ON THE CONTRIBUTIONS OF AFRICANS TO EUROPEAN CIVILIZATION
The contributions of africans to european civilizations is enormous. Africans laid the foundation of europe. The first migrants into europe from 40,000-10,000 BC were Africans. As a result the earliest languages spoken in europe were african languages. This has had a profound effect on european languages. An ancient Egyptian Language called Sankiri is one of the African languages spoken in europe long ago. The Yoruba, Tsekiri and Edo languages spoken in south-west Nigeria are dialects of Shankiri language spoken by fisher men in the Nile River Delta in lower Egypt. Up to 80% of words in some European and Asian languages are words from African languages (e.g. latin). I shall give some examples with the English language:
europe - europo means large crowd in shankiri.
nation - ni-shan or nile ishan was the ishankiri old name for egypt.
ocean - o shan means it flows and this was the ishankiri name for sea
king - arkin means our king in ishankiri.
