In this video we look at the African origin of mathematics.

This video is dedicated to Niousere Kalala Omotunde. May his great soul rest in peace. His knowledge is what inspired this series of videos in the first place. I will forever be grateful to have come across the works of this great mind.

Thank You great teacher, Kalala. Your message was heard and understood. Your words live on forever in the mind and hearts of your students.

This is amazing history when we were told we had no civilization but turns out we are the mother of civilization

Could you possibly do an episode about the African origin of religion? In Botswana there is a Mountain called tsodilo hills but the locals calls it the Mountain of the Gods and on the side of this mountain is a giant carved head of a python/snake and this which realistic site goes back 70, 000 years but no one ever talks about it. They keep wanting to make Göbekli Tepe the oldest religious site in the world but the site in Botswana pre dates it Thousands upon thousands of years.

Great video.💯 Africa invented Writing Systems, Mathematics, Science, Architecture, Astrolomy, Religion, Civilization, Medicine, Art ect. Thousands of years before the continent of europe. Africa also civilized the world and brought humanity out of the stone ages.

I hope we find more archaeological discoveries in South Africa and Congo, it's obvious the first civilizations emerged from there.

As far as I am aware mathematics, astrology and the advanced sciences originated from Africa. Definitely another great video Brother and thank you for sharing. 👍👍😎🤟🤟♒️

[leobvenzen]

Afrika must take ALL Her artifacts and Instruments of Power back from yurugu!!! They want to claim Afrika did Nothing and made no contributions to the World, yet their museums (which they built to house All our Stuff they stole) are filled with Afrikan Creations!!!

[Voice_Of_Truth]

Brother thank for the education and such great work. I'll definitely be researching how Kemet perform all these advance mathematics. May God continue to bless you.

[elijahjames]

Amazing content, keep up the good work.

[thesoulbrother]

As usual, great content brother kueliMika. Keep sharing this knowledge with us.😉

[gastonneal]

Brother, that was an awesome presentation. Thank you for the knowledge. Starting back to college, now, besides my major, nursing, I want to kick ass in math and chemistry. Kemi in Swahili I think.

The pyramids are advanced mathematics, geometry, chemistry, and astronomy.

[BlackMartialArtsSociety]

They say, Pythagoras studied in Chaldea, however the Bible shows that Chaldea came from KUSH

THE MELANDIGENAL ORIGIN OF MATHEMATICS

[CrowdPleeza]

If the Lebambo and Ishango bones are mathematical then which people are the descendants of this math? Which African people living in the areas where those bones were found are known for their mathematics?

[mouktaralbert]

Ishango bone 🦴 is a baboon bone. Tahuti.😊

[jonathansanders]

You can find the African history of mathematics in Wikipedia’s article History of Mathematics

[leobvenzen]

In reality it's the Ahmes papyrus!

[pheleekseh]

Dr Gabriel Oyibo Is the king of mathematics...Gij, j=0
Above Gauss, Euler, and Newton....
With much respect to them though.

[BlackMartialArtsSociety]

But the people of Eurasia who advance mathematics where still blacks. According to the Bible Cush settle the Mesopotamia and cush began in east Africa then migrated to east

19:32 This BBC Clip was amazing and I'm glad a channel like yours exists. A lot of African contributions are overlooked but the claim made at 4:22 in regards to triangulation is so over the top, it taints the veracity of the other information on the channel. Africa does have so much interesting culture that I wish you were a bit more circumspect when making claims like that.
