how can you say they were discovered by David Livingston, are they animals to be discovered? i think you must pull down this video by the very fact of saying people were discovered by another person.
Bantu and bantu migration is a western concept of explaining African peoples.thats why its all over the place with all types of origins ...languages and cultural similarities grow from location and interactions with different groups of people ,so chances of having similar words,phrases amongst people of the same land mass is very high..I grew up thinking kikuyu bantus come from the congos but nop..kikuyus,merus come from northern africa and migrated south after the assyrian invasion 663,667 BCE
I learned from my tribe elders that our ancestors migrated from Misri, which is Swahili for Egypt. There was a large Bantu population in ancient Egypt, however the imperialists history doesn't tell it. Africans can rewrite their own history.
I feel like the connection to Egypt is something they really hate because think about it who really built a pyramids we did there's more pyramids in Sudan than Egypt and Sudan was known as the kingdom of Nubia and the Western world still hasn't figured out how to read the original cush language if modern day Somalians and Ethiopians are the same people from Egypt shouldn't they be able to decipher the Kush language the funny thing is it's easy to find out what the West is hiding because the truth has to come out they just have to make sure it doesn't reach a broad audience but if you do enough research you'll find the truth
Nonsense. Misri didn't exist as a word before the Arabs gave you this! Even if you want to prove it, it doesn't change the fact that Bantu came from West africa
Hebrews and bantu literally traveled the same path the only people traveling at that time ..LITERALLY STOP TRYING TO MAKE IT SEEM AS THO THEYRE DIFFERENT
@@adeolukoya8901 sometimes history can be distorted or only a part of it is kept or it's exaggerated or misinterpreted. For example the middle Eastern roots often came because of Islam so people want to claim Arab ancestry to be closer to Muhammad's lineage. You're Yoruba i think so it's a possibility. It can also only refer to a small part of your ancestry like an African american claiming an irish background because of 10% of his white ancestry or a latino claiming Yoruba ancestry while only being 20% african
@@Snpiedog 😂😂😂my point exactly. Gb, kp crap are not Kikongo. Those are Northern Congolese tribe names and are heavily related to Sudanese and nilotic tribes in Uganda and South Sudan as well as West Africans. Some of these people even have same names like 'Emeka' , 'Egbende' , 'Adole' , 'Kpakpo' etc they are who we label BaNgalas cus most of those are descendants of force publique tribes and nilotics from Chad and South Sudan. A Kikongo name is something like Malonda, Mavinga, Malenga, Masamba, Mbala, Malonga, Sumbu, Pambou, Lutumba, Milandu, Nzinga, Luyeye, Lukebakio, Ndombele, Lukoki, Matondo, Nkunku, Mvemba/Mbemba and so much more. Extremely different to Northern DRC. Lots of Congolese that say they're 'BaKongo' are not even related to us or our subtribes and typically they cannot speak an authentic kikongo dialect such as Kiyombe, KiKugni or Tshivili but they will speak Lingala a creole language based on Western Bantu tribes with like 40% vocabulary coming from Bobangi-Nunu with also some Sudanese languages like Lugbara -boni yo..how are you/you okay in Lingala and in Lugbara they say 'ngoni'with same meaning?🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Lingala is a creole for DRC. They steal too much from Kikongo in recent years too in Kinshasa especially. They didn't even have a word for thank you but they've stolen ours 🤦🏽♀️ Anyway bless the DRC 🇨🇩❤️
@@Snpiedog 😂😂😂the fufu heads are usually from mbuni mayi who are BaLubas. Interesting with the Basenji cus Northern Congolese tribes use them for similar stuff. Truth is colonisation ruined peoples original history. Even Hutu is a scam. A bembe (bukavu) can be a hutu based on looks as class created by Belgians. Hutus are many different tribes who are not even lingustically related to each other but cus they speak 'bantu' languages, they're the same?🤣🤣🤣 I've met Himas who tell me outright they are not bantus yet they're under Bantu 🤦🏽♀️
@@Snpiedog lol are people from Katanga more related to Tanzanians? Cus us in SW DRC (Kongo Central) we are more related to Angolans especially Owambos, Hereros and BaKongos and ROC compared to other Congolese tribes. Kongo Central there are many different groups under Kongo but we all came from different areas at least for a lot they came from Namibia. We seriously have barely any relations to those in the rest of DRC Congo. People in Kinshasa you can't take their tribes seriously if they barely know their culture or language. At this point you're gonna get Ba-Kinshasa in a few years wait on it😂😂😂 Even BaKongo itself is a political term but people still use this?🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️
@menses randomly lag laughter 🤣🤣They're basically descendants of BesiKongo in NW NGola and SW DRC but they speak a language similar to Kimanianga (a Kikongo language) due to proximity but they don't look like Maniangas and are typically taller than them so that's why people assume BesiNgombe are foreigner's but truth is, it is the Maniangas that are foreigners as they are from ROC🇨🇬 and they were never even seen as BaKongos until recent. Long story short the BesiNgombe are a subgroup of the BesiKongos. They need to learn KiSiKongo cus that's the language they should be speaking.
From what I learnt from my parents and our culture(I'm a bantu myself) we ran away from the people who were killing our brothers and sisters and went into different directions to hide from the people.
Bantu people came from the Great Lakes region and not the Cameroon/Nigeria region. The greatest concentration of Bantu language dialects and people is found in the Great Lakes region and southern Africa, which can be seen as an indicator of source and origins
@@KingOfAfrica90 also note that as you head towards the periphery of the bantu people's geographic range, those in direct contact or proximity to other groups will be culturally and linguistically influenced by their neighbours. The Xhosa in the south and the bantu people found in Cameroon are heavily influenced by their neighbours, so much so that they adopted some of their neighbours ways and language.
Thank you for this video. I am a Middle School teacher, and it is a perfect video to teach my students about the Bantu migration during this quarantine time. I also learned that the newest research from UNESCO has a different perspective on the migration from our 2008 textbook. Great job!
Earliest human achiological finding are found in the southern, and Native San people who live in the Botswana Namibia remained there while the was ancient migration northern. Meaning what you call Bantu originally migrated to North and West Africa in prehistoric times. And continued to migrate overtime. Then the Sahara Desert was once wet and eventually dried, so over time you could have had the Bantu migration back to the southern region and towards the Nile River to the east. Back then they were not organized communities we have today that can move at once in an organised migration, or conquest, displacing the natives. people moved gradually, as individuals, and as small groups of hunters. And Africa was a peaceful nation, we had not much conquests of land and wars. We only had minor tribal raid for resources, like cattle and women. Land we believe and still do that the creater was the owner of land, we are just beneficiaries. Why people didn't have armies and migrated a lot especially when food and other resources got depleted. We Africans didn't have were welcoming and peace loving people, didn't have large armies for war. The ideas of war are foreign to Us, foreigner took advantage of this, we welcomed them openly, then they conquered us. Same thing happened in Egypt, initially Egypt had no armies, but eventually did to protect itself from conquests. War ideas of conquest developed in the Europe where land was scarce and people fought for it, here in Africa we had abundance of land and resources that there was enough for everyone not to have permanent claims or go to war for it. So The Bantu migration. This was more a return, or those who had moved south, some moved back to the south others went east to the North. These regions were less populated and organised than they are today, so there were not that many natives or displacement. Those natives who were there are those who had remained in the region, and continued to develop there, even those who remained still migrated within the region. Human civilization if you follow achiology, DNA, and advancement in pottery and metalogy etc it started in the Southern Africa and developed as it went left. The architecture of Great Zimbabwe was developed in the Southern in the Mapungubwe areas where South Africa, Zimbabwe and Botswana meet, The same system of architecture was the same used to construct the Egyptian pyramids. You might think the Egyptian pyramids are only in Egypt but in Africa there are more pyramids out of Egypt than they are in Egypt, if you move from Pyramids in Egypt back South into Africa along the Nile River following the Architecture you can see pyramids they developed from within Africa, from Sudan, Ethiopia, the Egyptian took copied and advanced the architecture before it was copied and advanced in the middle East Persian , and it was copied and advanced by the Greek and other Europeans. But the origin of that architecture is southern Africa, it advanced as you moved north. You can also follow the development history of pottery making along the same lines, starting in its primitive stage in the Southern Africa to through it's development as you moved north, unit the shape, and decorative have improved. You can also do the same for ritual and religious beliefs, the writing once simple cave paintings developed to language and other developments that were advanced in Egypt, they started in the South, got developed as we moved north, most didn't spontaneous appear, they were copied from South and advanced by the North. Most want to ignore these historical data and evidence and think development was a top bottom thing we're it came from God's and Advanced civilization trickling down south then it happened the other way from it's primitive stage in the Southern Africa and get advanced as we moved north. The southern Africa was the roots of civilization that got advanced in the north. Greeks often gets much credit of some ideas which they saw copied from Egypt, Africa and gave new names. Even the Greek gods themselves are copy of Egypt, African gods with new faces but same meaning. Their God had to Go to back Africa once a year least they become mortals again. Borders were brought in recently, Africa was just one and human had freedom of movement, movement was not in one direction or specific directions, it was all over, over the whole period. People could move North as simply as they could move North, but those who look down upon the black south want to believe migration was only one way from north to South. They ignore movement and evidence of South to North movement because they never wanted to give credit to the black African, and his contributions to modern civilization.
The ones that went East mixed with The Ubangians,Nilotes,Cushites and Pygmies they met along the way but the most definitive impact is the Ubangians who influenced the Eastern Bantus accent and changed there language making it darastically different from there cousins in the west .
KEMBO KEMBO TATA NZAMBI YAMA ZULU halleluyah. What are you talking about man the bantu people are the people of scripture halleluyah. & the bantu people are not religious people they are spiritual people who worship YAHUAH HALLELUYAH
Say it louder. All praises. Yahya!! Knowledge is becoming more and accessible o a point we can finally correct these videos for their misrepresentation of our people. Love that response. We need to stop letting these things slide.
We the Ibibios/Ejagham/Efik in Nigeria are the oldest Bantu speaker in the world. Bantu migration started from a place between Cameroon and Nigeria. We spread from here down to Sudan and Egypt. We have the oral record.
Why in the most of the bantu videos you are representing also some nilotics from northern Tanzania??? They are not bantus... at least genetically!!! Even the Tutsis in Rwanda & Burundi, are "bantu" only under the bantu culture & kirundi or kinyarwanda language, but genetically they are nilotics or hamites, they are coming from one of Ethiopia's areas.
They are mixed they aren't purely nilotic or cushite(hamite is outdated) so they can still be described as Bantu just like Indian and French are both indo europeans yet aren't genetically the same
Being a grandson of a fijian chief , our legend state we traveled down the river Rufiji in Africa south of Tanzania. Apparently we were warrior who also worked as gold mines Egypt.
Good point Tony! Not trying to do a complete overhaul on this history but just want to provide a few items that could be helpful for those interested in learning a small bit. This period of history is difficult to work through with the lack of written history and reliance on oral tradition. This leaves people to look at the archeological record and increases the margin for error for those trying to interpret the history today.
thier ancestors in west africa were farmers and they left with that knowledge lol. africa before bantus would've been mostly hunter gatherers so deal with it
I thoroughly enjoyed this, good work. Just a minor correction on the Lozi greeting; it's suppose to read "Muzuhile cwani." But I understand why you spelled it the way you did, probably because it sounds a bit like that when spoken fast by native speakers 😁
Nonsense. If we have any connection as a group with those in the middle East, it goes back further more in time and the Bantu didnt exist yet since we are only a subset of a West African group(Benue Congo)
Fyi, the Bantu people are not a single group of people. There are different groups within the Bantu people, and even more subgroups within those groups, some don't even believe are same people.
They don’t even count the 1% I’m told. My dna came back as 32% Cameroon, Congo, & western Bantu peoples, 15% Benin & Togo, and 42% Nigerian. The rest doesn’t matter to me. 🤷🏽♀️ when I downloaded my dna to Gedmatch, it says I’m 94% Bantu. 😁
I'm not sure about the bantu migration originating in west africa. As an African who speaks Zimbabwean Ndebele, most southern african languages were born from Swahili and not what is spoken mostly in West africa. The dialects are too different. Even the phenotypic features of a west african are different from east and southern Africans.
I never disputed that Swahili is a bantu language. My assumption is simply based on phonetics. West african languages are built differently. Please provide me with accurate sources that can assist my understanding. Thanks

East african bantus assimilated cushitic peoples which is why they look different, and south African bantus assimilated khoisa. If you look at someone from Cameroon which is where the proto bantu came from you mostly look like them. Now, being in the same language family does not mean something is mutually intelligible, it just means there is a common ancestors. All bantu langauges have a common ancestors they descend from that they branched off from to form the diverse and unintelligible languages of today. Furthermore south African languages don't descend from swahili
@@whoreofdragonstone1031 Eh. Only specific tribes/ethnicities. Some Tutsi have up to 20% Southern Cushitic Admixture which is why they appear phenotypically so. Kenyans aren't even proper bantus because Maasai have 30% Cushitic and Mostly Nilotic Ancestry, not Bantu. Kikuyus also have significant Cushitic Admixture. Only Luos are proper Bantus.
@@whoreofdragonstone1031 Dude there is no logic in your statement that Bantus assimilated with the cush and assimilated with the Khoi and San..You understand that in Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Burundi Bantus are in the majority, same as Southern Africa..I don't understand why you are convinced that so called Bantus came from Cameroon..I'm a so called Bantu from South Africa..Give me one piece of evidence that my ancestors came from West Africa..I don't understand how we could be from Cameroon when our language's are completely different and our food is different, even our cultures.Have you ever questioned where the Europeans who propagated this nonsense, where they got this info???.Its a theory which you take as facts..Google Bantu migration most scholarly sources will state it is believed or thought that Bantus came from Cameroon/Nigeria..Which means that it is not fact just a theory..I don't know if you are African If you are I don't understand why you believe these lies!
This is a great video. Super interesting history. Some questions occurred to me while watching: 1) Did the Bantu people learn about iron because they got it from the Phoenicians? Or did iron appear in the central part of the African continent more or less at the same time as it did in the Eastern Mediterranean, somewhere around 2000 BCE approximately, and spread to West Africa giving rise to the beautiful metal sculptures of the Oyo and other Empires,, many of which were looted and housed in British museums? 2) Where did the Phoenician writing system originate? Again, super interesting history. Thanks for making this video!
I did some other research after watching this, and from that research learned that metal working in West Africa is older than that of the Phoenicians. Also the Phoenician's learned writing through trade with Egypt. However the original alphabet, called Proto-Sinaitic, was developed by Semitic workers and slaves living in Egypt. It was influenced by Egyptian hieratic which is a cursive script.
🤣🤣🤣 a European telling you about African history. Really fun hey 😂. Bantu(Africans) were always all over Africa dont buy into this bullshit of us migrating from one vocal point only a 1000 years ago
This video is pure nonsense lol every language in Zambia does not come from Nyanja. According to my Bemba brothas, Nyanja is an invented language based on the Chichewa language as a lingua franca for the capital Lusaka. Bemba is older than Nyanja!
Nyanja is not an invented language or lingua franca, that's a myth popular in Zambia, I also learnt that growing up in LSK. It is actually the same language as Chichewa, and linguist and historians agree on this. In Malawi, they spoke 'Nyanja' but changed the name to 'Chichewa' during the independence decade, named after the Chewa people for nationalistic reasons. Since then, the languages have diverged like America English and British English, but are still the same language.
00:33 The Phoenicians? Source? Also, the alphabet is derived from Ancient Egyptian Hieroglyphs (32nd century BC), through proto-Sinaitic/Old Canaanite (19th century BC), which is the actual origin of all alphabets, including Phoenician (12th century BC), is the origin of Greek alphabet, among others.
thank you for this video it helps me understand what my book is saying and also helps me understand what the bantu migration is during my summer classes online
1st century cushites from Ethiopia settle in Tanganyika 10th century AD about this time the fable of fijian from Tanganyika ( Chronological History man in Tanganyika)
(America's) deuteronomy 28 "I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of Egypt (Bondage), out of the land of slavery. Then the LORD will make you return to Egypt (Bondage) by Ships, over a route (America's) I said to you that you would never see again A foreign nation (America's) you have never heard about. A nation (America's) unknown to you or your ancestors. A nation against you from far away, (America's) from the ends of the earth, like an eagle (America's) swooping down. A nation (America's) whose language you shall not understand. A fierce and heartless nation (America's) that shows no respect for the old and no pity for the young. Will scatter you among all the nations from one end of the earth to the other. And you shall become a horror, a proverb, and a byword (N-Word) among all the peoples where the LORD will lead you away. A people that you do not know (America's) will eat what your land and labor produce, and you will have nothing but cruel oppression all your days. You will be unsuccessful in everything you do; day after day you will be oppressed and robbed, with no one to rescue you. The foreigners who reside among you will rise above you higher and higher, but you will sink lower and lower. You will be pledged to be married to a woman, but another will take her and rape her. You will build a house, but you will not live in it. You will plant a vineyard, but you will not even begin to enjoy its fruit. Your ox will be slaughtered before your eyes, but you will eat none of it. Your donkey will be forcibly taken from you and will not be returned. Your sheep will be given to your enemies, and no one will rescue them. Your sons and daughters will be given to another nation, and you will wear out your eyes watching for them day after day, powerless to lift a hand. A people that you do not know will eat what your land and labor produce, and you will have nothing but cruel oppression all your days. The sights you see will drive you mad They will lend to you, but you will not lend to them. They will be the head, but you will be the tail They will be a sign and a wonder to you and your descendants forever. Because you did not serve the Lord your God joyfully and gladly in the time of prosperity therefore in hunger and thirst, in nakedness and dire poverty, you will serve the enemies the Lord sends against you. He will put an iron yoke on your neck until he has destroyed you. The Lord will drive you and the king you set over you to a nation (America's) unknown to you or your ancestors. There you will worship other gods, gods of wood (Cross) and (Kabaa) stone. You will live in constant suspense, filled with dread both night and day, never sure of your life. When all these blessings and curses I have set before you come on you and you take them to heart wherever the Lord your God disperses you among the nations, and when you and your children return to the Lord your God and obey him with all your heart and with all your soul according to everything I command you today, then the Lord your God will restore your fortunes and have compassion on you and gather you again from all the nations where he scattered you.” But I will punish the nation they serve as slaves, and afterward they will come out with great possessions." Amos 9:7 Are ye not as children of the Cushites unto me, O children of Israel? saith the Lord. Have not I brought up Israel out of the land of Egypt?)

Knowledge of iron in bantu did not come from Phoenicians. Knowledge of iron in west Africa is thought to have developed independently from the rest of the world as they went straight from stone to iron. It goes back to Western Africa with the Nok people in northern Nigeria being the first society known so far to do it on a wide scale. It is likely they got it from the Nok as they also came from west Africa
Bantus don't come form nok, Nigeria, or west Africa. They come form central congo. There is no evidence that Bantus are form west Africa. Anywhere beyond Cameron .
@@estajeanette7487 evidence suggest they came from somewhere that seems to be the grasslands of Cameroon which is close to south eastern Nigeria and Cameroon is considered a part of both west and central Africa . I said that you were incorrect when you said knowledge of iron working diffused from North Africa. It was once theorized that iron working came from diffusion across the Sahara but in depth analysis how showed there is no evidence for this occurring, rather Iron working was discovered Independently in west Africa which was then by proximity discovered by the proto Bantu population who then brought it with them in their migration
I did not say anything about iron working in my comment. Go and read it again. What evidence is that. How come west Africa has no remains of bantu culture or language.
@@estajeanette7487 apologies, for some reason I thought you were the one who made the video who claimed they got it from diffusion from Phoenicians. My bad And I never said they came from the Nok as if they are descended from them but that the knowledge of iron working likely diffused from Nok/ west Africa. Though there are some populations in west Africa more specifically south eastern Nigeria that share genetics with Bantu and Bantu populations although not directly descended from west Africans and have a distinct lineage, do share affinities with west Africans but more specifically those in the grassland and forest region less so the Sahel. Populations such as Yoruba, Igbo, ijaw, Fon, Ewe, Yacouba etc but almost completely absent in populations like the Mandinka, Fulani, Soninke, Hausa etc There is a “basal” west African root seen in both Bantu and West Africans, though they diverged some time ago. A genetic map of Bantu speakers show all Bantu people have a good deal of similarities to certain west African populations, though it varies depending on the region and ethnic group depending on where as they mixed and fused with different populations as they moved. But yea you are right they don’t “descend from them” as if a direct line, but they have a common origin
Why do Fijian circumcision No doubt the fijian brought the custom with them in remote times, and it's origin is probably the same in their case as in that of the Nacua of Central America, the Egyptian , and Bantu race of Africa Being a grandson of a fijian chief,our legend state we traveled down the river Rufiji in Africa south of Tanzania , Apparently we were warrior who also worked as gold mines Egypt
David Livingstone didn't discover bantu people stop spreading fake information. Also nyanja comes from chichewa which is a nguni/Zulu language since they came from the Zulu kingdom. Bemba comes from the luba- lunda migration. Town bemba is mixed with northern, copperbelt, Luapula and Muchinga languages.
Small correction: Chichewa and Chinyanja are the same languages. That's like comparing British English and American English. Chichewa is not Nguni at all and is related to Nyanja, Tumbuka, Senga, Nsenga, Mang'anja. It came from the Maravi Kingdom of Eastern Zambia, Malawi and Northern Mozambique, not South Africa or Nguni. You are talking about the Ngoni people. A Zulu tribe that fled South Africa and settled amongst the Maravi. Some Ngoni people speak Zulu/Ngoni, and others adopted Maravi languages like Tumbuka.

@B M Europeans themselves never came up with a written language. All European scripts developed from the Greek alphabet that was adopted from the middle east.
@B M What evidence do you have if this genocidal expansion. In Zulu 30-40% of our language is from San languages. That does not sound like a genocide. The preBantu hunter gatherer societies assimilated into the larger more stable bantu nations. That is why many Xhosas or Tswana clans etc still recognise their khoikhoi or San heritage. Even today if you look in Botswana most San now speak Tswana. In the Eastern cape most Khoikhoi now speak Xhosa.
Some of us so called Bantus have always been in the SOUTH AFRICA,look up the ancient kingdom of Kweneng and Maphungubwe.The Bantu migration is a convenient theory to justify white colonizers taking our ancient lands...
Please update yourself on the latest research. You are relying entirely on theories and hypotheses invented by European linguists and 'scholars' over 50 years ago! Very disregarding our history. History is identity, a very sensitive topic, not to be taken lightly. Are black people too stup*d to preserve or reliably investigate our history? Only European narratives are valid? Pottery and iron smelting developed earlier in 'Subsaharan' Africa than anywhere in North Africa or Europe and at the same time or earlier than in West Asia! We domesticated sorghum, millet, yams, melons, coffee, teff, aurochs and African rice. The Mediterranean world and Egypt consumed wheat and barley. If those people could invent metallurgy and agriculture why couldn't we? Iron ore smelting from 2000 BC has been discovered at at least 3 sites across West and Central Africa whilst Carthage is 400BC-700BC at the earliest. The idea that post-stone age technology in Subsaharan Africa must have been diffused from Phoenicians or Caucasians in the North or Eurasia is a baseless and outdated colonial-era myth. And so is the Bantu migration from West Africa. Read the latest research on the desertification of the Green Sahara, the development of a sedentary lifestyle, metallurgy and agriculture in the West/Central Africa, Sudan and Ethiopian Highlands. Recently, DNA analysis from 4000BC from the Cameroon highlands nearly Nigeria disproved the Bantu homeland. And I'm not one of these people saying we're from Egypt, Israel or the Middle East(i don't have evidence for that), I'm talking about facts that are now mainstream academic debate. We are not from West Africa but have common ancestors who diverged in the green Sahara and Nile Valley after 3000BC, due to desertification and countless possible reasons.
how can you say they were discovered by David Livingston, are they animals to be discovered? i think you must pull down this video by the very fact of saying people were discovered by another person.
Bantu and bantu migration is a western concept of explaining African peoples.thats why its all over the place with all types of origins ...languages and cultural similarities grow from location and interactions with different groups of people ,so chances of having similar words,phrases amongst people of the same land mass is very high..I grew up thinking kikuyu bantus come from the congos but nop..kikuyus,merus come from northern africa and migrated south after the assyrian invasion 663,667 BCE
I learned from my tribe elders that our ancestors migrated from Misri, which is Swahili for Egypt. There was a large Bantu population in ancient Egypt, however the imperialists history doesn't tell it. Africans can rewrite their own history.
I feel like the connection to Egypt is something they really hate because think about it who really built a pyramids we did there's more pyramids in Sudan than Egypt and Sudan was known as the kingdom of Nubia and the Western world still hasn't figured out how to read the original cush language if modern day Somalians and Ethiopians are the same people from Egypt shouldn't they be able to decipher the Kush language the funny thing is it's easy to find out what the West is hiding because the truth has to come out they just have to make sure it doesn't reach a broad audience but if you do enough research you'll find the truth
Nonsense. Misri didn't exist as a word before the Arabs gave you this! Even if you want to prove it, it doesn't change the fact that Bantu came from West africa
@@mikailm6934 but even my tribal history traces our roots to the Middle East too. I’m West African
Hebrews and bantu literally traveled the same path the only people traveling at that time ..LITERALLY STOP TRYING TO MAKE IT SEEM AS THO THEYRE DIFFERENT
@@adeolukoya8901 sometimes history can be distorted or only a part of it is kept or it's exaggerated or misinterpreted. For example the middle Eastern roots often came because of Islam so people want to claim Arab ancestry to be closer to Muhammad's lineage. You're Yoruba i think so it's a possibility. It can also only refer to a small part of your ancestry like an African american claiming an irish background because of 10% of his white ancestry or a latino claiming Yoruba ancestry while only being 20% african

The Bantu migration started in Northeast Africa, or Egypt around the time of the Exodus.

@@Snpiedog 😂😂😂my point exactly. Gb, kp crap are not Kikongo. Those are Northern Congolese tribe names and are heavily related to Sudanese and nilotic tribes in Uganda and South Sudan as well as West Africans. Some of these people even have same names like 'Emeka' , 'Egbende' , 'Adole' , 'Kpakpo' etc they are who we label BaNgalas cus most of those are descendants of force publique tribes and nilotics from Chad and South Sudan.
A Kikongo name is something like Malonda, Mavinga, Malenga, Masamba, Mbala, Malonga, Sumbu, Pambou, Lutumba, Milandu, Nzinga, Luyeye, Lukebakio, Ndombele, Lukoki, Matondo, Nkunku, Mvemba/Mbemba and so much more. Extremely different to Northern DRC.
Lots of Congolese that say they're 'BaKongo' are not even related to us or our subtribes and typically they cannot speak an authentic kikongo dialect such as Kiyombe, KiKugni or Tshivili but they will speak Lingala a creole language based on Western Bantu tribes with like 40% vocabulary coming from Bobangi-Nunu with also some Sudanese languages like Lugbara -boni yo..how are you/you okay in Lingala and in Lugbara they say 'ngoni'with same meaning?🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lingala is a creole for DRC. They steal too much from Kikongo in recent years too in Kinshasa especially.

Truth is colonisation ruined peoples original history. Even Hutu is a scam. A bembe (bukavu) can be a hutu based on looks as class created by Belgians.
Hutus are many different tribes who are not even lingustically related to each other but cus they speak 'bantu' languages, they're the same?🤣🤣🤣
I've met Himas who tell me outright they are not bantus yet they're under Bantu 🤦🏽♀️
@@Snpiedog lol are people from Katanga more related to Tanzanians? Cus us in SW DRC (Kongo Central) we are more related to Angolans especially Owambos, Hereros and BaKongos and ROC compared to other Congolese tribes. Kongo Central there are many different groups under Kongo but we all came from different areas at least for a lot they came from Namibia. We seriously have barely any relations to those in the rest of DRC Congo. People in Kinshasa you can't take their tribes seriously if they barely know their culture or language. At this point you're gonna get Ba-Kinshasa in a few years wait on it😂😂😂
Even BaKongo itself is a political term but people still use this?🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️
@menses randomly lag laughter 🤣🤣They're basically descendants of BesiKongo in NW NGola and SW DRC but they speak a language similar to Kimanianga (a Kikongo language) due to proximity but they don't look like Maniangas and are typically taller than them so that's why people assume BesiNgombe are foreigner's but truth is, it is the Maniangas that are foreigners as they are from ROC🇨🇬 and they were never even seen as BaKongos until recent.
Long story short the BesiNgombe are a subgroup of the BesiKongos. They need to learn KiSiKongo cus that's the language they should be speaking.
The Phoenicians did not give West Africans iron.

This is roots of humanity down to the core, folks! Africa: humanities beginnings.
Bantu people came from the Great Lakes region and not the Cameroon/Nigeria region. The greatest concentration of Bantu language dialects and people is found in the Great Lakes region and southern Africa, which can be seen as an indicator of source and origins
@Rwangolese how but cameroon has Nigerian tribes like Igbo and Hausa
True Sbu more people agree with that narrative of Great Lakes, East Africa and Congo regions
@@KingOfAfrica90 also note that as you head towards the periphery of the bantu people's geographic range, those in direct contact or proximity to other groups will be culturally and linguistically influenced by their neighbours. The Xhosa in the south and the bantu people found in Cameroon are heavily influenced by their neighbours, so much so that they adopted some of their neighbours ways and language.

Earliest human achiological finding are found in the southern, and Native San people who live in the Botswana Namibia remained there while the was ancient migration northern.
Meaning what you call Bantu originally migrated to North and West Africa in prehistoric times.
And continued to migrate overtime.
Then the Sahara Desert was once wet and eventually dried, so over time you could have had the Bantu migration back to the southern region and towards the Nile River to the east.
Back then they were not organized communities we have today that can move at once in an organised migration, or conquest, displacing the natives. people moved gradually, as individuals, and as small groups of hunters. And Africa was a peaceful nation, we had not much conquests of land and wars.
We only had minor tribal raid for resources, like cattle and women.
Land we believe and still do that the creater was the owner of land, we are just beneficiaries.
Why people didn't have armies and migrated a lot especially when food and other resources got depleted.
We Africans didn't have were welcoming and peace loving people, didn't have large armies for war. The ideas of war are foreign to Us, foreigner took advantage of this, we welcomed them openly, then they conquered us. Same thing happened in Egypt, initially Egypt had no armies, but eventually did to protect itself from conquests.
War ideas of conquest developed in the Europe where land was scarce and people fought for it, here in Africa we had abundance of land and resources that there was enough for everyone not to have permanent claims or go to war for it.
So The Bantu migration.
This was more a return, or those who had moved south, some moved back to the south others went east to the North. These regions were less populated and organised than they are today, so there were not that many natives or displacement. Those natives who were there are those who had remained in the region, and continued to develop there, even those who remained still migrated within the region.
Human civilization if you follow achiology, DNA, and advancement in pottery and metalogy etc it started in the Southern Africa and developed as it went left.
The architecture of Great Zimbabwe was developed in the Southern in the Mapungubwe areas where South Africa, Zimbabwe and Botswana meet,
The same system of architecture was the same used to construct the Egyptian pyramids.
You might think the Egyptian pyramids are only in Egypt but in Africa there are more pyramids out of Egypt than they are in Egypt, if you move from Pyramids in Egypt back South into Africa along the Nile River following the Architecture you can see pyramids they developed from within Africa, from Sudan, Ethiopia, the Egyptian took copied and advanced the architecture before it was copied and advanced in the middle East Persian , and it was copied and advanced by the Greek and other Europeans.
But the origin of that architecture is southern Africa, it advanced as you moved north.
You can also follow the development history of pottery making along the same lines, starting in its primitive stage in the Southern Africa to through it's development as you moved north, unit the shape, and decorative have improved.
You can also do the same for ritual and religious beliefs, the writing once simple cave paintings developed to language and other developments that were advanced in Egypt, they started in the South, got developed as we moved north, most didn't spontaneous appear, they were copied from South and advanced by the North.
Most want to ignore these historical data and evidence and think development was a top bottom thing we're it came from God's and Advanced civilization trickling down south then it happened the other way from it's primitive stage in the Southern Africa and get advanced as we moved north.
The southern Africa was the roots of civilization that got advanced in the north.
Greeks often gets much credit of some ideas which they saw copied from Egypt, Africa and gave new names. Even the Greek gods themselves are copy of Egypt, African gods with new faces but same meaning. Their God had to Go to back Africa once a year least they become mortals again.
Borders were brought in recently, Africa was just one and human had freedom of movement, movement was not in one direction or specific directions, it was all over, over the whole period.
People could move North as simply as they could move North, but those who look down upon the black south want to believe migration was only one way from north to South.
They ignore movement and evidence of South to North movement because they never wanted to give credit to the black African, and his contributions to modern civilization.
The ones that went East mixed with The Ubangians,Nilotes,Cushites and Pygmies they met along the way but the most definitive impact is the Ubangians who influenced the Eastern Bantus accent and changed there language making it darastically different from there cousins in the west .
KEMBO KEMBO TATA NZAMBI YAMA ZULU halleluyah. What are you talking about man the bantu people are the people of scripture halleluyah. & the bantu people are not religious people they are spiritual people who worship YAHUAH HALLELUYAH
Say it louder. All praises. Yahya!! Knowledge is becoming more and accessible o a point we can finally correct these videos for their misrepresentation of our people. Love that response. We need to stop letting these things slide.
ua-cam.com/video/-AvBUr_NyG0/v-deo.html this is a fuller and more complete story of the Bantu migration. Misinformation is dangerous.
We the Ibibios/Ejagham/Efik in Nigeria are the oldest Bantu speaker in the world. Bantu migration started from a place between Cameroon and Nigeria. We spread from here down to Sudan and Egypt. We have the oral record.
Why in the most of the bantu videos you are representing also some nilotics from northern Tanzania??? They are not bantus... at least genetically!!! Even the Tutsis in Rwanda & Burundi, are "bantu" only under the bantu culture & kirundi or kinyarwanda language, but genetically they are nilotics or hamites, they are coming from one of Ethiopia's areas.
They are mixed they aren't purely nilotic or cushite(hamite is outdated) so they can still be described as Bantu just like Indian and French are both indo europeans yet aren't genetically the same
The Bantu migration in Africa is like the Slavic and Germanic migrations of Europe.
I'd say it's more like the indo european expansion
Everyone talking about the bantu but are not bantu themselves so funny 🤣 right
Being a grandson of a fijian chief , our legend state we traveled down the river Rufiji in Africa south of Tanzania. Apparently we were warrior who also worked as gold mines Egypt.
Lol, Take this with a grain of salt & keep learning.
Good point Tony! Not trying to do a complete overhaul on this history but just want to provide a few items that could be helpful for those interested in learning a small bit. This period of history is difficult to work through with the lack of written history and reliance on oral tradition. This leaves people to look at the archeological record and increases the margin for error for those trying to interpret the history today.
Lol. Definitely
Bantus were sometimes the oppressors not the oppresses
I say that started from the moment they were given their first weapons. Starting with the spear, and then the firearm...
They created their own spears and many archaeologists believe iron smelting was independently invented by the Nok in West Africa at 1,000 BC.
thier ancestors in west africa were farmers and they left with that knowledge lol. africa before bantus would've been mostly hunter gatherers so deal with it
I thoroughly enjoyed this, good work. Just a minor correction on the Lozi greeting; it's suppose to read "Muzuhile cwani." But I understand why you spelled it the way you did, probably because it sounds a bit like that when spoken fast by native speakers 😁

I'm not sure about the bantu migration originating in west africa. As an African who speaks Zimbabwean Ndebele, most southern african languages were born from Swahili and not what is spoken mostly in West africa. The dialects are too different. Even the phenotypic features of a west african are different from east and southern Africans.
I never disputed that Swahili is a bantu language. My assumption is simply based on phonetics. West african languages are built differently. Please provide me with accurate sources that can assist my understanding. Thanks

East african bantus assimilated cushitic peoples which is why they look different, and south African bantus assimilated khoisa. If you look at someone from Cameroon which is where the proto bantu came from you mostly look like them. Now, being in the same language family does not mean something is mutually intelligible, it just means there is a common ancestors.

This is a great video. Super interesting history. Some questions occurred to me while watching:
1) Did the Bantu people learn about iron because they got it from the Phoenicians? Or did iron appear in the central part of the African continent more or less at the same time as it did in the Eastern Mediterranean, somewhere around 2000 BCE approximately, and spread to West Africa giving rise to the beautiful metal sculptures of the Oyo and other Empires,, many of which were looted and housed in British museums?
2) Where did the Phoenician writing system originate?
Again, super interesting history. Thanks for making this video!
I did some other research after watching this, and from that research learned that metal working in West Africa is older than that of the Phoenicians. Also the Phoenician's learned writing through trade with Egypt. However the original alphabet, called Proto-Sinaitic, was developed by Semitic workers and slaves living in Egypt. It was influenced by Egyptian hieratic which is a cursive script.
🤣🤣🤣 a European telling you about African history. Really fun hey 😂.
Bantu(Africans) were always all over Africa dont buy into this bullshit of us migrating from one vocal point only a 1000 years ago
This video is pure nonsense lol every language in Zambia does not come from Nyanja. According to my Bemba brothas, Nyanja is an invented language based on the Chichewa language as a lingua franca for the capital Lusaka. Bemba is older than Nyanja!
Nyanja is not an invented language or lingua franca, that's a myth popular in Zambia, I also learnt that growing up in LSK. It is actually the same language as Chichewa, and linguist and historians agree on this.
In Malawi, they spoke 'Nyanja' but changed the name to 'Chichewa' during the independence decade, named after the Chewa people for nationalistic reasons. Since then, the languages have diverged like America English and British English, but are still the same language.
This is helpful information. I have a channel dedicated to one of the Bantu languages so I have more to say now
Good stuff! Glad to connect!
It saddens me to see these young men tapping the palms trees to the point where they die
00:33 The Phoenicians? Source?
Also, the alphabet is derived from Ancient Egyptian Hieroglyphs (32nd century BC), through proto-Sinaitic/Old Canaanite (19th century BC), which is the actual origin of all alphabets, including Phoenician (12th century BC), is the origin of Greek alphabet, among others.

Knowledge of iron in bantu did not come from Phoenicians.
Knowledge of iron in west Africa is thought to have developed independently from the rest of the world as they went straight from stone to iron. It goes back to Western Africa with the Nok people in northern Nigeria being the first society known so far to do it on a wide scale. It is likely they got it from the Nok as they also came from west Africa
Bantus don't come form nok, Nigeria, or west Africa. They come form central congo. There is no evidence that Bantus are form west Africa. Anywhere beyond Cameron .
@@estajeanette7487 evidence suggest they came from somewhere that seems to be the grasslands of Cameroon which is close to south eastern Nigeria and Cameroon is considered a part of both west and central Africa . I said that you were incorrect when you said knowledge of iron working diffused from North Africa.
It was once theorized that iron working came from diffusion across the Sahara but in depth analysis how showed there is no evidence for this occurring, rather Iron working was discovered Independently in west Africa which was then by proximity discovered by the proto Bantu population who then brought it with them in their migration
I did not say anything about iron working in my comment. Go and read it again. What evidence is that. How come west Africa has no remains of bantu culture or language.
@@estajeanette7487 apologies, for some reason I thought you were the one who made the video who claimed they got it from diffusion from Phoenicians. My bad
And I never said they came from the Nok as if they are descended from them but that the knowledge of iron working likely diffused from Nok/ west Africa.
Though there are some populations in west Africa more specifically south eastern Nigeria that share genetics with Bantu and Bantu populations although not directly descended from west Africans and have a distinct lineage, do share affinities with west Africans but more specifically those in the grassland and forest region less so the Sahel. Populations such as Yoruba, Igbo, ijaw, Fon, Ewe, Yacouba etc but almost completely absent in populations like the Mandinka, Fulani, Soninke, Hausa etc
There is a “basal” west African root seen in both Bantu and West Africans, though they diverged some time ago. A genetic map of Bantu speakers show all Bantu people have a good deal of similarities to certain west African populations, though it varies depending on the region and ethnic group depending on where as they mixed and fused with different populations as they moved. But yea you are right they don’t “descend from them” as if a direct line, but they have a common origin

Being a grandson of a fijian chief,our legend state we traveled down the river Rufiji in Africa south of Tanzania , Apparently we were warrior who also worked as gold mines Egypt
David Livingstone didn't discover bantu people stop spreading fake information. Also nyanja comes from chichewa which is a nguni/Zulu language since they came from the Zulu kingdom. Bemba comes from the luba- lunda migration. Town bemba is mixed with northern, copperbelt, Luapula and Muchinga languages.
Small correction:
Chichewa and Chinyanja are the same languages. That's like comparing British English and American English. Chichewa is not Nguni at all and is related to Nyanja, Tumbuka, Senga, Nsenga, Mang'anja. It came from the Maravi Kingdom of Eastern Zambia, Malawi and Northern Mozambique, not South Africa or Nguni. You are talking about the Ngoni people. A Zulu tribe that fled South Africa and settled amongst the Maravi. Some Ngoni people speak Zulu/Ngoni, and others adopted Maravi languages like Tumbuka.

Rồi một đêm khác tôi nằm mơ thấy hai con chim nhạn bị bắn chết. Tôi nghe nó nói: Nó là anh em sinh đôi. Tôi liền nghĩ là… và Tận thế

In Zulu we say Kunjani. How are you.
Everybody talking about the bantu but putting Hamite picture and Cushitic but talking about the bantu so weird
The Bantus were running from slavery and they ARE the Isrealites the Bible speaks of
No we are not.
AmaZulu angenaphi emlandweni wama Israeli? Ungasikhomba yini isibongo sakini ebhayibhelini ? Ngoba asikho. Uyazihlaza
Here Bantu from Kenya the tribe of Abasuba. We are not Israelites, we are Africans and very proud of that.
@B M Europeans themselves never came up with a written language. All European scripts developed from the Greek alphabet that was adopted from the middle east.
@B M What evidence do you have if this genocidal expansion. In Zulu 30-40% of our language is from San languages. That does not sound like a genocide. The preBantu hunter gatherer societies assimilated into the larger more stable bantu nations. That is why many Xhosas or Tswana clans etc still recognise their khoikhoi or San heritage. Even today if you look in Botswana most San now speak Tswana. In the Eastern cape most Khoikhoi now speak Xhosa.
Some of us so called Bantus have always been in the SOUTH AFRICA,look up the ancient kingdom of Kweneng and Maphungubwe.The Bantu migration is a convenient theory to justify white colonizers taking our ancient lands...
HIS VOICE MADE MY NOSE HURT! HOW LIKE FR HOW IS IT SO NASAL!!!! WHY IS IT SO NASAL
any way good video rlly helped a lot
Jupiter's Bantu, brown-dwarf star... DCN
I appreciate the effort, but not the memes, it’s so many, it made me stop watching.
Thanks for the feedback. I tried it out and realized I was not called to be an artist. It won't return. ;)
this is not what happened
Please update yourself on the latest research. You are relying entirely on theories and hypotheses invented by European linguists and 'scholars' over 50 years ago! Very disregarding our history. History is identity, a very sensitive topic, not to be taken lightly. Are black people too stup*d to preserve or reliably investigate our history? Only European narratives are valid?
Pottery and iron smelting developed earlier in 'Subsaharan' Africa than anywhere in North Africa or Europe and at the same time or earlier than in West Asia! We domesticated sorghum, millet, yams, melons, coffee, teff, aurochs and African rice. The Mediterranean world and Egypt consumed wheat and barley. If those people could invent metallurgy and agriculture why couldn't we? Iron ore smelting from 2000 BC has been discovered at at least 3 sites across West and Central Africa whilst Carthage is 400BC-700BC at the earliest.
The idea that post-stone age technology in Subsaharan Africa must have been diffused from Phoenicians or Caucasians in the North or Eurasia is a baseless and outdated colonial-era myth. And so is the Bantu migration from West Africa. Read the latest research on the desertification of the Green Sahara, the development of a sedentary lifestyle, metallurgy and agriculture in the West/Central Africa, Sudan and Ethiopian Highlands. Recently, DNA analysis from 4000BC from the Cameroon highlands nearly Nigeria disproved the Bantu homeland.
And I'm not one of these people saying we're from Egypt, Israel or the Middle East(i don't have evidence for that), I'm talking about facts that are now mainstream academic debate. We are not from West Africa but have common ancestors who diverged in the green Sahara and Nile Valley after 3000BC, due to desertification and countless possible reasons.
ohooo thats why all our languages sound similar very very helpful information for us students and as citizens (sir )
How about a video on southern Bantu and it’s revolt 🌚
