This is the third in a trilogy by the well-known African-American
scholar, Runoko Rashidi. In the first two volumes which have sold
well, Black Star: The African Presence in Early Europe, and African
Star over Asia: The African Presence in the East he interpreted the
work of earlier scholars and provided new evidence of the important
historical role of Black people in Europe and Asia. This new book
pays tribute to the great scholar, Ivan Van Sertima, author of They
Came before Columbus and founder of the Journal of African
Civilizations. It brings together the author's own research and
that of Van Sertima and other Black scholars including Chancellor
Williams, William Leo Hansberry, John G.Jackson and Cheikh Anta
Diop. It discusses the origins, the nature and the historical
development of the civilisations, providing details of the
dynasties. It throws light on African links with Sumer, South Asia
and, not least, the Olmec and their successors in Mexico. It
punctures several racial myths including those relating to
anthropological theory.
