Literally nothing has ever happened below the red lineNo inventions, no written history, no works of art of philosophyJust nothingInsane to think about
>>18517167actually if you think about it hard enough then it makes perfect sense
akhi somalis are caucasian and huwite akhi, i xoog you jealous jareer abeed
>>18517167Just tell us you don't know how to read.>>18517179>omg the ZEBRAHS!Lmao
>>18517167I have a headcanon that the vandals would've seen the writing on the wall and got while the getting was good and hard migrated to modern day senegal where they would gradually btfo the africans by sheer will and manifest destiny their way through africa with the help of not trading literal gold for fucking salt.
>>18517260How tbe fuck do you post on a history board and not realize how important salt was for most of human history? It wasn't even just "trading" since salt was also used as a currency (ome of many) in the area. In general salt as a currency in human history has appeared in multple different areasm
>>18517301You're telling me nobody figured out how to harvest sea salt by the coast and relied entirely on the salt mines the desert nomads? The vandals knew how produce sea salt considering how when they took over the balearic island of ibiza kept and maintained the salt work facilities required to supply their new kingdom. They could've done the same in sub saharan africa and likely could've out produced the salt the happy salt merchants were making a killing off the africans. While everywhere else in europe was experiencing famine due to shitty soil harvests they would've thrived in senegal. Not to mention that even to this day the native locals of the region where mansa musa ruled have disdain for him that they tell his story as a warning to youth to not squander wealth for temporary goods. Skill issue unironically.
>>18517167Up until 6k years ago, that was also true of the rest of the planet.
>>18517167a 19th century british explorer reported an ugandan tribe that used a banana wine procedure to survive both the mother and child in c-sections (back then c-sections were a last resort when the mother is certain to die)around that time europeans were using chainsaws to annihilate women's bodies during childbirth
>>18517167As far as I know they can have some pretty neat spiritualism.Maybe all the competent people their just asend to godhood or something silly like that , or at least their lack of stuff is explained by that.Although that feels dishonest , this excuse only works on people who are actual shamans , and that was a small group of people.
>>18517311>You're telling me nobody figured out how to harvest sea salt by the coast and relied entirely on the salt mines the desert nomads?Because salt mines were located in multiple areas and land trade/travel/expansion was the primary focus. >They could've done the same in sub saharan africa and likely could've out produced the salt the happy salt merchants were making a killing off the africans.The salt merchants were also African anon. There's also salt mines in multple areas as said before, not sure why you keep downplaying how important salt was back in the day.>While everywhere else in europe was experiencing famine due to shitty soil harvests they would've thrived in senegalSpeculating about historical what-ifs is a total waste of time>Not to mention that even to this day the native locals of the region where mansa musa ruled have disdain for him that they tell his story as a warning to youth to not squander wealth for temporary goods.You made that up. More so when the decline of his staye occurred literal centuries after he passed but sure keep making up people in your head as sources.
>>18517311> Not to mention that even to this day the native locals of the region where mansa musa ruled have disdain for him that they tell his story as a warning to youth to not squander wealth for temporary goods.So you watched that retarded Mansa Musa video, eh? That was a very cherrypicked example and the opinion as a whole seems to be of relative recency; Ibn Khaldun spoke with a Qadi of Mali while Musa was still in living memory, and the Qadi had nothing negative to say about him during his telling of the areas' history and current events.
>>18517383> the Qadi had nothing negative to say about him during his telling of the areas' history and current events.Instead, foolish spending was attributed to Mansa Musa's grandson, Mari Jata, whose reign actually happens to coincide with Mali's fall. According to this Qadi, he was a total retard and tried stupid shit like sending Giraffes to North Africa (which he eventually succeeded in) and selling 2 tons of gold for less than it was worth to pay off debts.
>>18517400> Mari Jata*Mari Jata the second
>>18517400>Mari Jata, whose reign actually happens to coincide with Mali's fall.A ~300 year fall?
>>18517426My bad, he really just marked the beginning of the states decline.>>18517400I should also correct myself here, it was specifically said to be a 20 qintar boulder of gold, and the qintar can vary in amount and sometimes just means "a lot". If I'm not mistaken, it was really anywhere from 0.992 to 5.653 tons of gold.
>>18517167Or maybe their legacy was destroyed like Central Asia, Mesopotamia, Anatolia
>>18517318>Up until 6k years ago, that was also true of the rest of the planet.wow, so smart.
>>18517260> kid named malaria
>>18517167you have to go back >>>/pol/
>>18517167If you can just live off the land by hunting once a week and cold is never a threat and thus you never have to make clothes, and the big old farming civiliizations are too far away to be much of a threat, what incentive is there for you to innovate if you run around all day naked and kill an animal or two?I'm sure there were a couple of autismo tribesmen who thought of an interesting invention or two but were probably ridiculed for being tryhards.

>>18517167Pretty much
>>18517470That sir looks aryan
>>18517167It's happening right as we speak.
>>18517167As far as I can tell, they didn't even invent chairs. The most they got was stools.
>>18517627"Black" is a blanket term for the various sub-saharan races, of which Cushites are apart of.
>>18517627The modern ones are essentially negroes more or less.My understanding is that these peoples pretend to be equivalent to the ancient Cushites, which were a semitic people group that existed in ancient times in southern Arabia that colonized parts of the horn of Africa, and that was called Ethiopians by the Greeks. Basically the modern Ethiopian blacks are full on we wuzzing as those ancient semitic population groups.In reality they're entirely unrelated negroid peoples and are actually descended from Nilotic or Bantu-speaking tribes instead. Their ancestors may very well have had a hand in genociding the actual Ethiopians that the ancient Greeks wrote about - before they started pretending to be them, due to wanting to claim their legacy. That's my understanding of the situation anyway.
>>18519503Ignoring your retarded bait, I don't get why the Khoekhoe look so Niger-Congo in that artwork.
>>18517167What is it about the color green that causes this?
>>18519503>they didn't even invent chairsMost people didn't or copied it if truth be told. They did have chair like things but for specific purposes. The whole "didn't invent chairs" lime is so contrived because you can say the same for any group that say didn't even couches or creating a surgical process to do c-sections.
>>18519518Good question, couldn't tell you to be sure.
>>18517697See >>18517225.>>18519516How the fuck are Cushites semites? You literally have no idea what any of these terms mean lol. White supremacists truly have no shame.
>>18519521Well it's more like they just didn't have them until they were introduced relatively modernly. Similar thing for stuff like actual scripts for writing words down, boats and stuff like that. These things were never invented natively in SSA, even though people like to wax on about how "opulent" everything was.
>>18519529> boatsThey semi-famously independantly developed (and for a good while, stopped at) canoes, though they immediately started trying make sailboats upon simply seeing European ships.
>>18519529>Similar thing for stuff like actual scripts for writing words downMany groups had that.>boats and stuff like that.Many had that. River travel, costal travel, ocean travel all existed on the continent in various forms.>These things were never invented natively in SSALatin script wasn't a "native" invention, pretty much most scripts came as a spin off of Hieroglyphs. Japanese and many groups in the sinopshere made use of the Chinese logograms and several still do. It seems pretty disingenuous to somehow forget how that line applies equally as much to the entire globe/human history.
>>18519525Too bad they wasn't intelligent enough to invent smartphones?
>>18519554That's turning out to be not such a smart invention after all.
>>18519556Smartphones are an amazing technology. It's the way people typically use them, and especially social media companies, which are rotten.I can look up whatever info I want online, figure out where I am with GPS, message or call someone, read an e-book, etc. It's pretty fuckin amazing. I don't use any social media, so I don't get enslaved. All benefits for me.
>>18519516Kek. They have a Reddit page where they wewuz as South Arabians. You won't find a North African or even West African genetics Reddit page because they troll there, the Nafris stop these subversive Horny fags from claiming Egypt and the Niggers push them to subvert Yemen so that they can claim the Arabs wuz black and even claim the Semites wuz black.
>>18517167Isn't that true for every country outside of the Mediterranean up until the Middle Ages?
>>18517167IDK, Ethiopian history was pretty interesting until about the 20th century. >>18517742Also Rwanda making Congo its bitch will never not be hilarious and absolute cinema.
>>18517167If out of Africa theory is true (which is scientific consensus) then the inhabitants of that area are less evolved humans. That explains the lack of written records, art and inventions.
>>18519518some khoisan are mixed
>>18521009>then the inhabitants of that area are less evolved humansTIL that time froze in Africa. Yet another discovery by the 4chan experts which is suppressed by scientists.
>>18519518They look Asian, which probably means that epicanthic fold is ancestral to homo sapiens, which means that it actually disappeared in Western Eurasians rather than independently evolved in East Asians.
>>18521023Time doesn't need to "freeze", simply staying in the same environment as usual makes evolution slower than moving in a foreign one.Negroes have a lot in common with primitive hominids phenotypically (black skin, afro-textured hair, large flat nose, prognathism...)
>>18521109>>18521009> less evolved humansLess derived, not "less evolved". You could only say this is true in reference to the recent selection spurred by the neolithic and civilization, both things blacks have *somewhat* limited experience with.You're also ignoring that there has actually been gene-flow into SSA; Pygmys are 5% eurasian and the Yoruba 7%. The Khoisan go as low as 1% but peak at 14%.> prognathismThis is the only thing you mentioned that actually implies something not skin-deep.> artThey weren't lacking this at all, lol.> same environment as usual makes evolution slower than moving in a foreign oneEvolutionary pressures do become stronger in such a case, but they rarely remain the same.
>>18521109>Negroes have a lot in common with primitive hominids phenotypically (black skin, afro-textured hair, large flat nose, prognathism...)Iirc melanesians and abbos are the closest race to ancestral homo sapiens in terms of phenotype
>>18521109>staying in the same environment as usual makes evolution slower than moving in a foreign one.Thats not how evolution works you high school dropout
>>18520842Wow social media slop. Who the fuck cares, you had to go on reddit just to prove your "point".
>>18517167What about the artefacts and relics in the museums? Is it only "history" if it is locked up a museum or used as a storage of wealth and speculation in a private collection?
>>18521366>Stop posting pictures in my 4chan science forumYeah I can prove my point with any material to bust your 4chan cope
>>18521503What the fuck are you browning on about? Like this isn't a 4chan thing, who the fuck uses mentally ill subreddits as evidence of anything?
