Agriculture Originated In Africa
The Creator put humans into Africa first.
“Count Volney gives the following description of the scientific achievements of
the ancient Ethiopians, and of how they mapped out the signs of the zodiac on the star-spangled dome of the heavens:
Should it be asked at what epoch this system took its birth, we shall answer on the testimony of the monuments of astronomy itself, that its principles appear with certainty to have been established about seventeen thousand years ago, and if it be asked to what people it is to be attributed, we shall answer that the same monuments, supported by unanimous traditions, attribute it to the first tribes of Egypt; and reason finds in that country all the circumstances which could lead to such a system; when it finds there a zone of sky, bordering on the tropic, equally free from the rains of the equator and the fogs of the north; when it finds there a central point of the sphere of the ancients, a salubrious climate, a great but manageable river, a soil fertile without art or labor, inundated without morbid exhalations, and placed between two seas which communicate with the richest countries; it conceives that the inhabitant of the Nile, addicted to agriculture from the facility of communications, to astronomy from the state of his sky, always open to observation, must have been the first to pass from the savage to the social state; and consequently to attain the physical and moral sciences necessary to civilized life.”
It was, then, on the borders of the upper Nile, among a black race of men, that was organized the complicated system of the worship of the stars, considered in relation to the productions of the earth and the labors of agriculture.” (1)
From Africa, the planet was populated with all humans in existence today. From Africa, civilization was also formed and spread to the rest of the world. As part of civilization, agriculture was formed and spread to the rest of the world.
Agriculture did not originate in China not in Asia not in the Indus Valley not in the Fertile Crescent not between the Tigris and the Euphrates Rivers not in South or Central America with Mayans, Aztecs, Incas, Peruvians and not with the usage of “three sisters” planting.
A Few Of Many Ways Of Estimating The Origin
(A)
Astronomy and the Zodiac go back to at least 55,000 BCE. This is the minimum starting date for the origin of agriculture. We can also examine the accomplishments in all other sciences and arts and it is a certainty, we shall find evidence of much earlier starting dates for the invention of agriculture.
(B) There are two
Great Year Ages occurring simultaneously. Both of these ages are caused by Earth's movements in relation to the movement of other celestial bodies. A complete cycle is approximately 26,000 years and is measured by the changes in the positions of constellations.
If we assign a very minimum date for human existence to 500,000 years ago, there have been 19 periods of 26,000 years each. Each of these periods contain two simultaneous Great Years; therefore there has been at least 38 periods where constellations have changed. Constellations, of course, affect all things. These constellations affect the energies and lives on Earth. The constellations affect life cycles. These constellations affect the growth and development of humans and all other creatures. The constellations affect the shift in consciousness of understanding the cycles of life. These cycles foster the understanding of agriculture (plant domestication), animal domestication and human development.
Due to the continuous revealing of historical information, it is no longer credible to believe that 37 and one-half constellation cycles took place before humans were influenced to gain understanding of agriculture even though these constellation changes were influencing them and everything else daily, monthly and yearly over and over again in largely consistent ways and these humans were developing calendars and everything else by paying attention to these cycles. The origin of agriculture took place much earlier than 12,000 or even 22,000 years ago.
According to Ancestor ben-Jochannan, “Along the Nile, there were two groups of Africans; the "Hutu" and "Twa" who take us back into at least 400,000 BCE in terms of artifacts. Among the Hutu and Twa were artifacts such as the “Ankh,” the "Crook" and "Flail."
The importance of the above paragraph is that humans do not move on to higher order things until food sources are secured. Ancestor Barashango reminds us
agriculture is the foundation of moving from hunter-gather to being sedentary and thus having the time and thought energy to developing civilization. This tells us that the Hutu and Twa were agriculturalists 400,000 years ago. Africans were doing many things in all areas of civilization such as mining metals, smelting iron, developing calendars, building cities and formulating all the basic sciences, including moral sciences. Before humans on a civilized path would concern themselves with stars, they would concern themselves with the seeds of daily needs and develop an agricultural system first.
Furthermore, the flow of energy in the galaxy comes from the center of the galaxy, its birthplace. As above so below, the flow of energy on Earth comes from central Africa near the origin of the Hapi River, humanity's birthplace. These living Hapi waters flow through Africa and so did knowledge and understanding flow as nutrients along this waterway. The Hutu and Twa were diminutive in physical size but not in strength of understanding. It is unlikely, that these much shorter people could have survived as hunter-gatherers.
Humans grew up and out of the Hapi River Valley as surely as plants grow from seed, yet their main roots remain where first planted. The Hutu and Twa understood these correlations and developed agriculture in Africa at least 400,000 years ago before they figured out how to develop the Ankh.
Conclusion
“Egypt and Western Asia tell the same story. 'In each case we have a standard or measuring-rod of authentic historical record,' declares Samuel Laing, of certainly not less than 8,000 and more probably 9,000 or 10,000 years, from the present time; and in each case we find ourselves at this remote date, in the presence, not of rude beginnings, but of
a civilization already ancient and far advanced. We have populous cities, celebrated temples, an organized priesthood,
an advanced state of agriculture and of the industrial and fine arts;
writing and books so long known that their origin is lost in myth; religions in which advanced philosophical and moral ideas are already developed; astronomical systems which imply a long course of accurate observations. How long this prehistoric age may have lasted, and how many centuries it may have taken to develop such a civilization, from the primitive beginnings of Neolithic and Paleolithic origins, is a matter of conjecture. All we can infer is, that
it must have required an immense time, much longer than that embraced by the subsequent period of historical record." (2) In other words, human history and the history of civilization is much longer than the recent 5,000 year history we may have based all our understanding on. Human history runs deep into Africa and into the Universe.
More To Conclude & Expand
Having an exact date of the origin of agriculture is not as important as having a more accurate understanding of world history, thus of self. However, it is important to understand where agriculture started, by whom and that it was a long time ago, much longer than some would mislead school children to believe. What is equally important, is that the location and minimum time frame for the development of agriculture occurred when most groups of people on the planet did not exist. The world was black and African. Out of the last Ice Age, white Africans (Europeans) appeared. Since that time, white Africans interbreeding with black Africans worldwide has sped up the process of physical differences in the human population. This has made it easier for those with ill intent to create confusion about the origin of all people and the origin of civilization and the origin upon which their societies are built. We are one people, one species, one family.
Now back to the final understanding regarding agriculture. What is of the utmost importance is that white Africans (Europeans) did not even exist until no earlier than 20,000 BCE, which is an overly generous estimate. At any rate, prior to 20,000 BCE, African civilizations in Africa were ancient, fully developed, advanced and of high culture. Greeks, the founders of European societies, had to come back home to Africa to attend African Universities to attempt to learn how to do things. Wanting a rich history of their own, they came back and invaded Africa and took huge amounts of knowledge and library books. They put their names on this knowledge and, as a result, history books falsely claim white origins of black knowledge. Even with this knowledge, the lack of harmony and the lack of respect for family, caused white Africans to misuse the knowledge and misuse the way agriculture is practiced. Without merging knowledge of self with other knowledge, knowing how to behave in an ecosystem relationship becomes elusive. Without this barometer and cosmic context, knowledge becomes delusional as to what it is good for. This is so because without merging knowledge with knowledge of self, conflict exists. Conflict exists because knowledge without knowledge of self is low level knowledge which favors incompleteness, weakness, ego and the lower self over their much higher forms. Knowledge of self not nurtured and developed creates many life conflicts as one tries to exist in a universe that depends on knowing self. This necessarily puts a person in conflict with the above, below, within and without. The person has the option to change or remain at war with absolutely everything and everyone.
