Blacks in Antiquity: Ethiopians in the Greco-Roman Experience

When you read this book, also pick up a copy of the Aprocrypha that was in the original King James 1611 bible, but has since been removed from newer King James bibles. Black negro helenistic Jews, are the same as black Israelite's that lived under the law and control of the Grecians. They were living the ways of their oppressors/captors, and not the ways of Israel. Ham - the youngest son of Noah, born probably about 96 years before the Flood; and one of eight persons to live through the Flood. He became the progenitor of the dark races; not the NEGROS, but the Egyptians, Ethiopians, Libyans and Canaanites (Gen 10:6-20). So, do not misunderstand the catch-all term of Ethiopians that the Greek/Romans used to classify all brown skin people Helenistic people. Helenistic means, Jews that made Greek their tongue, and with it, often adopted Greek ideas and practices. (Acts 6:1 ; 9:29). Negros were likely Israelites from the Southern Kingdom, tribe of Judah.

I Liked Everything. A Must Read For All Black Folks In America. Whether Israelite, Kemet, Islam Etc.

Very enlightening book. I am definitely going to read this again, and more thoroughly... I may come back with a more in depth analysis of this book. But what I can say here as I write this is that black people then, like they still do today, have always had and still have a major influence in the people they have interactions with. And, yes, we have much to offer, teach and benefit the world.

This book is a comprehensive and thorough analysis of perceptions of people of color in antiquity.

Good book

Very important book to add to your library of Black History Books. I had the honor of taking a class from Dr. Snowden in the 70's.
