Description
In this early groundbreaking work, Edward and Josephing Carlisle explore the ancient worlds of Cush, Ethiopia, Nubia, and other kingdoms. Written in an easy-to-read narrative style, the text relies on Biblical scripture as well as numerous primary sources to recount the story of African people from a distinct African-centered perspective. Preceding the scholarship of Chiek Anta Diop, John Henrik Clarke, Yosef ben-Jochannan, and others, the Carlisles offer an early contribution to the study of ancient African civilizations. Historical Sketches of the Ancient Negro is a fascinating read for those wishing to explore an early chapter of lay-scholars substantiating ancient African contributions to world culture.
