10 fascinating facts about the Bantu.
One of the most successful groups of African tribes is the Bantu, a group of related black people who speak a number of related languages. Nearly all Bantu languages employ the word "Bantu" in a variety of ways, which loosely translates to "people."
The following are 10 incredible facts about the Bantu people.
1. Curvy ladies
Bantu women's extremely endowed, curvaceous bodies are one of their most defining characteristics. Bantu women are renowned for their sculpted bodies, exquisite curves, and stunning facial structure. Natural selection, according to scientists, is responsible for this evolutionary trait.
2. Uniquely linked languages
There are about 3000 Bantu languages, the bulk of which are mutually intelligible to varied degrees. The majority are agglutinative, meaning they blend number, tense, case, gender, and aspect into single words. Bantu languages are likewise very melodic and simple to comprehend. Here is a sample of a few bantu languages.
3. Expansionists.
Today, the Bantu people inhabit the majority of central, western, eastern, and southern Africa. Yet, only a few hundred years ago, they were a small community of Cameroonian bush dwellers. How did they nearly conquer all of Africa? Simple. They created superior iron weaponry, flourished as farmers, and were always on the road, assimilating any populations they came across. The Bantu also, had the benefit the force of mobility that pushed indigenous people from their territory or incorporated them into Bantu culture.
4. Diverse People.
Due to their expansionist propensity, the Bantu absorbed and assimilated the many proto-populations they encountered. Many Bantu tribes in east Africa assimilated various hunter-gatherer and Cushitic groups, which explains why Bantu from nearly the entirety of Kenya, Rwanda, Burundi, and parts of Tanzania appear dissimilar from other Bantu. The Tutsi and Kikuyu, for instance, are believed to have substantial Nilotic and Cushitic admixture. The Xhosa, a Bantu people of southern Africa, have a substantial Khoisan genetic component. This means that the Bantu have a broad variety of phenotypes, including varied complexions, height, facial features, and other traits. The Swahili people from Kenyan coast are another mixed Bantu population comprised of various Bantu and middle eastern peoples admixture.
5. The largest black population.
The Bantus are the largest ethnic group in Africa. They were estimated to number around 350 million by the midpoint of the 2010s, constituting roughly 30% of Africa's overall.
6. Disseminated ironworking technology.
The Bantu expansion spread ironworking technology to eastern and southern Africa from around 500 BCE to 400 CE, as evidenced by the Lake Victoria region's Urewe culture. They were renowned for their blacksmithing skills, which contributed to their quick expansion.
7. Strong empires.
The Bantu are responsible for one of the greatest empires in the world. The Great Zimbabwe, an astonishing array of stacked boulders, stone towers, and granite-block defensive walls, is one of the most spectacular structures in Sub-Saharan Africa.
8. A substantial diaspora population.
Brazil has the world's second-largest black population. It is second only to Nigeria. There are approximately 100 million of them. The majority of these Afro-Brazilians are descended from Angola, a Bantu nation.
9. The founders of the Swahili language.
Swahili is the most commonly spoken language in Africa. It's a Bantu tongue. It is estimated that there are between 100 and 150 million speakers. It originated around 500 years ago on the Kenyan coast as a result of interactions between various Bantu tribes and Arab traders.
10. Occupiers of the best arable land in Africa.
Last but not least, the Bantu have distinguished themselves as great in agriculture, owing to their location in high altitude areas of Africa with excellent climates. Their lands are fertile and well-watered. They inhabit the slopes of Africa's tallest mountains, including Kilimanjaro, Mount Kenya, and Mount Meru.

@@abcminime I think you need to rewrite what ever you are saying cos I don't seems to get it,have you even read what you wrote? Well let tell you this,The Bantu people migrated from the land that is known today as Cameroon and settle in different parts of Africa and I am not saying every tribe in Cameroon is Bantu, Cameroon had many tribes an till this day there are still many tribes in Cameroon, The Bantus were and are still one of the many tribes in Cameroon and some of them migrated to different parts of Africa.. .Do your home work, Bantu people originated from the land that is known today as Cameroon..

African American is any person that was born in Africa and got the American citizenship, not only blacks, BTW. If you were born in America, you are American. The term African American referring to black people in America is political correctness.
yes but no bc African is a continent so you can’t just say i’m african ppl will ask from where exactly
@@hiveb1706 #jerrynonofbss will yall just leave this woman alone,she has the right to identify herself whichever way she wants..when black Americans say they don't want to be called Africans y'all complain "she's self hating",when she identifies as African y'all still complain. Let her be,Smh. Take your useless arguments elsewhere!
Remember you don't need to be born in Africa to be an African cause Africa is born in you.

Bantu from Angola 🇦🇴. Love to all my bantu people
Iam a diasporan decended of bantu hebrew people who were taken out of angola in the days of Enzenga who fought the Portuguese for many years during the inquisition/slavery period. They indoctrinated the many klans with catholicism Christianity as a means to control their destiny and ecconomic growth. They destroyed most of the historical facts documents about the original bantus hebrews who are decended from Sephardic Hebrews from Mediterranean Iberian Portugal, and Hispania back to the 1492 to 16th and 17th century. They spoke both Portuguese and Hebrew lingua. The Portuguese is a bantu Mediterranean lingua created by the moors and Hebrew klans. the Hebrews were there first from 2nd century. Then 7th century the moors and Hebrew took control and brought development to Iberia, until the fall of morrish/ Hebrew power due to the growth of Christian catholicism from the Vatican Roman system. In iberia they murdered thousands of Hebrews and defeated the moors who ruled along side their cousins, the hebrew shemites.Angola is full of a false religion today. I was in afrika but I need to go to my Great,great grand father's home. I have historical information to give to the youth and older classes. Mr name is Verne E. dos Lobitos. Shalom
@@vernevanterpool2921 great to hear you from you my angolan bantu brother in the Americas. Some of what you said is correct but most of it is not correct. The only false religion that we have is Christianity and Catholic, our spiritual traditions are ancient. Most of what you see in the bible came directly from us it's just plagiarised and corrupted. we are not Hebrews we never referred to ourself as Hebrews. Many spiritual leaders have kept text and we still have our ancient writing system. The government however don't want to use it cause of foreign powers. The god of angola, zambia, congo. Gabon is( N)zambi there is where zambia came from. and the supreme force is Ntu and We are the physical manifestation of the supreme Force Ntu which makes us Ba-Ntu.(Bantu) We do not speak Hebrew languages. Yes we did occupy the mediterian all the way to irak, Israel, Lebanon etc. if you studyy Ancient Egypt, society, judgement laws, after life and symbolism, spiritual system all came from bantu it has been corrupted by the Romans and European now. The 22 nobles who went to Portugal to teach about the most high. About customes. Laws, rythm, mathematic, physics, and spirituality, astrology where the nobles of King Nkuvu Mbande Nzinga. Grand father of Queen Nzinga. But that was around the late 1300. I don't know much about moors other then that they where a mix of Arabs, fulani and hausa which are a totally different group from bantus and they don't like bantus and used to capture alot of and sell us to Arabs. So if you are saying Hebrews are like moors then we know that Hebrews are not Bantus, moors tried to fight us with Arabs and the never succeeded. They did captures 1000s of us to be enslaved in India. There bantus in India till today. Conclusion: we predate Abraham, Abraham is not our father. We don't deal with ham/shem thats how they got us into slavery we all know that. Remember when shan ham and japhet where alive bantus where already here. We predate them. My bantu brother. I don't mind a back and forth would to hear your side. peace
Hello Bantu bantu(bantu stands for people) I suggest we choose a patron for Bantu bantu name any and why
@Nalumu Justin you are incorrect our ancestor's didn't refer themselves as people. That's a European term

As a Highland Nilote from Kenya, I agree that Bantu brothers and sisters are some of the most amazing, peace-loving, and great people you will ever meet.
You are talking like Bantus are just one group of people. There are many tribes that are part of the Bantu family. And each of them has a different characteristic from the other. Example the kikuyu and the kamba are not the same. The luhya and the meru are not the same. There are Bantu tribes in Congo that practice cannibalism. Even in Uganda. People need to act like they are all the same. They are not. And that's what makes Africa beautiful. Diversity.
@@richardray2680 agreed, they are not all peace loving
@@richardray2680 please generally bantu got welcoming character. It's well known
@@yonarsalach5842 90% are peace loving
@@morganbabu3105 it's not Bantu it's Africans. Generally Africans have welcoming culture. That's why we let the colonizers in so damn easily. But not every tribe is the same. Not every Bantu tribe is the same. There are some very vicious Bantu tribes who don't like visitors. Get this.. A majority of African countries have a population that is predominantly Bantu. And their governments are controlled by leaders who are Bantu. Yet these countries are always at war. Bantu tribes fighting each other. Why? Because being a Bantu doesn't change your character. Doesn't make all of us the same. We might be Bantu but we are still different.

Wadawidaeeee...we are beautiful aren't we?
I remember when i was a young kid when i heard a congolese Kanda Bongoman's song "tika kolela". i thought he was singing in kikuyu. "Tiga korera" funny enough the words have the exact same meaning in both languages. "stop crying"/"dont cry" thats when i realised how we bantus are closely related. sometimes i hear words from south Africans sounding like kikuyu. funny enough if i follow up, i realise that the meaning is exact.

@hilton morris There's nothing as painful and scary as knowing that your time is running out!!! The real evil was put upon God's people, they were sold, enslaved, colonized, raped and killed. Talk about pure Evil, can't even pretend to be Holly. It's time for the remnant of these enslavers to pay for sins of their forefathers.

Great video!!! And the most ancient history of the Bantus is what the Europeans called the Bible, for Bantus are the children of Abraham, Isaac, and Yakob.
Exactly. A thing the white man swore to make them forget who they are. It is sad that people don't realize that. The Bible itself in a few instances reveals the original ethnicity of man. An example is where Job says, "my skin is black". Another is in the origin of man story in the Bible, which is interestingly the same script of the Gikuyu Origin Story, but with a different cast.

The most prevalent DNA among South Africans is of Mbo, varying from nation to nation. I would say my Xhosa people are about 60% Khwe ("khoisan") and 40% Mbo, while our Zulu fam is about 30% Khwe and 70% Mbo. The. Swati who are the most Mbo in culture are about 50/50. Khwe and Mbo have intermixed for thousands of years, all the way from the great lakes, across to Angola and Namibia, and to the south of South Africa. In South Africa, we are said to be Nguni people, but really Mnguni was himself of Khwe and Mbo origin.

@@joeae6297 yeah those are good to know
A lot of us here in the USA also have Bantu ancestry i tested my ancestry and i found i have not just Masaai ancestry but broadly Kenyan ancestry in addition to the west and north African ancestry, this is because the french kidnapped many people from east and the Horn of Africa as well as south east and south Africa. These ships stopped in Cape Town and then sailed to st Dominique. From there those people were brought to the low country directly or via other Carribean islands or to Louisiana and the gulf states. And many of us have those ancestors. Especially those of us with Gullah Geechee roots
Maasai are not Bantu. They are nilotes. But you are right. Many slaves from the horn of Africa were taken to the Caribbean. That's part of history that many blacks in the diaspora don't know. They assume they all came from west Africa.
@@richardray2680 i think I wrote my comment a bit wrong but my Bantu ancestry comes from the broadly Kenyan ancestry. But yes we are a people who are a mix of many different African people! And i see it in different people and Thier faces and features.

@hilton morris Ntu means God in many Bantu languages and Ntu is the Goddess/Deity Nut in our Kemetic classical Afrikan language called Medu Neter. In Zulu Umuntu means a melaninated person and Abantu means melaninated people and if Ntu means God then Abantu simply means Melaninated people are God or an aspect of God having a human experience. Abantu and the so called Khoi and the San people are the first people to exist on planet earth and all the other races come from them. In fact, in my view the Khoi and the San are one of the Bantu tribes.
We called ourselves Abantu before the existence of white people on earth, so we can’t even make reference to Apartheid because the Architects of Apartheid were not even in existence when we called ourselves Abantu.

In Sepedi(My mother tongue) Sotho and Setswana it’s “Batho” meaning people as well
In my language we abantu which means people
I think it’s amazing how everyone in these comments speak about their lineage and tribes , culture etc from all the different countries in Africa. A sense of belonging and knowing your history of ancestors is amazing! Much love from the southern US
Am Zambian and proudly married to a Bantu woman.
Every time I look at her hips/curves, I feel proud to be African.
Love you so much my queens.
But all zambian languages are bantu what kind of zambian are you who is not bantu
@katungu m silumesii
Please ask him? I am Zambian, Bantu by DNA, no one told me I just knew! It’s common sense! Unless this individual parents or grandparents came in Zambia as refugees (very common) fair enough! But a Zambian native of both bl@ck parents is Bantu!
@@missqt48 don't be too quick to judge. First read and understand okay. I am Zambian and a bantu yes but I could marry a colored or white woman who is not bantu. I was being specific that I married a bantu woman what is wrong with that? Maybe you have no ass 😂
@@dimbwemazala8978Bantu are quite mixed with the Semito-Hamites, who import the father's haplogroups E1, R1b, J1, J2 into the region, while the local populations had haplogroups A and B
Your a lucky man do she have a sister
Proud to be Bantu From Bas-Kongo Tribe DRC 🇨🇩🇨🇩🙌🏾🙌🏾....
Greetings from the Netherlands, I am proud of the Bantu family 🇦🇴🇨🇩 👊🏿
LOVE MY AFRICAN PEOPLE AND ESPECIALLY THE QUEENS OF AFRICA! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I can tell you are American. There is literally no reason to highlight a special love of the women if you truly hold a people as one. There is division in you much like there is in black American women, always attempting to elevate the female (American culture) when that's simply not African culture.
The use of "queens" was also a giveaway, African people don't use that term willy-nilly.
Greeting from i'Ethiopia🇪🇹 for my fellow Africans brother and sister.
I’m super proud to be a Bantu from Namibia 🇳🇦 (Subiya)
I loved this video with great narration. I live on the Southeastern coast of the United States. Based on multiple DNA results and looking at some of the facial features of some of the people in this video, I truly believe I am part of the BANTU nation. It would've helped if this video mentioned the haplogroup of the various tribes. I look more Swahili while my paternal grandfather looked more Zulu. I hope there's a follow-up video coming. Great job!
Proudly bantu from Mozambique 🇲🇿❤️🇲🇿

Black American here. Love you Mother Africa.. and someday I will come home to you. I hope I will be received well.
Dated a Ugandan and now Congolese. Always wondered why their accent seemed so similar wven though they are from different regions of Africa🙈. Thank you now I know
What a wonderful video. Been born of Greek parents but always lived in Africa, ( currently Botswana) it was hearwarming to watch. Thank you for your great effort.
Im Cameroonian, and though not of Bantu origin I'm delighted to know that the origin of the Bantu tribes is Cameroon. Love Africa
It’s actually Kongo that’s the birth place of all Bantu people since the entire southern part of Cameroon was once known as the Kongo basin according to ancient map of Africa. When speaking about it now, people tend to say Cameroon but they should know Cameroon didn’t exist back there but Kongo did and it was called Kongo basin. People should be precise to say Bantu birth place was in ancient Kongo basin which has become present day Cameroon.
Bantu are original from the kingdom of Kongo
Bantu are originally from Congo
@@HappinessWithin Which a big part of today Cameroon was from.
Proud to be Bantu, much love from Congo 🇨🇩
Great video.
DR Congo by itself is composed of more than 250 Bantu kingdoms, some of which were huge such us the Kongo Empire(which was in Angola, Congo Brazaville, and DR Congo), the Luba empire in the west and south est of DR Congo, the Shi kingdom that rules on land huge than Rwanda and Burundi compined twice, and it had many similarities with those kingdoms.
I think it's also important to precise that many of these Bantu Kingdoms were in contact with other continents like east Africa (Ethiopia, Kenya, Tanzania, Rwanda, Burundi, and Eastern Congo(Luba, Shi, Lega) were in contact and have trade with many Arabian Kingdoms in the Maghreb some people such us TipoTip were even know in most of those countries, Kongo empire was one of the most developed kingdoms in pre-colonial Africa with many aspects that we have today in modern histories such as rule of law, senate, and separation of state and church.
Many people actually misunderstand how much Africa was developed before the colonial period, fortunately, some books tell us the truth about our continent (books such as Born in blackness, why nations fail, etc.)
What baffled me is they are classifying Tutsi as Bantu... But they are not
Could you name a few more books?
@@yedidyabernicebetama6291 what are tutsis then ?
@@aldainewatson509 tutsi are Nilotic, there are actually that type in African race
@@toddbacc794 oh I always figured that the Nilotics are a part of the Bantu family
Bantu from Kenya. proud to be one of the most beautiful group in Africa
Proudly Kenyan bantu(luhya).
Omusakhulu 😁
I swear mi husema Kiluhya na Zulu ziufanana ki design. Ukiwahi patana na mmoja wao, jaribu tu kumrogea mnaezaelewana🤝🏾
This should be in books and schools in Great Africa and beyond. Very interesting and well narratived/research. I am proud to be of both Bantu people in 🇰🇪 Kenya my mama The Kikuyu (also Agĩkũyũ/Gĩkũyũ) and my baba 🇹🇿 Tanzania The Rangi (Rangi: Valangi; Swahili: Warangi). The Great Africa full of wonders ♥
It's sad they won't teach this kinda stuff in our schools they theach bout the colonial rulers this stuff you find out on your own
Blessing yo you my bantu yesrealite sister, you are 1000% correct, it has to be told to the children in schools from north to south of Afrika, shalom
@@MrBeekay12 we as a people have to demand our rights and heritage be giving to the students every where in the mother land of akibuland/Afrika, be encouraged hope is not lost. Shalom
@@vernevanterpool2921 I am a guy by the way lol
I'm a Taita from Kenya and a Bantu. The author need not omit the Bantu tribes in Coastal Kenya and Tanzania, like Mijikendas and so forth, which due to them, Swahili was birthed.
I m proud Bantu. I speak Xhosa (Wakanda lingua) South Africa
I'm original Bantu speaking Luhya tribe of Kenya thanks alot to recognize the group
Cultura linda, povo forte e lindo
Representing the Bantu tribes of 🇺🇬 Uganda
There's nothing like Bantu tribe. Hundreds of tribes are all Bantus. Mostly tribes that're Isrealites
@@Obalufon Bantu tribes I wrote, using it as a collective term for all tribes that fall under that same way one would say Nilo harmites tribes🤗
@@byamukamaibrahim2856 Nilo Harmites are not Bantus. The Cushitic is part of the Afro-Asiatic family, the Nilotic is part of the Nilo-Saharan family, and the Bantu of the Nigerkordofan family
Uganda isn't bantu its mostly nilo saharan
Buganda is bantu
Proudly to be part of the bantu, BEMBA tribes people of Zambia

I just got my DNA test results back and I have 24% of bantu, 27% nigeria. Im so excited in knowing my roots. We are some beautiful people
Yes You Are Very Beautiful Keyana.
All Bantu carry Y-DNA haplogroup E1b1a. We are a people bound by one genetic marker.
@@jubilee203 Haplogroup does not determine your race. Some Central and West African carry Rb1 haplogroup, so using your logic we could say they're europeans?
Africans women are the most beautiful in all shades and colors. The world is jealous and they keep messing with our continent and they bring all kinds of bad stuff to us. They claim it starts in Africa that is a lie 95 percent of the time. I love curvy curvy and more curves plus natural beauty and brain's.. WOW 😍😍😍😍.
We miss you guys come back home 🇿🇦
Proud Bantu from the Kisii tribe of Kenya.
A proud Bantu From Central kenya East Africa, Ni Thaai
I now feel that I want to learn the language more than ever before, based on the way the history of its development was articulated here.
Proud that my Afrikan ancestry traces back to a Bantu tribe in Cameroon called the Tikar tribe. All the way from the USA, I got so much love for you momma Afrika, and am working on getting my family home.
l'm luhyia man from Kenya,proud of bantu people in Africa.
Proud to be Bantu from Uganda 🇺🇬
Proud bantu Mungala from 🇨🇬🇨🇩 from kongo
Great to connect with my fellow Bantu across-the-globe and I somehow knew we have them in Brazil 🇧🇷 and Haiti 🇭🇹 all the way to our family in Jamaica 🇯🇲
Most Afro Caribbeans and Brazilians are from West Africa; West Africa aren’t Bantu….
@@shangothunder1055 most Brazilians are from Angola and the Congo literally the dance Samba who originally mean “Semba” is literally from there.
@@yvans. Nope but a lot are. The most common culture & synchronized tearoom among many Afro Brazilians come from southern Nigeria in west Africa. The candomble Afro Brazilian culture is a mixture of Christian and Yoruba tradition. Many still believe in Yoruba deities.
