THE EMPIRE'S AGE AND SCOPE.

The excavations of Petrie revealed in Egypt the remains of a distinct race that preceeded the historic Egyptians. The earliest civilization was higher than that of the later dynasties. Its purer art represents an „Old Race” that fills all the background of the pre-historic ages. It colonized the first civilized centers of the primitive world. The ancients called this pioneer ram which lit the torch of art and science, Cushite Ethiopians, the founders of primeval cities and civilized life. The wonders of India, to which Europe sought a passage in the age of Columbus, the costly products and coveted merchandise of Babylon, and the amazing prehistoric civilization of Asia Minor, sprang from this little recognized source. The achievements of this race in early ages were the result of co-operation. Cushites reached the true zenith of democracy. Their skillful hands raised Cyclopean walls dug out mighty lakes and laid imperishable roads that have endured throughout the ages. This was the uniform testimony of ancient records. Modern writers seem of superficial research, either being unaware of these facts, or knowing, purposely ignore them. Archaeologists dig up the proofs,

p. 16

ethnologists announce their origin, but history refuses to change its antiquated and exploded theories.

General history informs us that when the curtain of history was lifted, the civilization of Egypt was hoary with age. It was a culture that must have developed from thousands of years of growth. Why is the scholarship of the world so silent Is to what lay behind historic Egypt? No nation throughout the ages has „as Athene sprung full fledged into knowledge of all the arts and sciences.” The story of what lay behind Egypt fascinated the whole ancient world. The culture of Egypt did not originate upon the Lower Nile. Who then was her teacher? It was the ancient Cushite empire of Ethiopians, which weighty authorities tell us ruled over three continents for thousands of years. Should the world wait longer to test the truth of these ancient witnesses? Beside, these gigantic achievements, the petty conquests of Alexander the Great, Julius Caesar, and of Napoleon Bonaparte, fade into insignificance. There seems to be fear to tell about these ancients, who built mighty cities, the ruins of which extend in uninterrupted succession around the shores of the Mediterranean Sea. Traces of this hoary empire, works appearing to have been wrought by giants, hearing marks of Cushite genius, have been found by scientists all over the primitive world.

We marvel at the wonders recently unearthed in Egypt. Let us look behind her through the glasses of science at the „Old Race” of which

p. 17

she was in her beginning, only a colony. Ethiopia was the source of all that Egypt knew and transmitted to Greece and Rome. We are accustomed to think of Ethiopia as a restricted country in Africa but this was not true. The study of ancient maps and the descriptions of the geographers of old, reveals that the ancient Land of Cush was a very widespread and powerful empire. Rosenmuller shows us that the Hebrew scholars called Cush, all the countries of the torrid zone. It was the race that Huxley saw akin to the Dravidians of India, stretching in an empire from India to Spain. The Greeks described Ethiopia as the country around the Indus and Ganges. (Rosenmuller's Biblical Geography, Bk. III, p. 154.)

H. G. Wells says that the Hamitic tongue was a much wider and more varied language than the Semitic or Aryan in ancient days. 1 It was the language of the Neolithic peoples who occupied most of western and southern Asia, who may have been related to the Dravidians of India and the people of George Elliot's Heliolithic culture. Sir H. H. Johnson says that this lost Hamitic language was represented by the scattered branches of Crete, Lydia, the Basques, the Caucasian-Dravidian group, the ancient Sumerian and the Elamite. The peoples of this race were the first to give the world ideas of government. Stephanus of Byzantium, voicing the universal testimony of antiquity wrote, „Ethiopia was the

p. 18

first established country on earth and the Ethiopians were the first to set up the worship of the gods and to establish laws.” The later ages gained from this ancient empire, the fundamental principles upon which republičan governments are founded. The basic stones of that wonderful dominion were equality, temperence, industry, intelligence and justice.

The average historical book ignores this testimony and disputes in its theories the records and monuments of Egypt and Chaldea. They group the races in utter contradiction to the records of the Greeks and Hebrews. In the light of reason, who would know about the ethnic relations of the ancients, the scholars and historians of Egypt, Chaldea and Greece, who are more and more corroborated by the findings of science, or the theories of the men of today? The modern writer whose research has been superficial does not know that before the days of Grecian and Roman ascendency, the entire circle of the Mediterranean and her islands was dotted with the magic cities and the world-wide trade of Ethiopians. The gods and goddesses of the Greeks and Romans were but the borrowed kings and queens of this Cushite empire of Ethiopians. So marvelous had been their achievements in primitive ages, that in later days, they were worshipped as immortals by the people of India, Egypt, old Ethiopia, Asia Minor and the Mediterranean world.

Rawlinson, after his exhaustive research into the life of ancient nations, says, „For the last

p. 19

three thousand years the world has been mainly indebted to the Semitic and Indo-European races for its advancement, but it was otherwise in the first ages. Egypt and Babylon, Mizraim and Nimrod, both descendants of Ham, led the way and acted as the pioneers of mankind in the various untrodden fields of art, science and literature. Alphabetical writings, astronomy, history, chronology, architecture, plastic art, sculpture, navigation, agriculture and textile industries seem to have had their origin in one. or the other of these countries.” (Rawlinson's Ancient Monarchies, Vol. I.) The taming of the animals was the gift to us of these prehistoric men. By skill and perseverence they developed from wild plants the wheat, oats and rye that are the foundation of our agriculture. This work was done so many ages ago, that their wild origin has disappeared. The average man little realizes the gifts of the prehistoric ages, or how helpless we would be without them today.

Rawlinson continues, „The first inventors, of any art are among the greatest benefactors of mankind and the bold steps they take from the known to the unknown, from blank ignorance, to discovery, are equal to many subsequent steps of progress.” Bunsen says in his Philosophy of Ancient History, „The Hamitic family as Rawlinson proves must be given the credit for being the fountainhead of civilization. This family comprised the ancient Ethiopians, the Egyptians, the original Canaanites and the old Chaldeans. The inscriptions of the Chaldean monuments

p. 20

prove their race affinity. The Bible proves their relationship. It names the sons of Ham as Cush, Mizraim, Phut and the race of Canaan. Mizraim peopled Egypt and Canaan the land later possessed by the Hebrews. Phut located in Africa and Cush extended his colonies over a wide domain.” (Philosophy of Ancient History, Bunsen, p. 51)

Bunsen concludes by saying, „Cushite colonies were all along the southern shores of Asia and Africa and by the archaeological remains, along the southern and eastern coasts of Arabia. The name Cush was given to four great areas, Media, Persia, Susiana and Aria, or the whole territory between the Indus and Tigris in prehistoric times. In Africa the Ethiopians, the Egyptians, the Libyans, the Canaanites and Phoenicians were all descendants of Ham. They were a black or dark colored race and the pioneers of our civilization. They were emphatically the monument builders on the plains of Shinar and the valley of the Nile from Meroe to Memphis. In southern Arabia they erected wonderful edifices. They were responsible for the monuments that dot southern Siberia and in America along the valley of the Mississippi down to Mexico and in Peru their images and monuments stand a ”voiceless witnesses.„ This was the ancient Cushite Empire of Ethiopians that covered three worlds. Some of our later books recognizing their indisputable influence in primitive culture, speak of them as a brunet brown race representing a mysterious Heliolithic culture.

Da li je na nekoga ovo ovde ili iz knjige, ostavilo nekakav utisak?

Samo bih zamolila da se ne javlja ovaj trol AntiSrbin pod razlicitim nickovima.

Ona kaže da su Kushiti bili crni, pa onda na drugom mestu kaže tamni, pa na trecem da su rodjaci Etruraca, Pelazga, Baskijaca...,a oni nisu crni.

Mnoge stvari sto je rekla za Kusite, jasno je da govori o nama Srbima.
Samo smo tamo u Ethiopiji, mesajuci se sa domorocima a i od onog sunca, pocrneli.

Jasno je i da je Kraljica od SABE ili Kraljica Srba, koja je bila Kraljica Etiopije, Egipta i (S)arabije pripadala Kusitima, tj. Sabinima.
I šta ono rece za one Hibrew, tj. Jevreje? Za njihov jezik i teritorije? Toliko za mene NOVIH podataka, moram stalno da se vracam i da utvrdjujem gradivo.

Ajde javite se.
Šta je po vama od ovog sto ona tvrdi tačno, a šta nije?

Ne obazirite se na ovaj flooding i zatrpavanje moje teme, nekim besmislenim temama.

Pozdrav svim slobodnomislecima!

Pavlimire, hvala, vrlo interesantno vidjenje. To da je duhovno pokretac.
Mada je sada u modi objašnjenje - sve preko gena.

Ko je po tebi Mizram i Ham?

Ali zar nije fascinantno da se njene tvrdnje poklapaju sa tvrdnjama Srpske autohtone skole, s tim sto ona tvrdi da su to Etiopljani?

Ako se sve druge cinjenice slazu, ono da su carevi bili proglasavani za bogove itd. to je dokaz da je zaista tako bilo.

Ali ona je bila koncentrisana na dogadjanja u tom delu sveta.
Da je proucavala Vincu i druga nalazista duz Dunava, Ona bi videla da ti 'Etiopljani' poticu ustvari iz podunavlja i da su imali u celoj Evropi, mnogo stariju civilizaciju.

Ustvari ja sam sigurna da je ona sve to otkrila u drugoj i trecoj knjizi i zato su one 'izgubljene'.

Ako si ti Pavlimire iz Amerike, zar ne bi mogao da pokusas da nadjes te knjige, ako nisu unistene?
Ili sam ja mnogo naivna?

Amateri istoricari zasluzuju mnogo vise poverenja, od profesionalnih, koji tačno znaju šta smeju a šta ne, da bi mogli od bavljenja istorijom da žive. Oni znaju gde će biti zaustavljeni i gde će im biti receno 'no, no'.

'The >>>>>Sabaeans<<<<, Himyarites, and Ethiopians maintained supremacy almost to modern times; but the ancient glory had departed previous to the rise of Assyria 1300 B. C.

Not long before the Arabian peninsula had been overrun by Semites, chiefly nomads, who became the permanent inhabitants. The previous conquests of the ancient world denominated by modern books as Semitic were Cushite Arabian and not of the later Semitic Arabian race. Through this error many ancient branches of the Hamitic race are lined up its Semitic. After the rise of Assyria, tire Ethiopians above Egypt became the central representatives of that power that had exercised world empire for thousands of years. What kind of race could this have been that could throw such giant shadows upon time's dawn?'

Pavlimire, Mandolina i Tabanac, da li smo mi SRBI ovi SABINS što se pominju u Bibliji i na mnogim su starim kartama?
