What was the name prior to Afrika? Credit to: Sammy Scott on Facebook... According to Senegalese historian Dr. Cheikh Anta Diop, the ancient name of Africa was Alkebulan, which means "mother of mankind" or "garden of Eden". The name was used by the Moors, Nubians, Ethiopians, and other indigenous people. The name Africa was given to the continent by the ancient Romans and Greeks. Some experts believe that the name Africa comes from two Phoenician words, "friqi" and "pharika", which translate to "corn" and "fruit". The word "Africa" came into existence in the late 17th century. Initially, it only referred to the northern part of the continent. Around that time, the continent had been colonized, and the Europeans ruled over its people as slaves. They influenced the change of identity from Alkebulan to its present name. #DrCheikhAntaDiop #Alkebulan #Afrika

“Whites recognize other nations once they recognize the source of their theft. I.E, Whites started calling N. Africa the MIDDLE EAST after WWI, you know, the oil. God named Africa Alkebulan. All the ppl on cave walls reflecting biblical figures are also Blk/Afrcan but whites suffer from some dysmorphia where they’ve shot off the wide noses, big lips, change the image of God, skin color, hair, ethnic sounding names, etc., God who is said to have feet like burnt bronze has been sold to original Jews as a white, torturous, murderous God and you’re paying for it but it’ll be like hell on earth for your kid, trying to hide with that skin, lazy, fighting 7 wars.
