Uh, no again, Carthage, a brief history:
The city of Carthage (/ˈkɑrθɪdʒ/) was the centre of the Carthaginian Empire in antiquity. The city developed from a Phoenician colony of the 1st millennium BC into the capital of an ancient empire.[2]
The name of Carthage, Latin: Carthago or Karthago, Ancient Greek: Καρχηδών Karkhēdōn, Etruscan: *Carθaza, is derived from a Phoenician 𐤕𐤔𐤃𐤇 𐤕𐤓𐤒 Qart-ḥadašt[3] meaning "New City" (Aramaic: קרתא חדתא*, Qarta Ḥdatha), implying it was a 'new Tyre'.[4]
The first civilization that developed within the city's sphere of influence is referred to as Punic (a form of the word "Phoenician") or Carthaginian. The city of Carthage is located on the eastern side of Lake Tunis across from the centre of Tunis. According to Greek historians, Carthage was founded by Canaanite-speaking Phoenician colonists from Tyre (in modern Lebanon) under the leadership of Queen Elissa or Dido. It became a large and rich city and thus a major power in the Mediterranean. The resulting rivalry with Syracuse, Numidia, and Rome was accompanied by several wars with respective invasions of each other's homeland.
Hannibal's invasion of Italy in the Second Punic War culminated in the Carthaginian victory at Cannae and led to a serious threat to the continuation of Roman rule over Italy; however, Carthage emerged from the conflict weaker after Hannibal's defeat at the Battle of Zama in 202 BC. Following the Third Punic War, the city was destroyed by the Romans in 146 BC. However, the Romans refounded Carthage, which became the empire's fourth most important city and the second most important city in the Latin West. It later became the capital of the short-lived Vandal kingdom. It remained one of the most important Roman cities until the Muslim conquest, when it was destroyed a second time in 698.
The ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle wrote extensively on Carthaginian politics, and he considered the city to have one of the best governing institutions in the world, along with those of the Greek states of Sparta and Crete.[5][6]
Tunis, TUNISIA, there were also big buidings like those pictured in this thread. Northern AFRICA.
Many of the cited African languages date back longer than two centuries:
Old Nubian language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sudan has had written language for 15 centuries. In some African nations the written language of the inhabitants was destroyed by barbarians, only fragments remain.
The early Bantu speakers wrote in hieroglyphacs.

Bantu is the language of several ancient societies in SUB-SAHARAN Africa.
"They inhabit a geographical area stretching east and southward from Central Africa across the African Great Lakes region down to Southern Africa.[1] Bantu is a major branch of the Niger-Congo language family spoken by most populations in Sub-Saharan Africa. There are about 650 Bantu languages by the criterion of mutual intelligibility,[2] though the distinction between language and dialect is often unclear, and Ethnologue counts 535 languages.[3]"
A complex and difficult to learn ancient language system; vocal inflection imparts differing meanings, the barbarians of course could not learn such a difficult language, thus the destruction of many manuscripts.

We need credible people. There is no evidence of Bigfoot. Stop watch the Discovery Channel.

Whats nonsense about it? DNA evidence is not nonsense. Someone claiming they saw Bigfoot and you using them as a credible source is nonsense. You will never live that down. Never.
The funniest thing I have ever heard was that white people migrated to Egypt before suntan lotion was invented and built a civilization in the desert instead of doing it in England where the weather was was cooler. That shit cracks me up every time.
