Kofi Anan Ancestors Were Amorites!

Preamble
While Westerners had been the masters of the writing of historical documents, they had not been fair toward the learned black men and women who had been the major players in the building of Ancient civilizations. We know their first appearance in Europe from central Asia which was supposed to be their homelands commenced in 1200 B.C., so they are not the right people to make the documentation. Herodotus, the historian, and a few Ancient Roman Generals, such as Tacitus and Jordanes, the Roman historians who had been documenters had offered thorough and genuine accounts through their ethnographic studies that had met the satisfaction of academic scholarship. But later Caucasian historians engaged in certain types of corruption that misspelled and fabricated names that did not do justice to the black people that had been the originators of superb civilizations which took place way back in Mesopotamia, Babylon, Assyria, Ancient Egypt, Ancient Israel and lastly the Ancient Roman civilization. These had been the civilizations (e.g., the Roman Empire) that had opened the eyes of the inhabitants of the world, educated and tamed them from their brute cultures in the first place.

Not only did they fix imposters who usurped a whole group of people but also sometimes they claimed to be the people themselves who lived in those areas or painted them white to deceive many learned and unlearned academics. While as they emerged from their isolation they could not read nor write, black people had invented writing and built all the civilizations that had existed earlier on earth. The time has come that we worked hard to expose these insincere academics so that correct representation would be made in the history books and other documentation that had earlier falsified information as a result of prejudice or hate they had toward black people.

Aims of the Study
The present article attempts to delve into the history of the Ancient Babylonians to prove that their descendants reside in Ghana and its environments but not Bahrain, India, or others as alleged by Western scholars. The Ancient Black Elamites and other Ancient Blacks reside in these countries instead. The article compares the names of the major cities in Babylon and those of Ghana and states that they are a perfect match for one another. Not only did the names of their cities resemble the Ghana ones, but the Amorites dynasties had been the rulers that dominated the Ancient Babylonian and Ancient Egyptian politics for centuries. In Ancient Israel, they and their Kings were subjugated and absorbed by the incoming Israelites.

Historical Background
The catastrophic end of Sumerian civilization happened around 2004 BC and this opened doors for others as it laid dormant for almost a century. In Mesopotamia, conflicts and tension gave way for the Amorites who had inherited much of their civilization and culture from Sumer. They began to seize power and later gained prominence in the region.

The Amorites were present in the region west of the Euphrates, modern Syria, around 2500 BC. The Akkadians had referred to them as Amurru, which today in Ghana the tribe of the Akwamu is popularly known for using as personal names and that of their gods. The late UN Secretary-General, Mr. Kofi Anan was called Bosommuru Kofi Atta Anan. (The name Atta was used by the Amorites). The Amorites did not invade for 500 years but pushed downwards into southern Mesopotamia, integrating into Sumerian civilizations where they sojourned. They became officers in the armies of Third Dynasty Ur and offered assistance in menial labor for Ur and Akkad citizens. With time Ur became weak and faulted in power, and during its decline with Sumerian civilization, the Amorites seized and rose to powerful positions in the hierarchy. The Amorites took the final chance when the sudden end of Ur came as the Elamites, another black civilization, crushed them. The Amorites, already Sumerians by citizenship, could now occupy strong positions and take it up.

The Sumerians had originated their system of city-states, where farms, cattle, and people were the property of the gods, the temples which could be the king. The Amorites built their self-styled kingdoms and city capitals using the old cities of the Sumerians. As well as inheriting the leftover Sumerian cities, the Amorites also grounded several big and powerful cities. These commenced from Syria down to the south of Mesopotamia.

King Amoabeng Code of Law (Hammurabi/Ammurabi Code of Law)

Furthermore, the Amorites built and formed a new society of slavery-free subjects who could farm their lands and operate businesses as they wanted. These new inventions and improvisations enhanced widely the development of a civilization. They engineered many basic concepts of early literature and mathematics, and they invented multiplication, assisting and aiding in mercantile and sales transactions or commerce. This is where we had King Amoabeng creating the Code of Hammurabi, one of the most prominent law documents in Ancient Babylon. These laws consist of a series of laws that stressed the pursuit of justice, dealt with the relation to business transactions, and set the form for later law codes in the Ancient world.

Concluding Remarks
European scholars have taken credit for any good thing that happened on earth and have succeeded in denigrating the contributions made by illustrious Black men and women in the world. Where they obviously cannot take the credit they commence to paint the color of the inhabitants white to signify that it was not accomplished by Blacks. The Amorites who were in the Levant and later accomplished a lot in the building of Ancient Egyptian civilization and Israel are usually seen by Europeans as being in Bahrain and India. But the truth is that the remnant of these people are in Ghana and its environments or abroad. The Elamites, another black civilization may probably be in India and Bahrain.

Blacks were the originators of all the Ancient Civilizations which started in Mesopotamia and spread to Ancient Thailand and others, which were also Black civilizations. It was the Ancient Roman Empire that was commenced by Black people and Mullatoes that tamed and educated the Germanic tribes and the Slavs who in a recent period invaded Europe or were chased out by Attila the Hun from Central Asia, which happened to be their homelands. Science introduction, the building of aqueducts, the making of weaponry, and modern forms of development were all learned from the Black people. Yet they continue to spread the false information that Blacks are not intelligent one that grounded all these civilizations. But the good news is that those sincere academics who happen to be Caucasians acknowledge the contributions made by Black civilizations and they insist that it is NOW that the Europeans are trying to do something that will allow us to include them as world civilizers.
