I am from edo state in Nigeria. Years ago when I started seeing names of places in Japan like osaka okada edo. I started to wonder how are they naming their places in Japan the same way we named our towns in edo state. They worship their gods exactly the way we worship our gods in Benin. Years later from studies in Chicago I found out that the people from edo state migrated from edo state and settled in what is called present day japan-osaka. You posted a video about also a tribe from Nigeria speak the Chinese languages. Those people are still in Nigeria today speaking their native Chinese dialects. Without knowing it’s called mandarin in far away countries called china. I have seen Chinese people in Chicago with straight afro hair like myself and same black men built. I am no longer surprised that the truth is coming out with the help of internet. Keep posting more videos thanks

As someone who is Japanese and African American this is astonishing to me. Thank you for sharing this. I hope we can unravel more historical mysteries👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

This is a comfirmation that there's a reason behind Africa the cradle of humanity

I schooled in Benin City, Edo state, Nigeria and that's how we greet elders: 'Domor sir'' ...more research needs to be done on this connection between Nigeria/Africa and Japan, China and other Asian countries

OMG, I'm Nigerian and I was reading this book called 'No, No Boy', it's written by a Japanese author. When I was reading the book, I noticed A LOT of the names sounded like names from my tribe. The more I researched and spoke to HONEST Japanese, because there was one Japanese lady that was trying to make me look stupid like I didn't know what I was talking about. Anyway, the more I've spoken to Japanese people, the more I realized that there are PLENTY of similarities between the Japanese and Africa. I believe a tribe came to Japan from Africa during the last ice age. I'm really, really glad to see this video. THANK YOU!!!!

I am Nigerian.
As a child with no knowledge of history, but by simply being a very inquisitive child who happened to have been exposed to Japanese culture very early, due to my dad's travels to Japan, I was astonished by how a lot of Japanese names sounded strangely like, or very similar to the everyday names I heard all around me in Nigeria!!!
Now as an adult, I am now beginning to understand the connection....
Thanks for this well researched video!

THIS IS ONE OF THE REASONS AUTHENTIC AFRICAN ART IS SO VALUBLE AMONG EUROPEANS, AND OTHERS. THE TRUE MEANING OF THE ART IS KEPT SECRET. ALSO, IT'S ONE OF THE REASONS ALMOST EVERY MAJOR MUSEUM IN EUROPE, AND THE U.S. HAS ANCIENT AFRICAN ART, AND ARTIFACTS. FURTHER EVIDENCE AS TO WHY EUROPEANS DO WANT TO RETURN THE ART TO IT'S RIGHTFUL PLACE ON THE AFRICAN CONTINENT.

Shalom, Today is my Birthday, Thanks to the Most High I am 76 years young today this video is a gift to me Thank You. I have a slight correction, these warrior / Gods who traveled from Africia landed in Korea first they were so impressed by the strong work ethic of the Korean woman that they married them to start a new race of people. They moved to what is now called Japan and started the Japanese race. Thank you and keep up the good work.

These linguistic similarities make the tower of babel story seem like it is based on something historical.

[AA-uxgg]

As Japanese I always think African language and Japanese language is so similar
So I like them 😊

Some skeptics say the walls didn't exist. Go to Benin, you will see parts of the remnants of the wall. Ive seen them during my school days in Benin city.

. Most was destroyed by the British during the Benin invasion.

Also, the ancient design of Benin city can still be seen in modern day city plan of Benin- the city centre revolves around the Oba's (king) palace, with a ring road in front, then streets veer off this. Its really interesting to see that our ancestors were better town planners than today's generation, where theres little planning and houses are built in a haphazard manner

My ex is from Japan. I’m African-American, so I don’t know the Edo language, but we definitely noticed the strange linguistic similarities between West Africa and Japan. Very cool to see it extrapolated upon.

A Catholic priest by the name of Fr.ignatius Endo.during world war 2.A Japan war commander gave this name Endo to him while being in a womb of his mother.Wonderful learning history.thankyou very much.

Thank you so much for this incredible, insightful video! I'm of Haitian descent, and my DNA is primarily made up of West African (& Central if it includes the former kingdom of Kongo) ethnicities. It's amazing how much of our ancestral cultures we've been able to maintain through song and dance; thus, I like to research where we've obtained (or retained) certain aspects of our culture—which is regionally diverse within itself. Having watched a good amount of Japanese and Korean content, growing up, I've noticed many similarities in physical features, and some japanese words that I could attribute to Haiti. As I learn more about West African peoples and their histories, the similarities to East Asians that I've picked up on make total sense! You have no idea how much joy it brings me to see how we're all so connected! Thank you so much for the time and effort you've put into this video. I only wish more people saw the importance of learning about the history of the continent that birthed not just our kind, but the first homos as well.

My son's name is Eyasu. His dad is Ethiopian. Language is amazing!

[sergiolantigua]

This is some wonderful research...the first time that I was made aware of the African and Asian connection was back in the 90's when I read the African presence in early Asia, by Ivan Van Sertima

This was very well done, & appreciated. I am a black woman in amerikkka. I have always had a love, & spiritual pull to Japan. Japanese people have always been beautiful spiritual people to me. Thank you.

[lavoriathornton]

I wish colonization never happened and that we all could enjoy the world without belittling the blackness with disbelief and disrespect! We always have to prove who we are and be wiped out ! Thanks for the history lesson it was a beautiful journey!

Same mess happened to me the first time I went to Hawaii. Their king had the same name as my grandpa back in the DRC. Kamehameha. And then the entire Hawaiian language has the same phonetics, and use of the letter "u" as in the DRC.
When I went to the library to research what was happening, I could not help but notice how the Aborigines looked just like the Congolese, including their queens & kings..
