New Book Says African Prophetesses May Be Original Author of Bible
Prophecies

ancient times, any symbol of these African prophetess' were consider Good-luck,
and protection from dying in battle.
Martinez, GA (BlackNews.com) - Author, Vivian Hunter-Hindrew claims in
her well researched, ground breaking new book, "The Sibyls: The First
Prophetess' of Mami (Wata)", that for 6,000 years, Africa was ruled by a
powerful order of matriarchs known throughout the ancient world as
"Sibyls." Hindrew contends that the Sibyls produced the world's first
prophetic oracles, prophetess' and prophets.
Believed to be the actual priestesses of Isis, Hunter-Hindrew asserts
that the Sibyls were known as "Pythoness," because their oracle
source was a mighty ancestral python that "spoke" prophecy to them
during trance possession. "It was the Sibyls who built and worked the
powerful oracles in the African Egyptian colonies of ancient Greece, Rome,
Turkey, Israel, Syria and Babylon."
The most famous of these temples was the (later renamed) "Temple of
Amon" in ancient Libya, and the "Temple of Delphi" (meaning
"dolphin") at Dodona and Delos, in the Grecian islands, the Mattani
Empire in ancient Asia Minor, (now Turkey), and the great mother temple
Bethlehem in ancient Israel. Hunter-Hindrew claims that their holy temples were
more numerous than the Christians churches of today. According to
Hunter-Hindrew, "many of the first Christian churches were created by
either assimilating, or were built atop the temple ruins of the Sibyls."
She further contends that in ancient Rome, the Sibyls were the first to
establish the "holy seat" of the Vatican. They were celebrated and
respected as advisors to the world's heads of state. "The Romans even
credit a famous Sybil named "Cimeria" with prophesying the birth of
Julius Caesar and his nephew Augustus."
The famous Roman augur/diviner Navius, speaks about Cimeria in his book
on the Punic Wars. Known as great healers. Hunter-Hindrew claims that
"centuries before Christ, the Sibyls cured epileptics, the blind, lepers
and 'casted out demons,'and even called-up the dead." It was a Sibyl, who
called-up the spirit of the Apostle Samuel to speak to him from the dead. The
worlds military leaders never entered into battle unless they first consulted
the Sibyls for advice. However, during the Inquisitions, the Sibyls were
condemned as "harlots, and witches, and their temples seized, destroyed or
converted into Churches,. The Christians copying and crediting themselves as
the original authors of their sacred texts, prophesies, architecture and many of
their holy rites."
Hunter-Hindrew claims that during the inquisitions, the Sibyls were
mercilessly persecuted by the now established Roman Church, and condemned as
"pagans." However, their "pagan" prophecies were later
collected by the Roman Emperor, Tarquin and compiled into numerous biblical
books and credited to bogus male prophets. "The Sibyls preserved their
history in poetic and prophetic prose that would later be used as the basis for
Greek and Roman tragedies." Hunter-Hindrew believes that it was these books
that were eventually seized by the emerging Roman papal to create a western
theological foundation in order to compete with the Kemetically learned
levitical Jews. Hunter-Hindrew concludes that the Sibyl prophecies would later
lay the ecclesiastical foundation for the collection of apocryphal books
modified as the "Christian" Bible." She believes also that
"the New Testament is actually a historical chronicle of the final
destruction of these ancient Sibyl temples, and the forced imposition of a
"new theology" revised by church officials from the more ancient
books of the Sibyls and others." Nonetheless, the tradition of the Sibyls
lives on in the West African ancestral tradition known as the
"Amengansies." A tradition actually brought to the New World via the
slaves. It along with all African based-faiths was violently suppressed with
the passing of laws across the nation forbidding its practice.
"If the African Diaspora want to learn why they are mysteriously
absent from Western 'biblical' prophesy, and history, they might want to
explore their spiritual roots more thoroughly to learn just who their ancient
mothers and fathers really are," Hunter-Hindrew reports. This book is a
start in that direction.
