Europe Conquered

 

Black Celts (Silures) & Black Vikings vexed with the Scandinavia people.  A prominent Viking of the eleventh century was Thorhall, who was aboard the ship that carried the early Vikings to the shores of North America. Thorhall was "the huntsman in summer and in winter the steward of Eric the Red.  He was a large man and strong, black, and like a giant, silent, and foul-mouthed in his speech, and always egged on Eric to the worst; he was a bad Christian."

 

Another Viking, more notable than Thorhall, was Earl Thorfinn, "the most distinguished of all the earls in the Islands."  Thorfinn ruled over nine earldoms in Scotland and Ireland, and died at the age of seventy-five.  His widow married the king of Scotland. Thorfinn was described as "one of the largest men in point of stature, and ugly, sharp featured, and somewhat tawny, and the most martial looking man. It has been related that he was the foremost of all his men."

 

The black blood type is common even in Nordic Europe where intermixing has been happening since antiquity. 

Black slavery lasted in England for about 400 years (1440-1834), during which time much intermixing occurred.  

According to RUNOKO RASHIDI, Ancient African people, sometimes called Moors, are known to have had a significant presence and influence in early Rome.  African soldiers, specifically identified as Moors, were actively recruited for Roman military service and were stationed in Britain, France, Switzerland, Austria, Hungary, Poland and Romania.  Many of these Africans rose to high rank.  Lusius Quietus, for example, was one of Rome's greatest generals and was named by Roman Emperor Trajan (98-117 C.E.) as his successor.  Quietus is described as a "man of Moorish race and considered the ablest soldier in the Roman army."

 

I turned around and saw a marvelous bust of Septimius Severus.  And then I saw busts and statues of Septimius' two sons--Geta and Caracalla and they all looked Africoid too, some more so than others.  I had stumbled (or was I divinely led?) into a room that I had no prior knowledge of filled with these images of African looking Roman emperors! 

This dynasty, known to historians as the Severan Dynasty, began with the accession to the throne of Septimius Severus in 193 C.E.  In actuality, Septimius shared the throne for two years with a certain Pesennius Niger.  Indeed, could Pesennius Niger, another of Rome's outstanding military commanders, himself have been an African?  His name certainly indicates the possibility.

Records state that Septimius was born in Leptis Magna on the North African coast (modern day Libya) on April 11, 146 C.E.  And Septimius was not just born in Africa.  Numerous pictures, busts and statues of him show him to be Black. 

Young Septimius, coming from a family of Romanized Africans, received a education rooted in Roman literature and quickly learned to speak Latin.  After his formal education was completed he adopted an official career and became a civil magistrate.  Later, he became a military commander, and this took him to Rome where he proved himself an able and popular and conscious military leader.  He is even said to have built a marble tomb for Hannibal Barca--early Rome's African nemesis.

Among other things, Septimius had a mighty arch constructed in the Roman Forum and even journeyed back to Africa, including Egypt, around 203 C.E.  Can you imagine Emperor Septimius sailing on the Nile?  Imagine what he might have thought as he gazed at the pyramids and walked through the Karnak and Luxor temples. 

 

After a distinguished career often characterized by one military exploit after another, Septimius died conducting yet another military campaign, this one in York in Britain, on February 4, 211 C. E. at the age of sixty-five, after a reign of seventeen years, eight months and three days..

Septimius Severus was succeeded in 211 by his sons Lucius Septimius Geta (211-212 C.E.) and Marcus Aurelius Antoninus aka Caracalla (211-217 C.E.).  They were in turn followed by Marcus Opellius Macrinus (217-218 C.E.) and Heliogabalus (218-222 C. E.), and then Severus Alexander (222-235 C.E.), with whose reign the dynasty culminated and who restored the Roman Coliseum to its ancient status.  

This line is known as the Severan Dynasty and the National Roman Museum busts and statues and sculptures of the representatives of this dynasty strongly testify to their African identity.  They are powerful images and like the statues and busts and sculptures of ancient Egypt I found the noses missing on all of them save one of Septimius' son Caracalla.  And the face adorning the bust of Severus Alexander, the last member of the dynasty, is even more Africoid looking than that of Septimius Severus, the dynasty's founder.

Europe (Ancient Rome) Conquered by Africans

Poseidonia is an ancient city in southern Italy near the west coast, 22 miles southeast of modern Salerno and 5 miles south of the Sele (ancient Silarus) River. Paestum is noted for its splendidly preserved Greek temples. Poseidonia was probably founded about 600 B.C. by Greek colonists from Sybaris, along the Gulf of Taranto, and it had become a flourishing town by 540; judging from its temples.

 After many years' resistance the city came under the domination of the Lucanians (an indigenous Etruscan or Black Gaul people) sometime before 400 BC, after which its name was changed to Paestum.







The Temple of Peace in the forum is a Corinthian-Doric building begun perhaps in the 2nd century B.C. Traces of a Roman amphitheatre and other buildings, as well as intersecting main streets, have also been found. The circuit of the town walls, which are built of travertine blocks and are 15–20 feet thick, is about 3 miles in circumference. In July 1969 a farmer uncovered an ancient Lucanian tomb that contained Greek frescoes painted in the early classical style. Paestum's archaeological museum contains these and other treasures from the site. Below are Frescoes from Lucanian Tombs.


Hannibal, the father of military strategy, performed the astounding feat of crossing the Alps on elephants in 218 B.C.  With only 26,000 of his original force of 82,000 troops remaining, Hannibal defeated Rome, the mightiest military power of the age, who had a million men, in every battle for the next fifteen years.  His tactics are still taught in leading military academies of the U.S., Europe & other lands. 

 Black rulership of the Roman Empire begins in 193 A.D

 With African born, Roman Emperor Septimus Severus.  There were four other Black emperors after the Severus dynasty. 

 

Moors in Ancient Europe

St. Maurice The Moor

St. Maurice and The Moors of Europe

The Moors

By RUNOKO RASHIDI
 

It would not be inaccurate to say that the Moors helped reintroduce Europe to civilization.  But just who were the Moors of antiquity anyway?  As early as the Middle Ages, and as early as the seventeenth century, "The Moors were," according to the Oxford English Dictionary, "commonly supposed to be mostly black or very swarthy, and hence the word is often used for negro."  Dr. Chancellor Williams stated that "The original Moors, like the original Egyptians, were Black Africans."

At the beginning of the eighth century Moorish soldiers crossed over from Africa into Spain, Portugal, and France, where their swift victories became the substance of legends.  To the Christians of early Europe there was no question regarding the ethnicity of the Moors, and numerous sources support the view that the Moors were a black-skinned people.  Morien, for example, is the adventure of a heroic Moorish knight supposed to have lived during the days of King Arthur.  Morien is described as "all black:  his head, his body, and his hands were all black."  In the French epic known as the Song of Roland the Moors are described as "blacker than ink."

William Shakespeare used the word Moor as a synonym for African. Christopher Marlowe used African and Moor interchangeably.  Arab writers further buttress the Black identity of the Moors.  The powerful Moorish emperor Yusuf ben-Tachfin is described by an Arab chronicler as "a brown man with wooly hair."

Black soldiers, specifically identified as Moors, were actively recruited by Rome, and served in Britain, France, Switzerland, Austria, Hungary, Poland, and Romania.  St. Maurice, patron saint of medieval Europe, was only one of many Black soldiers and officers under the employ of the Roman Empire.

After the invasion of 711 came other waves of Moors even darker.  It was this occupation of Portugal which accounts for the fact that even noble families had absorbed the blood of the Moor.

 

From that time onwards, racial mixing in Portugal, as in Spain, and elsewhere in Europe which came under the influence of Moors, took place on a large scale.  That is why historians claim "Portugal is in reality a Negroid land," and that when Napoleon explained that "Africa begins at the Pyrenees," he meant every word that he uttered.  Even the world-famed shrine in Portugal, Fatima, where Catholic pilgrims from all over the world go in search of miracle cures for their afflictions, owes its origin to the Moors.  The story goes that a Portuguese nobleman was so saddened by the death of his wife, a young Moorish beauty whom he had married after her conversion to the Christian faith, that he gave up his title and fortune and entered a monastery.  His wife was buried on a high plateau called Sierra de Aire.  It is from there the name of Fatima is derived.

The Moors ruled and occupied Lisbon and the rest of the country until well into the twelfth century.  they were finally defeated and driven out by the forces of King Alfonso Henriques, who was aided by English and Flemish crusaders.  The scene of this battle was the Castelo de Sao Jorge or, in English, the Castle of St. George.  Today it still stands overlooking the city of "Lashbuna"--as the Moors named Lisbon.

 The 13th century Middle Dutch Arthurian tale Morien tells the tale of a son of a Knight of the Round Table. As the folklore goes, Aglovale–one of King Arthur’s knights–travels in the Moorish lands while searching for Lancelot. There he falls in love with a Moorish princess who gives birth to a son, Morien. Years later, while searching for the Holy Grail, Arthur’s knights encounter a grown Morien:

On the ninth day there came riding towards them a knight on a goodly steed, and well armed withal. He was all black, even as I tell ye: his head, his body, and his hands were all black, saving only his teeth. His shield and his armour were even those of a Moor, and black as a raven….[he] bared his head, which was black as pitch; that was the fashion of his land–Moors are black as burnt brands.

Unlike other depictions of black-a-moors as threatening, Morien’s blackness, though frequently mentioned, is not used as a negative qualifier. In fact, as if making this point to medieval readers, the epic states: “But in all that men would praise in a knight was he fair, after his kind. Though he were black, what was he the worse?”
Even more popular than Morien, was Saint Maurice-the Knight of the Holy Lance. Said to be a member of the Theban Legion in ancient Rome, Maurice attains knighthood when he refuses to massacre a group of Christians. It’s likely the tale of St. Maurice was a fabrication of Theodore, Bishop of Octodurum, sometime around the late 4th century. Maurice appears as a religious figure and is revered as early as 460AD. By the 10th century, he is a patron saint of the Holy Roman Emperors. Whatever the case of his existence, his depiction in the medieval world was variable. In some artwork he is European; in Coptic Egypt he is brown-skinned; but in other works, he is distinctly a black-a-moor. A black Saint Maurice can be found in the Cathedral of Magdeburg, Germany, next to the grave of the 10th century Holy Roman Emperor, Otto I. As late as the 16th century, the German painter Matthias Grünewald in his work the “Meeting of Saint Erasmus of Formiae and Saint Maurice,” depicts the saint as a black-a-moor in medieval European armor.

Buddha -- Prince of Naga Clan

ANCIENT BLACK BUDDHA

The statues of ancient Buddahs of the East depected him as having wolly hair is always shown in corn rows, or in a pepper corn style with small tight curls. Original statues of Buddha clearly show him to be Africoid, with the wide nose, thick lips and frizzy, nappy, hair which are distinctive Negro characteristics. In most ancient temples throughout Asia where he is still worshipped, he is shown as  jet Black. In fact, in most of the ancient temples of Asia and India, statues of the gods and goddesses have Africoid features with woolly hair in the pepper corn style, while some even have dreadlocks. These pictures of Buddha portray him in no uncertain terms as a Negro with kinky, coiled hair, a flat nose and full lips






 

There are absolutely no historical records that portray Buddha as Aryan or White.
The first people who conceptualized and worshipped the divine image of the Negroid mould of humanity were the Negroes, and they actually started the practice of Buddhism, the world's first missionary religion.
Buddha was an Enlightened Master from the Sakya clan of the Naga Race, and was the first man on earth to preach the great principles of equality, liberty and fraternity. He caused the Nagas to become conscious of their own mind power as opposed to the mantra power.
Buddhism, whose doctrines include the Golden Rule, was established 500 years before Christianity in the area now called the Middle East (Africa). Buddha is not a name but a title meaning Enlightened One, Blessed One, or to Become awake. Over the centuries, there have been several recorded Buddhas like Gautama, Sakayanumi, and Siddhartha. Black Buddhist missionaries introduced Buddhism to China, Japan and other countries.
It is clear therefore that Buddhism did not start in Japan nor China, yet it is professed and practiced by millions of devotees throughout Asia. Under the Black King Ashoka, the religion of this Negro God was spread throughout Europe, even into the remotest parts of Britain. Buddhism actually started on the India Continent where the first inhabitants were Black people who had migrated from Ethiopia some 50,000 years earlier, establishing what is known as the Indus Valley Civilization.
There were two types of Blacks from Africa who created the first civilization of mankind. One was the Nubian, who had broad features and Woolly, Nappy hair, while the other had the aquiline nose with straight hair,(Dravidian) but both were early descendents straight out of Black Africa.
Modern Black people of Southern India.This Negrito or Ethiopian Black initiated the first migration out of Africa. The next migration was by the Australian Aboriginal. Intermixing between the two groups produced the people of the Indus Valley, then the Paleo Mongoloid race or the Mediterranean Black Mongoloid also came and intermixed, and together, these types made up what is known as India (which means Black). During the time of the Buddha 2,500 years ago (500 B.C.), Black-African people were in the seat of world power, but about 500 years ago the Aryans invaded Northern India causing the native inhabitants to seek sanctuary in the southern areas of India. Battles for supremacy in the Indus Valley between these savage white barbarians and the indigenous Blacks for control of the Black lands lasted for over 1,000 years, and were recorded in The Rig Veda in the form of hymns, which were actually prayers to white Gods to defeat the Blacks. Being unable to defeat the Black Nagas outright because of their advanced military tactics, these nomadic Ayans resorted to corrupting and distorting the Ancient Texts written by the Blacks to create this racist colour caste as a last resort to dominate the Blacks. This corrupted version of the Black's religion (varna system), ensured their superiority while suppressing the Blacks, in much the same way that their European cousins did later through Christianity and Judaism.These nomadic, uncivilized, barbaric tribes of whites who invaded India were in fact civilized by the Blacks, but like their Greek relatives, these whites overthrew the Blacks and destroyed their magnificent civilization.
