Talk:Classical African civilization

There is No Disagreement About Where Classical Civilizations Are
There is no disagreement among European scholars as to where and When Classical European Civilization comes into recorded history. There is also no disagreement Among African Scholars as to where and When Classical African Civilization comes into recorded history. See The Association for the Study of Classical African Civilizations ASCAC.

Have all these been called "Classical African civlization"?
I think sources should be provided that all these kingdoms and civilizations are called "Classical African civilization" scholars/historians. AnwarSadatFan (talk) 17:32, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

Accuracy Regarding Recorded History
Kemet prior to and during Classical European Civilization, Greece/Rome.

Classical African Civilization proper, Kemet (Nubia/Ancient Egypt) comes into recorded history according to most "main stream" Western Egyptologist at c. 3,300 B.C.E. (corrected from the old 3,100 B.C.) I Call this the Western short date. The Kametans themsleves date their civilization at c. 35,000 B.C.E. I call this the primary long date. Harmaket (The Sphinx) has been dated at c. 10.000 by geologist I call this the scientific compromise date.

Even if you take the short date, for the sake of argument, The first Greek book does not come into recorded history for thousands of years after the African pyramids are built and most of the important books on Kemetic cosmologies are written.

War with Emperor Augustus
I rememeber a memorial stone in Africa commemorating the victory over the Romans during the Reign of Augustus (not long after the beginning of his reign). It was not an uprising of previously conquered territory though, but more of a border dispute. As far as I remember it wasn't a major conflict from the Roman point of view, but it still requires quite some organisation to drive back even minor forces of the Roman empire and create a memorial stone in two or more languages. I'd like to know if one of the civilisations mentioned here (it certainly was not Egypt) was involved or if it was one that is not named here, but possibly should be.--2001:16B8:71C6:9700:B5A2:3ECF:9E4E:7329 (talk) 21:50, 29 June 2020 (UTC)
