Description

As the oldest Nile Valley Civilization, the Ta-Seti Civilization should also be regarded as one of Pre-Colonial Africa’s greatest contributions to world Civilization. The Nile River delta was also an ideal growing location for the papyrus plant. Ancient Egyptians used the papyrus plant in many ways, such as making cloth, boxes, and rope, but by far its most important use was in making paper. Besides using the river's natural resources for themselves and trading them with others, early Egyptians also used the river for bathing, drinking, recreation, and transportation. The Nile was such a focal point to the ancient Egyptians that their calendar began the year with the first month of the flooding. The Egyptian religion even venerated a deity of flooding and fertility, Hapy, who was depicted as a chubby man with blue or green skin.

According to the UN’s Food And Agriculture Organization, ancient Egyptian farmers were one of the first groups to practice agriculture on a large scale, growing food crops such as wheat and barley, as well as industrial crops such as flax for making clothing. To get the most out of the Nile's waters, ancient Egyptian farmers developed a system called basin irrigation. They constructed networks of earthen banks to form basins, and dug channels to direct floodwater water into the basins, where it would sit for a month until the soil was saturated and ready for planting. During his career in the 1980s, Dr. Ben’s was well known for leading guided tours to Kemet and the Nile Valley Civilizations (Nubia, Sudan, Ethiopia). His tours were 15-day trips in Afrika. They were called “Dr. Ben’s Alkebu-Lan Educational Tours.” According to Dr. Ben’s research, Alkebulan was an ancient name for Afrika.

C. Mauch and T. Zeller, eds. Rivers in History: Perspectives on Waterways in Europe and North America (University of Pittsburgh Press, 2008). In His Book…browder Has Associated Himself With Some Top-level Academic Company. He Is Both A Teacher And A Learner. In Both Cases He Has Done Well. Dr. John Henrik Clarke From The Introduction. These Nubian Kushite artefacts such as an incense burner, a Palace facade, and a King wearing the Southern Nubian Kushite Crown sitting on a Throne in a boat bearing the Royal standard of the Falcon God Horus suggest that s ince a unified Nubian Monarchy was already established at Ta-Seti by 3 800 BC, Ta Seti is the oldest Nile Valley Civilization and it provided the Template for Egyptian Kingship once Upper and Lower Egypt were later united under Narmer’s Dynasty. Exploding the Myths shines when Browder focuses on what he has lived and breathed: the field of Egyptology. His overview of the Dynastic period and their culture - along with his tidbits of surprise information- is breathtaking and extensive. From their rise to their fall, he acts as a muse for history, stopping along at key moments to contemplate various details, such as their mark on other civilizations, including our own. He's a tour guide, and we are the tourists that he clearly enjoys spending time with.

Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long upon the land which the Lord your God is giving you.” However, as the name suggests, Browder is more concerned with reclaiming and defending the most famous of Afrikan civilizations: the people of Kemet. Thus, those looking for a more general survey of Afrikan contributions will be unsatisfied. Of course, the success of this book also brings to light other questions and cultural dilemmas that still have not been answered, which I will pose.

Dr Yosef A.A. ben Jochannan seated in the middle of legendary history scholars Dr. Ivan Van Sertima and Dr. John Henrik Clarke on Gil Noble’s talk show ‘Like It Is.’ Gil Noble was a pioneering Afrikan American journalist on ABC news in NYC. As such, the importance of the Ancient Egyptian Nile Valley Civilization of Kemet reveals the important contributions of Pre-Colonial Africa to World Civilization. The Nile River Is One Of The Most Well-known Rivers In The World. The Nile River Valley Was Vital To The Success Of Several Ancient Civilizations. The Nile River Allowed The Earliest Civilizations To Flourish In Spite Of The Surrounding Harsh Desert Climate. The Nile River Valley Includes Not Just The River, But The Surrounding Banks And Low Lands That Benefit From The River Flooding. Evidence of the Ta-Seti Kingship in Ancient Nubia from the Qustul Tombs and Narmer Palette means Ta-Seti predates Ancient Egypt. When the Greek historian Herodotus wrote that the ancient Egyptians' land was "given them by the river," he was referring to the Nile, whose waters were essential to the rise of one of the world’s earliest great civilizations.
