogmatism.Investigators have created most of them by assuming that the commonly acceptscheme of Ancient History must not be disturbed. To explain the facts presentedfor consideration, we must disregard this influence, and be entirely free to admitany conclusion that shall seem necessary. The great antiquity of the people calledPhoenicians was acknowledged by the ancients. Herodotus, evidently, did notsuppose it could be denied. Josephus, while pointing out that “almost all whichconcerns the Greeks happened not long ago,” mentions as a fact generallyunderstood of the antiquity of the Phoenicians was as great as that of theChaldeans and Egyptians. He says, writing against Apion: The Greeksacknowledge “that they were the Egyptians, the Chaldeans, and the Phoenicians,who preserved the memorials of the most ancient and most lasting traditions of

Page 8: Old Man Ham & Kush

mankind [19].”

Another early notable scholar, Bunsen, says in his Philosophy of Ancient History,"The Hamitic family as Rawlinson proves must be given the credit for being thefountainhead of civilization. This family comprised the ancient Ethiopians, theEgyptians, the original Canaanites and the old Chaldeans. The inscriptions of theChaldean monuments prove their race affinity. The Bible proves theirrelationship. It names the sons of Ham as Cush, Mizraim, Phut and the race ofCanaan. Mizraim peopled Egypt and Canaan the land later possessed by theHebrews. Phut located in Africa and Cush extended his colonies over a widedomain. " Bunsen concludes by saying, "Cushite colonies were all along thesouthern shores of Asia and Africa and by the archaeological remains, along thesouthern and eastern coasts of Arabia. The name Cush was given to four greatareas, Media, Persia, Susiana and Aria, or the whole territory between the Indusand Tigris in prehistoric times. In Africa the Ethiopians, the Egyptians, theLibyans, the Canaanites and Phoenicians were all descendants of Ham. They werea black or dark colored race and the pioneers of our civilization. They wereemphatically the monument builders on the plains of Shinar and the valley of theNile from Meroe to Memphis. In southern Arabia they erected wonderful edifices.They were responsible for the monuments that dot southern Siberia and inAmerica along the valley of the Mississippi down to Mexico and in Peru theirimages and monuments stand a "voiceless witnesses."[20] We have ProphetNoble Drew Ali cited as saying “The Moors were living up and down theMississippi” giving attestation to him being a master mind and purveyor of a losthistory of our people.

Wilford, that eminent student of the literature of India, found that Cush was oftenmentioned in the Sanskrit writings of the people of India. The world according tothe Puranas, ancient historical books, was divided into seven dwipas or divisions.What we know today as Ethiopia was Cusha-Dwipa, which included Arabia, AsiaMinor, Syria, Nubia, Armenia,Mesopotamia, and an extended region in Africa.These Sanskrit writings prove that in remote ages these regions were the mostpowerful richest and most enlightened part of the world. From these authoritativerecords and the conclusions drawn by historians of deeper research we woulddecide that many ancient peoples, who have been assigned to other races in theaverage historical book of modern times, were in reality Cushites. There werenations that called themselves Cushites who never knew themselves under thetitles and classifications that superficial students have given them today, nameslike Ethiopians. The Canaanites, even up until the days of “Christ” calledthemselves Cushites.”[21]

In actuality, Ham and Cush and Canaan are one and the same, just differentcultures spread out across the Asiatic or Eastern portion of the earthland,contemporaneous with each other in the remotest of times. Ancient Canaancomprised ancient Babylon (Chaldea), Arabia, India, and Canaan as we know ittoday. “Heeren in his Ancient Nations of Africa, tells us that commercialintercourse existed Between the countries of southern Asia, between India andArabia, Ethiopia, Libya and Egypt, which was founded upon their mutualnecessities; and became the parent of the civilizations of these peoples.” [22]

The testimony of those notable scholars as given above should suffice and satisfyany doubt that one may have in regards to if Prophet Drew Ali brought to us atrue accounting of our history. As this is just a note on this subject, I did not wishto belabor the points therein as I have many, many more references to sharefrom my findings. Those will be compiled in a later volume which will be released

Page 9: Old Man Ham & Kush

in book form by this researcher.

It is also obvious that Ethiopia does not literally mean “demarcation” or“something divided” according to the etymological and standardized meaning ofthe word. The Prophet is elucidating here that when this word, Ethiopia came intoplay, there was a definite distinction made between the Maures (Moors) of NorthAfrica, and those whom the Greeks called Ethiopians by these early historiansthus, separating us to a degree. In this Moorish American Lexicon however, thisname will forever mean the aforementioned.

4. The dominion of Cush, North-East and South-East Africa and North-West and South-West was his father's dominion of Africa.

“Champollion, the father of Egyptology, in his valuable memoirs declared, thatthe Lower Valley of the Nile was originally peopled from Abyssinia and Meroe.”[23]. “The Pharaohs claimed to be literal and lineally descended from Amen-Ra.This was implicitly believed by their subjects. Let us seek to trace who Amen-Rawas. He was originally the god of Ethiopia. Amen-Ra was Cush, the son of Hamfrom whom the Cushites sprang. He was not one of the oldest deities of Egyptbecause he was preceeded by the gods of the ages of Noah (Saturn) and Ham.About the time of the rise of Thebes his name from his worldwide conquests musthave been entered into the cycle of gods; for Africans deified their dead kings.Undoubtedly descendants of the great Cush sat upon the throne of Egypt This iswhy his name and form appear in the 11th Dynasty and its line of kings assumedhis name.[24]

His became the predominant shrine of Egypt and its enrichment became the chiefobject of the Pharaohs. Amen or Cush was recognized by Egypt as its chief god.All the mummery of the world which tries to resolve the gods of old into anythingelse presents the height of folly. The ancients looked upon Zeus, Apollo andOsiris as persons. Amen-Ra was the Zeus of Greece, that was why they said thegods [of Greece] banqueted with the Ethiopians. He was the Jupiter of Rome.Zeus was king of kings because he was chief ruler in Ethiopia and over the lesserkings in his wide domains stretching from India to farther Norway. Horus, Apollo,Belus and Nimrod his son, were recognized and worshipped by all Cushitecolonies. In the sculptures the Negro types of Africa are the assistants at thefestivals in Amen's honor. He, himself, was of the same ancestry. In the laterchapters of the Egyptian ritual his name is in the language of the Negroes ofPunt.”[25]

Until this day, you can find Cushite tribes, preserving the Cushite tongue in theHorn of Africa and present day Sudan and other countries east of Africa. TheIndo-European tongue which is composed of the Sanskrit element, is largelybased in part and derived from the Cushite family of languages. The dominion ofHam, which too can be considered a Nilo-Saharan language by some but not allaccounts, gives us clues to this portion of the history as relayed by our Prophet.The Puranas, the ancient historical books of India, speak of the civilization ofEthiopia as being older than that of Egypt. These Sanskrit books mention thenames of old Cushite kings that were worshipped in India and who were adoptedand changed to suit the fancy of the later people of Greece and Rome.The HinduPuranas speak of the Cushites going to India before they went to Egypt, provingHindu civilization coeval (Having the same age or date of origin) with that ofChaldea and the country of the Nile. These ancients record that the Egyptianswere a colony drawn out from Cusha-Dwipa and that the Palli, another colonythat made the Canaanites follow them from the land of Cush. “In those primitivedays, the central seat of Cush was not the Meroe of our day, which is very

Page 10: Old Man Ham & Kush

ancient, but a kingdom that preceeded it by many ages; that was called Meru.Lenormant spoke of the first men of the ancient world as "Men of Meru."Sanskrit writers calledIndra, chief god of the Hindu, king of Meru. He wasdeified and became the chief representative of the supreme being. Thus wasprimitive India settled by Cushite colonists from the ancient land of Canaan. Earlywriters said there was very little difference in the color or features of the peopleof the two countries. Ancient traditions told of the deeds of Deva Nahusha,another sovereign of Meru, who extended his empire over three worlds. Thelost literature of Asia Minor dealt with this extension of the Cushite domain.” [26]

The Armana letters speaks of a nation called “Ullassa” which some interpretersand translators of those ancient diplomatic corresponding texts, contend to beTripoli. [needs more research]. The above in total gives credence to the fact thatEgypt was indeed the capital Empire of the dominion of what we know today asAfrica. By careful analysis of the Armana letters, every kingdom of the Levantand those inside Africa to a degree, gave tribute to the Pharaoh and he was seenas a representative of the Sun-God while in the Levant particularly, the rulers ofthose lands were seen as representatives of the Moon Goddess Ishtar as she ismentioned several times in said letters.

5. In later years many of their bretheren from Asia and the Holy Landsjoined them.

This statement alone proves that they were all one peoples, brothers and sistersof varying cultures sharing one common thread of civility, organization,government, and religion. When the bible mentions these tribes “Edom and theIshmaelites, of Moab and the Hagarites, Gebal [that is Byblos] Ammon andAmelek. Philistia, with the people of Tyre. Even Assyria has joined them to lendstrength to the descendants of Lot”, you understand what is meant thisconglomeration and the statement above as relayed to us by our Prophet DrewAli. We will detail this in the exegetical explanation of the next verse.

6. The Moabites from the land of Moab who received permission from thePharaohs of Egypt to settle and inhabit North-West Africa; they were thefounders and are the true possessors of the present Moroccan Empire.With their Canaanite, Hittite, and Amorite bretheren who sojourned fromthe land of Canaan seeking new homes.

The above verse is a detailing of the Prologue of the HOLY KORAN OF THEMOORISH SCIENCE TEMPLE OF AMERICA as given by the Prophet when hestated:

“The industrious acts of the Moslems of the northwest and southwestAfrica. These are the Moabites, Hamathites, Canaanites, who were drivenout of the land of Canaan, by Joshua, and received permission from thePharaohs of Egypt to settle in that portion of Egypt. In later years theyformed themselves kingdoms. These kingdoms are called this dayMorocco, Algiers, Tunis, Tripoli, etc.”

This researcher has already proven without doubt the ethnicity of the Moabitesand Ammonites in a previous note. (To read that note click here).These are thepeople that make up the Mauri-Berber tribes of North Africa. This researcherbelieves these particular tribes to represent the oldest of our race. Houstonpoints out:

“Strabo mentions the Nubians as a great race west of the Nile. They came

Page 11: Old Man Ham & Kush

originally from Kordofan, whence they emigrated two thousand years ago. Theyhave rejected the name Nubas as it has become synonymous with slave.They call themselves Barabra, their ancient race name. Sanskrithistorians call the Old Race of the Upper Nile Barabra. These Nubians havebecome slightly modified but are still plainly Negroid. They look like the Wawa onthe Egyptian monuments.” [27]

“Baedecker describes them as strong, muscular, agricultural and more warlikeand energetic than Egyptians. Keane says the Nubians excel in moral qualities.They are by his description obviously Negroid, very dark with full lips and dreamyeyes. They have the narrow heads which are the cranial formation of Ethiopia.Race may be told by shape of the skull far better than by color or feature, whichare modified by climate. The members of the Tartar race have perfectly roundedskulls. The head of the Ethiopian races is very elongated. Europeans have anintermediate skull. The cranial formation of unmixed races never changes. Keaneconcludes by saying, "All Barbara have wooly hair with scant beards likethe figures of Negroes on the walls of the Egyptian temples." The race ofthe Old Empire approached closely to this type.”[28]

"In the oldest recorded traditions, Cushite colonies were established in the valleyof the Nile, Barabra and Chaldea. This beginning must have been not later than7000 or 8000 B. C. or perhaps earlier. They brought to development astronomyand the other sciences, which have come down to us. The vast commercialsystem by which they joined together the "ends of the earth" was created andmanufacturing skill established. The great period of Cushite control had closedmany ages prior to Homer, although separate communities remained not only inEgypt but in southern Arabia, Phoenicia and elsewhere."[29]

“According to Dr. Pritchard, it is probable that the Barabra may be an offshootfrom the original stock that first peopled Egypt and Nubia. It was the OldRace of the higher civilization that ruled Egypt in the pre-dynastic ages. It wasfrom this nation went forth the colonies that spread civilization. This old race ofthe Upper Nile, the Agu or Anu of the ancient traditions, spread their arts fromEgypt to the Ægean, from Sicily to Italy and Spain. Mosso Angelo says that thecharacteristic decorations on the pottery of the Mediterranean race of prehistorictimes is identical with that of pre-dynastic Egypt. Reisner in 1899 examined 1200tombs in the Nile valley. He found the remains of a distinct race who buried theirdead with legs doubled up against abdomen and thorax. This was an oldEthiopian form of burial, which preceeded embalming and may be traced throughancient Cushite lands.” [30]

Barabra is an old ethnographical term for the Nubian peoples of Sudan andsouthern Egypt. The word is variously derived from Berberi, i.e. Berber people, ordescribed as identical with Barabara, figuring in the inscription on a gateway ofTethmosis I, as the name of one of the 113 tribes conquered by him. In a laterinscription of Rameses II at Karnak (1300 B.C.), Beraberata is given as the nameof a southern conquered people. Thus it is suggested that Barabra is a realethnical name, confused later with Greek and Roman barbarus, and revived in itsproper meaning subsequent to the Moslem conquest. A tribe living on the banksof the Nile between Wadi Haifa and Assuan are called Barabra.” [31] This negatesWayne B. Chandler's, Chancellor Williams, and many others, and their meaningof Berber and those who equate it with the Roman word for Barbarian. Berber isan original name just passed down to us in the form we pronounce it today. Thiswriter offers a challenge to refute any of the above.

Page 12: Old Man Ham & Kush

Another Moorish tribe of the ancient Berber stock that I want to point out wascalled the Musulamii. In reading Dana Marniche's (Reynolds) portion of the bookGolden Age of the Moor, by Ivan Van Sertiman, she kept rendering the word asMusulinii. Not to mention that Runoko Rashidi, Wayne B. Chandler, nor Ivan VanSertima touched on this particular tribe. The Musulamii were a confederation ofBerber-speaking Gaetulian tribes, of the Mauri ethnos, who inhabited the desertregions of what is today Algeria, as well as the Roman province of MauretaniaCaesariensis, which was annexed to the Roman empire in 44 AD.” [32] Thisresearcher, though no proof has presented itself as of yet, hereby infers anconjecturable etymological point, that the word Moslem/Muslim is ultimatelyderived from this particular word and this particular confederation which wouldbecome a mixture of Moorish and mixed Moorish Roman blood. [I will give myreason and my findings in the book that I am constructing on this topic whileexpounding on this subject in detail.]

Herodotus calls the Gaetulian tribes Atlantaeans. Some of the “Libyan” tribes thatare mentioned by Herodotus are the Nasamones, Gindanes, Machlyes,Gamphasantes, Giligammae, Psylli, Atlantaeans, Lotophagii, Macae,Adyrmachidae and Auseans.” [33]. These tribes represent Ham and his dominionof the Northwest and the Southwest portions of Africa. This researcher hasconcluded that these Chaldeans/Babylonians are they who settled in the ancientcities of Canaan after the conditions there became unbearable. These representthe tribes that inhabited North Africa. Libya is of the Hamitic peoples who attimes held the throne of ancient Egypt. Shoshenq I, a Libyan of pure Moorish(Africoid) blood, sat upon the throne during the 22nd dynasty. Libyans werecalled Moors in the book “The Cambridge ancient history: The High Empire, A.D.70-192.” These facts as so stated above, also negates Wayne B. Chandler's claimin the book Golden Age of the Moor that the Libyans were a red haired blue eyedpeople of light skin.

Figure 2: Shoshenq I Pharaoh of Egypt during the 22nd dynasty shownclearly wearing the head band of the Canaanites with the Egyptian

Ureaus attached.

Many claim that the Amorites to be blonde hair and blue eyed peoples because ofthe early archaeologist Sayce attributing this name to those peoples. Thisresearcher is compiling compelling evidence to disprove Sayce's claim. Because

Page 13: Old Man Ham & Kush

of this find, King David is said to have had red hair and blue eyes. I present hereonly several of my findings to refute that claim as that particular field needs moreattention than I can give it at this time. “The Amorites are not Semites as manyprejudiced scholars assert, but they were Hamites, the descendants of Hamthrough Canaan.” (Gen 10:6 and 10:15-16) [34] “Others like the Nabataeans ofPetra were in fact known as Amorites until a late period. By Arabic historicaltraditions, there were descendants of Nimrod and Kush who were said to havecome to Jordan's Chatt El Arab area of present day Iraq or what was then knownas Babylon” – [35]

This conglomeration of tribes would form the dominion that would become knownas Mauretania or the Land of the Moors. This district, which was separated on theE. from Numidia, by the river Ampsaga, and on the S. from Gaetulia, by thesnowy range of the Atlas, was washed upon the N. coast by the Mediterranean,and on the W. by the Atlantic. From the earliest times it was occupied by apeople whom the ancients distinguished by the name MAURUSII (Strab. i. p.5, iii.pp. 131, 137, xvii. pp. 825, 827; Liv. 24.49; Verg. A. 4.206; Ptol. 4.1.11) orMAURI ( “Blacks,” in the Alexandrian dialect, Paus. i, 33 § 5, 8.43. [2.297] § 3;Sal. Jug. 19; Pomp. Mela, 1.4.3; Liv. 21.22, 28.17; Hor. Carm. 1.22. 2, 2.6. 3,3.10. 18; Tac. Ann. 2.52, 4.523, 14.28, Hist. 1.78, 2.58, 4.50; Lucan 4.678; Juv.5.53, 6.337; Flor. 3.1, 4.2); hence the name MAURETANIA (the proper form as itappears in inscriptions, Orelli, Inscr. 485, 3570, 3672; and on coins, Eckhel, vol.vi. p. 48; comp. Tzchucke, ad Pomp. Mela, 1.5.1) or MAURITANIA ( Ptol. 4.1.2;Caes. B.C. 1.6, 39; Hirt. B. Afr. 22; Pomp. Mela, 1.5; Plin. Nat. 5.1; Eutrop. 4.27,8.5; Flor. iv. (the MSS. and printed editions vary between this form and that ofMauretania); Strab. p. 827). These Moors, who must not be considered as adifferent race from the Numidians, but as a tribe belonging to the same stock,were represented by Sallust (Sal. Jug. 21) as a remnant of the army of Hercules,and by Procopius (B. V. 2.10) as the posterity of the Cananaeans who fled fromthe robber Joshua; he quotes two columns with a Phoenician inscription.Procopius has been supposed to be the only, or at least the most ancient, authorwho mentions this inscription, and the invention of it has been attributed tohimself; it occurs, however, in the history of Moses of Chorene (1.18), who wrotemore than a century before Procopius. The same inscription is mentioned bySuidas (s. v.), who probably quotes from Procopius.[36] “The name Maure as hasbeen said was first used for one of the several dozen ‘black’ tribes that occupiedNorth Africa even before the Christian era. The tribe itself included several clansincluding Mauri Mazazaces, Mauri Baueres, Mauri Bagoda and MauriGentiani.”[37] This statement, in this researcher eyes, reveals that it would havebeen oxymoron[ic] and hereby protests in antitheses the notion that Moor meansblack in any sense of the word. It would have been an oxymoron for the Greeksto call these tribes “Mauri Mazazaces, Mauri Baueres, Mauri Bagoda and MauriGentiani” as to suggest BLACK MAZAZACES, BLACK BAURES, BLACK BAGODA,AND BLACK GENTIANI without giving such names to signify 'lighter' branches ofthese tribes annexed to the tribal names. This researcher has found no suchproof nor does he ever intend to find any.

7. Their dominion and inhabitation extended from North-East and South-West Africa, across great Atlantis even unto the present North, South,and Central America and also Mexico and the Atlantis Islands; before thegreat earthquake, which caused the great Atlantic Ocean.

The Moorish presence has been documented by several authors and historiansfrom Ivan Van Sertima who wrote the book They came before Columbus,andDr. Barry Fell's Saga America, have been excellent sources for detailing the

Page 14: Old Man Ham & Kush

Moorish dominion of the Americas. I will not present all of the finds in thisparticular note but will assuredly put these finds in the upcoming book that weare compiling on this subject.

The Portuguese found maps and charts in their possession when they first camein contact with them [Arabian Cushites] on the coasts of East Africa, whichwere original and authentic. Some showed routes extending to the new worldlong before the age of Columbus. One early Portuguese map, gained from theseArabians marks South America, Western Africa and Southern Europe, as threeancient centers of civilization. The remains of primitive American nations giveforth relics, proving ancient Cushite communication. Before the arrival of thePortuguese, Arabian navigators had kept this knowledge secret. With decliningEthiopian power the links of this great chain had been broken to the Americasbut they still kept up the ancient lines of trade with the nations peculiarlyCushite, India, Chaldea, South Africa, and Western Europe.” [38]

The Prophet would also speak of Atlantis. He stated “Atlantis is going to riseagain.” On this point, I will turn your attention to an authentic manuscript thatwas written by the Mayans about 3,500 years ago:

“in the year 6 of Kan, the 11 Muluc, in the Month Zrc, terribleearthquakes occurred which continued without interruption until the 13Chuen. The country of 'the hills of clay,' the Atlantean land, wassacrificed. This land disappeared after two commotions during the night,after being constantly shaken by the subterranean fires, which made theland sink and re-appear various times and in diverse places. Finally, thesurface gave in and ten countries had split and disappeared. 64 million ofits inhabitants sank 8,000 years before this book was written.”

This is textually quoted from a Mayan manuscript called the Troano. Thismanuscript can be found in the British museum as part of the Le Plongeoncollection and by all accounts, is an authentic manuscript. This manuscript, doesfor this author, give validity to the accounts as given by Plato on those oldendays about the fate of Atlantis. To view the Troano manuscript, Click here.

The priests of the ancient Egyptian provincial capital of Sap-Meh (The NorthernShield, 5th Nome) called Sais by the Greeks, said to the Athenian Solon, indescribing the history and antiquity of Atlantis “You Greeks are novices in all theknowledge of antiquity. You are ignorant of what passed here or amongyourselves in the days of old. The history of eight thousand years is deposited inour sacred books, but we can ascend to much higher antiquity and tell you whatour fathers have done for nine thousand years. I mean their institutions, theirlaws, and their brilliant accomplishments.”Baldwin points out that neither Solonnor Plato thought this improbable. The Greeks could tell nothing of theirprogenitors and but little of the Pelasgian race that preceded them in Helleniclands. "There can be no doubt," says Baldwin, "that the Egyptians preserved oldrecords of the early period of their history extending beyond Menes." Thisknowledge was lost to our times by the destruction of the Alexandrian library andthe fanatical zeal which destroyed all pagan manuscripts”[39]

In the Timæus is a further description of Atlantis, supposedly given to Solon byan Egyptian priest and which concludes as follows: “But afterwards thereoccurred violent earthquakes and floods; and in a single day and night of rain all

Page 15: Old Man Ham & Kush

your warlike men in a body sank into the earth, and the island of Atlantis in likemanner disappeared, and was sunk beneath the sea. And that is the reason whythe sea in those parts is impassable and impenetrable, because there is such aquantity of shallow mud in the way; and this was caused by the subsidence ofthe island.” In the introduction to his translation of the Timæus, Thomas Taylorquotes from a History of Ethiopia written by Marcellus, which contains thefollowing reference to Atlantis: “For they relate that in their time there wereseven islands in the Atlantic sea, sacred toProserpine; and besides these, threeothers of an immense magnitude; one of which was sacred to Pluto, another toAmmon, and another, which is the middle of these, and is of a thousand stadia,to Neptune.” Crantor, commenting upon Plato, asserted that the Egyptian priestsdeclared the story of Atlantis to be written upon pillars which were stillpreservedcirca 300 B.C. (See Beginnings or Glimpses of Vanished Civilizations.)Ignatius Donnelly, who gave the subject of Atlantis profound study, believed thathorses were first domesticated by the Atlanteans, for which reason they havealways been considered peculiarly sacred to Poseidon. [40]

Pluto was Osiris. Ammon was Amen-Ra or Cush. The Greeks saw the Maures aneponym to the fabled Atlas. They named the mountain strip that stretches fromMorocco to Mauretania, the “Atlas Mountains.” As mentioned earlier, Herodotuscalled the biggest, fastest, and fiercest of the Maure (Moor) tribes, theGauletians, (Atlantaeans). These were the heroes of old, those who were found inEgyptian and Hittite inscriptions. These are they whom the Hebrew inscribersgave the eponymous name Ham to. The first part of the Atlantic ocean refers tothe “Sea of Atlas” and the term Atlantis refers to “Island of Atlas.” Thisresearcher asserts that, to better understand what happened with our people inthe ancient of days, we must understand and rightly interpret the Greekmythologies in full for they are accounts of those ancient Moors, the heroes ofold, given a coat of pale paint.

“This overlapping of the genealogy of antiquity shows that these heroes, Bel,Gilgamesh, Melcarth, Hercules, belonged to a common race. Belus (Nimrod), kingof Chaldea serves to unite the Chaldeans with the Old Race of the Upper Nile, asdoes their building the temple of Anu, another name of the original Cushitefamily. It was, for this reason that Greek and Armenian geographers applied thename of Ethiopia to Media, Persia, Susiana and Aria, or the entire region betweenthe Indus and Tigris in ancient days. The records of the Hebrews connected theChaldeans, Ethiopians and Egyptians in ties of kinship, and the findings ofarchaeological and philological research prove those records true. Rawlinsonmentions a Cushite inscription found in Susiana, in which there is a date goingback nearly to the year 3200 B. C. The language of later Babylon was Semitic butthat of the earlier Chaldean monarchy was different, as can be proved by theinscriptions upon the ruins. They are distinctly Hamitic and like the Himyaritic ofSouthern Arabia.”[41]

“Ur was built at the mouth of the Euphrates. It is now one hundred and fifty milesinland, the Persian Gulf having retired one foot in seventy years. Think to whatremote antiquity this assigns Chaldea. The great temple of the moon-god was theoldest in the country. Ra-Zeus-Ammon was considered the sun god. An earlierworship was of the moon. It was of the Soudan. The moon god was consideredfather of the sun god. Moon worship took precedence over sun worship; but asthe Cushite colonies grew stronger the worship of Ammon took precedence.Ammon-Ra was Cush. In the earliest ages the moon was considered king overthe lesser rulers. Chaldea was filled with temples of vast size dedicated to Istar

Page 16: Old Man Ham & Kush

and Bel, the Isis and Osiris of Egypt. Istar and Bel are the same exact Gods ofthe Levant or ancient Canaan. Ur rose to the leadership uniting the principalitiesof Chaldea. The hypothesis that Babylon was ruled by an Aryan dynasty wasstrictly contradicted by Berosus and the records disentombed from the ruins."Aryans," says Lenormant, "at this stage of the world had not yet crossed thegreat Sargartean desert." Chaldea could not have been Semitic for there wasdifference in race between Assyria and Babylonia.” [42]

When the sons of Lot, Moab and Ammon, migrated to Canaan, they establishedthe land of Ar which is no doubt the Hebrew corruption of the word Ur whichmeans “fire” in the Chaldean. These were Hamites. The Wolof term for Moor isNar[43] which is either an original Berber word, or ultimately derived from theArabic word Nuwr which means fire. Zeus, Jupiter-Ammon and Ham are one andthe same and they all derive from a source meaning fervent or sun burnt [44].

8. The River Nile was dredged and made by the ancient Pharaohs ofEgypt, in order to trade with the surrounding kingdoms. Also the Nigerriver was dredged by the great Pharaoh of Egypt in those ancient daysfor trade, and it extends eastward from the River Nile, westward acrossthe great Atlantic. It was used for trade and transportation.

The natural irrigation of the annual Nile inundations, between what is now Julyand October, would probably have allowed a single crop season over about two-thirds of the area covered by the flooding river. During the two millennia beforethe pharaonic ear began (c.a. 3000 B.C.), farmers extended the reach of theriver. They built terraced fields along the valley, dredged the natural overflowchannels that held floodwater in poinds after the level of the water had receded,dug ditches to breach the low points of natural levees, and lifted water directlyfrom ponds or channels by buckets or some sophisticated method. one of themore important artifacts of pre-Pharaonic Egypt is the romantically named“mace-head of the Scorpion King,” a fragment of limestone sceptor that shows awarrior monarch digging and irrigation ditch with a ceremonial hoe. (The scene isreminiscent of a modern-day photo opportunity with a politician digging up thefirst spadeful of earth on the foundation of new highway.)[45]

The Egyptians were master engineers. The Nile was diverted from its course tobuild Memphis. Houston says, based on her research, that “Menes, the warriorpriest of Upper Egypt, the older of the two countries, made a change in thechannel of the Nile” [46]. Menes may be attributed with the meandering portionof the Nile. No research is yet available on how the Niger was dredged however,we find an interesting correlative from when the Prophet states of the Niger “itextends eastward from the River Nile, westward across the great Atlantic. It wasused for trade and transportation.”

One point that had perplexed this writer was when Prophet Drew Ali said that theNiger River “extends eastward from the River Nile, westward across the greatAtlantic. It was used for trade and transportation.” I had to ask myself, how cana river stretch across an ocean? I had come to the conclusion that this riverobviously extended through the Atlantis Islands but then, I stumbled across anaccounting given by Mansa Musa, the great Sultan of Mali. His brother, who wasthe then sitting Sultan, Abu Bakari, took 3000 ships with him on a venture to theAmericas but only one ship came back. Mansa Musa relayed the story like this:

“They went away, and their absence was long: none came back, and theirabsence continued. Then a single ship returned. We asked its captain of their

Page 17: Old Man Ham & Kush

adventures and their news. He replied: 'Sultan, we sailed for a long while until wemet with what seemed to be a river with a strong current flowing in the opensea. My ship was last. The others sailed on, but as each of them came to thatplace [the river in the sea] they did not come back, nor did they reappear; and Ido not know what became of them. As for me, I turned where I was and did notenter that current.'”[47]

This is somewhat corroborated by the testimony of Montuzema as noted in theletters of Hernando Cortez:

“Long time have we been informed by the writings of our ancestors that neithermyself nor any of those who inhabit this land are natives of it, but ratherstrangers who have come to it from foreign parts. We likewise know that fromthose parts our nation was led by a certain lord (to whom all were subject),remained so long delaying his return that at his coming, those whom he had lefthad married the woman of the land and had many children by them and had builtthemselves cities in which they lived, so that they would in no wise return totheir own land nor acknowledge him as lord; upon which he left them.”[48]

From this accounting, we are not sure if Abu Bakiri left for the West African coastand did not make it however, the accounts of Montezuma gives credence to thefact that Moors did come from the east.

At this point, it is painfully obvious that Prophet Noble Drew Ali's version ofhistorical events, far surpass that of other historical exegetical accounts as givenby Christians, Orthodox Moslems and all of its various Moslem sects, and theHebrew descendants of Joshua. We are not here verifying our text by what is saideponymously, or by using etiological myths and presenting the correlativehistorical and archaeological in relation to characters in our text with theexception of Cush and Ham, but we are presenting works by notable scholarswho recorded the archaeogenetics of the ruins of the ancient monuments forverity of our religious text and it is upholding 100%.

9. According to all true and divine records of the human race there is nonegro, black, or colored race attached to the human family, because allthe inhabitants of Africa were and are of the human race, descendants ofthe ancient Canaanite nation from the holy land of Canaan.

This statement by Prophet Noble Drew Ali was made out of pure reason. First ofall, this researcher sees the color of his skin as clearly brown, not black. Theskullduggery used by the Europeans will go down in history and be applauded bythose seeking to use psychological advantages over other people. They call ourSpanish speaking peoples like the Mexicans, Cubans, and even Arabs, whom arelight complexioned, as brown people. Most of these peoples complexionresembles that of the Europeans just a few shades darker but not hardly brown.But they call these people brown. Look at your own skin and you can clearly seethat it is brown to an olive tone and not black if you are of Moorish Descent.There is no reason why I should call myself a black person. It was the Greekswho first called us “burnt faces” and “the blacks.” there is not one contemporarysource of ancient Moors who call themselves or their people a black people. Inlater times, some Moors of various nations accepted this term as the Greeksthemselves had a reverence for these so called “blacks” and viewed them asGods. Black-a-Moor was an offensive term and it was like saying “Nigger” today.It was the Portuguese whom first called us Negra. This name was used as title ofproperty as it is used today. The “black race” is a creation of a European

Page 18: Old Man Ham & Kush

psychology. By this lone provision, the Europeans rule these mindless people andthe world. There is no nation that we descend from called black. On the obverse,the pale skin nations of Europe have taken for themselves the title white. In noway are these people white, they are a palish pinkish, palish orangish color fromthe lack of melanin making their skin translucent so that we can see their blood.Here is an experiment, take a piece of black paper and hold it to your skin andsee if it matches up if indeed you call yourself black. Then take a piece of whitepaper and hold it next to a European's skin and see if they are white. When yourmind deceives you, it matters not what your eyes see. Show me one who is“black of skin” and I will produce a unicorn from out of my fez.

This writer cringes at such statements by some of our brightest scholars such as“black skinned” to describe our race. It lets this researcher know that Greek andRoman academia, which has persisted on till this day, has capped their victoryover our branch of this human race. He who wins the war writes the history andthey wrote of us as a black skinned people but I challenge all of these so calledblack and afro-centric scholars, researchers, theologians, archaeologists etc., toproduce one contemporary source prior to the Greek and Hellenestic contact withour peoples, who had accepted their designations of blackness for themselves, toproduce just one, contemporary source that shows any ancient inscribersspeaking of our people as a black skinned people in the singular or the thirdperson. Black has always been associated with death. Out of blackness comeswhiteness, purity, that which is worthy of the God(s) which has nothing to dowith the pale skin nations of Europe and their skin tone.

Never will you all drown out reason and truth. Reason is the faculty that comesdirectly from Allah and was anciently depicted anthropomorphically as Tehuti.Truth is Allah and that which we Moorish Americans call Aught and the HolyBreath (the triune Allah). Truth is the only thing in all of the worlds that changesnot.

Conclusion

It has given me great pleasure and esteem to be able to touch on this subjectand expound on it in the great detail of which I have undertaken above. Thepleasure comes from knowing that I have presented the truth to the peoplebased on my doctrine which can be corroborated by historians and gnostics alike.When I was a 5%er, and eventually a Nuwuabian, I could not with verity norsurety back up my doctrine with claims pertaining to anything historical inrelation to my doctrines at those times. My arguments were purely dogmaticbased upon myth, theory, and conjecture.

There are still several points of my doctrine that I am still researching like thename Amexem and if there is any documentation of the Pharaohs ceding landover to the Moabites and early Canaanites. I am currently reviewing the Armanaletters intensely and welcome all who may want to expound on this research, toshare their findings with me and my staff and/or offer their points of contention.

I leave you all in LOVE TRUTH PEACE FREEDOM AND JUSTICE.
