Where do we originate from? some say we are semi-Arab others claim Axum and some even claim Egyptian ancientry.
I think the answer will go a long way to explain why we are the most messed up people in the face of the universe.

This subject always seems to come up. It doesn't matter where you came from, it just matters where you are going. But I love this quote.

"Where do these strange people come from. Like all Nomads, Somalis essentially come from nowhere. Roving, quarreling bands of Somalis show up in the horn of Africa, the Biblical land of Punt, about the same time as roving, quarelling bands of Normans show up for the battle of Hastings."

i think we are pherons...
i think you heard about the 18th dynasty in egypt.
the nubians who imigrated to the land of gods. where is now known as SAYLAC in somali...

but there is a lot of research needs to be don

one think is for sure tough...
we've been there way before the arabs,,,
it's just that we didn't have a base, we moved around, and no writting. that is why there is no building, cuz there was no use of them....

THIS IS FUNNY.
BUT I DON'T THINK SOMALIA IS THE PLACE WHERE ADAM AND EVA OR "XAAWA IYO AADAN" WAS CREATED BY GOD.

i could tell yuo where u come from but you would'nt believe me. the history is simple. if your a religous man dont believe the arabs they are the ppl that enslaved and took your true culture from you just the whites did the blacks in america. life as we know it began in what we now know as etheopia. remember the four rivers that the bible talks about in gen. (pls. remember that the muslims got there book from alexandre the great between 300-360.after the bible was made.then from the bible came the muslim text.) read the bible and you'll know how you are as ppl.all black ppl are consider to be hebrewislealites all none black where none as the gentile. read brotha's and sista's dont be afraid to know how we are as a ppl.
