Nile Valley Contributions to Civilization: Exploding the Myths: 1

Product Information

However, as a cultural critic, Browder's book fails to hold water, and his attempts to examine Black contribution outside of European influence in some occasions rings false.

The region was known as Nubia, present-day southern Egypt, and northern Sudan, spanning from the Nile River Valley to the Red Sea.

The ancient Egyptians faced many invasions from the Assyrian, Persian, and Macedonian Empires all claiming control over Egypt. Often flowing over its banks several feet, the Nile deposited layers of silt and dirt rich in nutrients and natural fertilizers on the surrounding land.

The Nile today stretches 6,650 kilometers (4,132 miles) and is believed to be the longest river in the world.Exploding the Myths shines when Browder focuses on what he has lived and breathed: the field of Egyptology.

With respect to the deviations Exploding the Myths takes in its thesis, this behavior often relegates us to parroting out responses that coincide with what white supremacy has established as acceptable. The average depth of the Nile is 8-11 meters, but in the lake behind the Aswan Dam, the river is as deep as 180 meters. Egyptians established major cities at Memphis and Thebes along with many others in the Nile River delta. The river valley is currently home to over 250 million people that depend on the resources of the Nile River for survival.

This book has a two-fold purpose; to demonstrate to Black and White Hebrews and Jews their undeniable kinship and to encourage a better relationship among Israelites through understanding of that kinship. There was no 'Egypt' prior to the Greek use of the word 'Egypt', Africans referred to their land as Kemet, that is, the Black Land.
