Another thing people need to consider is...Africans simply didnt need sea movements that much. Our continent had everything people needed to live and enjoy. Thats the whole reason it got colonised. Unlike the Vikings whose countries were mountains and rocks, thus, needed to sail to better lands, we had everything. Obviously the eastern africans had sea activities due to them being the main trade routes to bring us silk and artisan products from asia.

Big Facts! Also, “Mansa Musa of Mali” The Richest Man ever, had a brother Abu Bakr who sailed to the America’s with 2,000 ships to set up shop almost 200 years before Europeans. He made this trip after hearing of other Africans who had already settled in the New Lands 2000 years prior to his voyage! Watch the Legend of Timbuktu below! They discuss his part at about 8:50 mark but the whole video is worth a watch! Enjoy! kzread.info/dash/bejne/np1st8maia-sdrQ.html

One thing I learned bout some Europeans is that they feel their history and culture is base on truth and facts while others are lies and deciet. The Moors and Africans taught Europeans how to wash themselves cause they wasn't washing themselves. It also matches up later in time when they colonize America and Natives said they wouldn't bathe neither. Funny enough most white people still don't use wash clothes to clean themselves!!

Love your videos. Learning more about Africa every day. The last piece about the canary islands current is fascinating. When Columbus reached Espanola he wrote down in his ship log that he ran into Ethiopians there. I wonder if this connects to the story.

Thank you for these videos. The links for the Afrographics website are not working. I'm trying to access the resources listed. Thank you.

Good video. And what about Central and Southern Africa ?

You need to look into the work of Ivan VanSertimer who places African seafaring much farther back--like 4000 years ago.

I would like to make two comments related to the channel and not to the video: 1) I'm from Brazil, and I don't know if that's why, but I can't see any of the topics on the africangraphic site, only those about hair products; 2) I know you say that sources are available in Patheon and it is absolutely fair that you seek financial compensation for the excellent work, but I ask if keeping sources behind a paywall is a good strategy, both for education and for the business.

@hometeamhistory It's been rumored that the Polynesians and the Vikings all failed across the Pacific and Atlantic seas before major European contact with the Americas. Is there any speculation of this with early African tribes?

I don’t know, maybe

In my opinion that’s why the Portuguese even attempted to go to America is because the Musas had one it first.

Same with the sudano-sahelian style, we always hear the west-africans copied the Middle East, but they forget that to travel to Arabia, you had to cross the Nile valley which was still great and had been urbanised thousands of years before the arabs. Kano ,for example, is much closer to Meroe or Nubia than Medina, probably same journey they took to go to Ghana or Timbuktu. Why would they copy the Levant first, when Kush or Kemet had been on their doorsteps for eons?
