Lies repeated for a century has just collapsed in 30 seconds. It was not an Afrocentric who said it. It is THEIR own advisor to the UN (Emad El-Saay) on THEIR own television in live broadcast. He is not Afrocentric : Come and explain to me now that « Afrocentrics distort History »

He added : « Even the riddles of hieroglyphs, we didn’t solve them ourselves. Westerns came and solved them for us »👇Awaken. Remember. Reclaim.

For generations, the story of ancient Africa has been debated, misunderstood, and viewed through many different lenses. “The Hidden Truth About Ancient Egypt (The Return to Kemet)” is a journey into the history, spirituality, and wisdom of one of the world’s most influential civilizations.

This book explores the mysteries, philosophies, and cultural legacy of Kemet — the civilization known today as Ancient Egypt — and invites you to look deeper into the knowledge, symbols, traditions, and ideas that shaped Africa and the world.

Although the Nubians were renowned for their skill and precision as archers - the ancient Egyptians referred to Nubia as "Ta-Seti" or "The Land of the Bow", but they were considered fierce and formidable warriors in all other aspects of warfare too. In addition to archery, they were skilled in other martial arts like boxing, wrestling, and stick fighting. Nubian armies used a variety of weapons including swords, bows, and arrows. The Nubians fought numerous battles against the ancient Egyptians, at times even conquering and ruling over parts of Egypt. In the 8th century BC, Nubian archers fought back against Muslim invaders also. One famous Nubian military leader was Queen Amanirenas, who led a surprise attack against the Romans in the 1st century BC. Her forces captured several Roman cities and defaced statues of Emperor Augustus, prompting a Roman invasion of Nubia. After years of fighting, Amanirenas negotiated a favorable peace treaty with the Romans.

Overall, the Nubians were renowned throughout history for their martial prowess, especially their mastery of archery, which made them formidable adversaries and valuable allies in ancient conflicts.

‘Egypt’ by The Zangaki Brothers (1870-1890)

C. and G. Zangaki were two Greek brothers who were active photographers in Egypt from the 1870s to 1890s.

The brothers traveled along the Nile accompanied with a horse-drawn darkroom wagon to document the Egyptian scenery and events. 

Images included views of the pyramids, e.g., Cheops or the Sphinx and the cities, e.g., Suez or Alexandria, as well of Egyptians going about their daily lives, a teacher and pupils, men by the Nile, or women at home. 

This doe highlight will round out a set of triplets. Daisy and Onyx have gotten their spotlight, and now it's Baklava's turn.

Coming in as a 3F this year, she's a doe that I look at and see tons of room for improvement in a lot of different areas, but also really love having on the milkstand despite all her flaws.

While I know you can't milk color, she always has something fun come out, which makes her an interesting doe to kid. Some of her kids from the past 2 years are included here. While Daisy is a copy-paste of her dam in a lot of ways, Baklava is definitely her sire's carbon copy. Mainly in the color department given that she is extremely shy and her sire was a psychotic little thing.

Her mammary system has also been a reminder to me that things can change so much from what their FF udder looks like. She had a set of twins, but rejected one, so milked for a single and her udder definitely showed it. But her 2F udder came in way better and really exploded in capacity.

I'm also really intrigued to see what her kids look like this year as she was bred to my homebred junior buckling. Thinking pink on her as I'm really wanting to freshen a daughter from that buck kid and see what he improves on. And she is honestly a really good candidate to test that given the mammary system she's got.

Bellies are growing! Compared to last year when she was at this stage of pregnancy with a set of 6# twins, Daisy's 40 lbs. heavier.
