  • In this episode Zeinab Badawi’s exploration of Africans’ rich history focuses on North Africa. She goes to Morocco to find out about the original inhabitants of the region in particular the Berbers or Amazigh as they prefer to be called.
    Zeinab visits Carthage in Tunisia and explains who the Carthaginians were and their place in Africa’s history. She also looks at the great Berber kings and how they managed to retain their influence when North Africa came under Roman rule.
    Zeinab visits some of the most extensive and least visited ancient sites in Algeria built under the Romans.

    Thank you Zeinab , UNESCO and Africa for this remarkable series. I have noticed that most of the people show case their dance, music, stories and visual arts during an interview. As a result, I realize that we have become witnesses to a "living history" not a dead one.

      There are many reasons to be proud of being African. The African continent is the region that's growing the fastest economically in the world right now and millions are being lifted out of poverty. It's expected because of how fast the continent is growing economically, no African country will be a 3rd world nation in a few decades.

I'm not defending them but i know little bit about them,for sure they may have some racists people like any other countries.so we can't judge them all in the same ideology.

    People need to shut up and watch this series! it is about Africa this is not the time to argue about colour of skin or who is true African and who isnt. Massinisa of the Numidian Empire told the Romans " Africa is for the Africans"! he didnt specify the colour , the language nor the religion. Our shared continent unite us all. North Africans are Africans and will be Africans regardless of their colour, no one in Algeria or Morocco said they were Europeans they are all proud of their African heritage. Enough of the pathetic hatred!
    P.S. I was named after St. Augustine of Hippo in Anaba, Algeria and i am proud . Power to the Africans!

You have done a nobel documentary that doesn't only offer a contribution to the evolution of humanity, but furthermore, offers a critical evidence that many generations have vanished due to greed for money that escalated to wars and extinction in many forms. This is a starting point to alarm the current generation about the future of humanity. When does that day come when educational institutions, and the world media show the benefits of peaceful coexistence. The humanity is quite thankful to you Mrs.Zeinab..

    "Hannibal is one of the great figures of the history or Carthage, but it's sad that he was a military man, a figure of war." At last I hear an archaeologist saying that all those "great" conquerors and warriors like Julius Caesar, Alexander the Great or Napoleon were, in fact, people who should not be praised for that! They are not heroes but violent invaders, robbers, criminals. We should learn to pay more attention to what is really valuable in human history.

      The Supporters of the racist right-wing currents - which believe in white racial superiority - having ancestors of the "pure white race" of Europeans, genetic tests of the remains of ancient settlers have shown that ancient Europe is almost a melting pot for the migration of ancestral dynasties from present-day Africa, the Middle East and Russia

      This Roman Empire had no limits. The population of the city of Rome reached one million inhabitants since the end of the first century, which was considered a very huge number, in a world whose population did not exceed 200 million at the time. The Roman military legions represented real examples of this empire that contributed to the promotion of cultural diversity, given that the warriors of these legions were settling in remote areas, marrying and settling there. These warriors were recruited not only from the inhabitants of the city of Rome, but from all over the empire and even from outside it, and this means that the recruits were coming from Gaul (a Roman name for the region of the Celtic peoples north of Italy, France and present-day Belgium) and from Spain, Mauritania and the Maghreb region known at the time as Numidia, from Syria and Palestine, and of course from Egypt.Genetic tests of the remains of ancient settlers have shown that ancient Europe is almost a melting pot of ancestral dynasties migration from present-day Africa, the Middle East, and Russia. Genetic discoveries and research showed that the ancestors of Europeans living on European lands today came thousands of years ago from non-European places, and brought with them - through three major migration waves - art, music, agriculture, cities, domesticated horses, invention of the wheel - and perhaps the plague, and they carried the roots of the Indo-European languages ​​that It is spoken in most parts of the Old Continent today. Diverse empire The ethnic origins of the people of the empire were much more diverse than we could possibly imagine. Ancient Rome was the capital of diversity in a sprawling empire.This Roman Empire had no limits. The population of the city of Rome reached one million inhabitants since the end of the first century, which was considered a very huge number, in a world whose population did not exceed 200 million at the time. The Roman military legions represented real examples of this empire that contributed to the promotion of cultural diversity, given that the warriors of these legions were settling in remote areas, marrying and settling there.

      Rome is the capital of the Middle East The writer mentions that a team of researchers from Stanford University in the United States managed during the past year to analyze the DNA of a group of remains found in tombs in the ancient Roman capital. And they came up with the genetic map of 127 people from 29 different locations, to form a clear picture about the origins of the inhabitants of the region on which this empire was built, not only during the period of its existence, but over the 12 thousand years of human life in the areas in which it was found.The results of these researches indicated that the inhabitants of Europe during the Neolithic era descended from Anatolia, and there are others who carry the genes of Iranian peasants and Caucasian fishermen. During the Iron Age, the population carried the Numidian genes. In the Roman Empire, most of the genetic origins that have been identified belong to the eastern Mediterranean. Margaret Antonio, the leader of this team of researchers, considers that the Romans during the founding of their great empire were very similar to the Greeks, the Maltese, the Cypriots, the Lebanese and the Syrians.

    • @malimalou751
      @malimalou751 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      ​@@alielamrani669 Using language as a criteria to define Amazigh culture and Berber communities does make sense but is not enough. In Algeria, for instance, the Berbers are not just to be found within the Kabylia region (Grande Kabylie) in the North and the Mozabite and Tuareg communities within the South but also within the Chawiya who are based in the mountainous region of the Aures that stretch far into the eastern region, all the way into the borders with Tunisia. This, in addition to regions where no Berber vernacular is used (because lost) but which are nonetheless historically Amazigh like Little Kabylia (Petite Kabylie located to the east of the Grande Kabylie) and that includes a series of towns and villages running along part of the north-eastern coast. These details should indicate the importance of the Amazigh stock within the identity of the greatest number of Algerians.
      Having said that, it would be a mistake, in my view, to believe in the notion of a wholesome Berber identity based on a separate ethnicity as historically the populations of North Africa have been known for their diversity due to the continuous heterogeneity that has marked them through time. So Algerians in their majority do see themselves as Amazigh, which effectively they are, by virtue of this population mixing that characterizes their long history, at least up to the start of the French colonial period, that is, up to 1830.

    I think many people refuse to accept the idea of an Indigenous North African ethnicity due to the close proximity of Europe and the Middle East. Which is wrong. Just like the KhoiKhoi (Khwekhwe) are an Indigenous South African ethnicity, who are different to Bantu or Nilotic. They too have descendents who are the product of mixing with Caucasians etc, but that doesn't mean they aren't an ethnic group unique to Africa. Yes, many North Africans are mixed but the Amazigh and other groups are still Indigenous Africans. Not all "Black" Africans look the same and not all Africans are "Black". Let's love, appreciate and support ALL Africans and learn to embrace and enjoy our similarities and differences.❤️

      Also, Arab is a culture. Like Latino. Not a race. So it's not accurate to equate many North Africans' Arab heritage with their ethnicity.

      In the beginning all Africans were Black. At one point everyone was Black. Europeans were not in Africa when the Pyramids were built.

      I think they’re called indigenous because of timing. The berbers were there before the Arab invasion. And we know extremely ancient Moroccan DNA has sub-Saharan mixture. So by that context, 10000 years from now, we might be considered indigenous Americans. Or maybe a better example is Mexicans. We can argue that Mexicans are indigenous Americans because of their significant admixture with Native Americans, even though we know they’re European by way of Spain. Ten thousand years from now, no one will care about the admixture. They will just call them indigenous.

      But the final outcome is that Massinissa offered the romans (probably unintentionally ) a foothold in North Africa and thus destroying the northern African kingdoms forever...

      Carthage already had trade settlements in Mauretania Tingitana (Modern Morocco) like Lixus and Tamuda. Carthage didn’t have the numbers and the mindset of full military control they were more focused on the business... probably that’s why they lost...
