| Helen of Troy |
Would the real Helen
of Troy smile for her portrait painting? |
Greek Mythology is categorized as a "myth" by White
scholars because it is
really about stolen African Antiquity?
|
I have just seen previews for the movie Troy, and for the life
of me I cannot see any reference to the fact that the King of Troy was the uncle
of the King of Ethiopia and that the same Black King of Ethiopia came to help
defend Troy with 10,000 Ethiopian men! (Note: In African
history it is recorded as 200,000 men--maybe that is the myth--ha! ha!) |
In May 2004 the movie
Troy was released. The Battle of Troy is based on Greek
Mythology--meaning myth. The Battle of Troy is listed in African
Antiquity as a part of African History. In 1193 B.C., Prince Paris
(Bloom) of Troy stole the beautiful Greek woman, Helen (Kruger), away from
her husband, Menelaus, the king of (Ethiopia) Sparta, setting the two
nations at war with each other, as the Greeks began a bloody siege of Troy
using their entire armada, led by Achilles (Brad Pitt), that lasted over a
decade.
In African History:
1184-1174 BCE Trojan War. King Priam of Troy
and many Trojans are under siege by "Sea Peoples" including Myceneans,
Pelesgians, Acheaens, etc. Africans fight on both sides. Amazons fight on
Trojan side. Memnon, the African King of Ethiopian and brother to Emathion,
King of Ethiopia arrives from Susa with 200,000 African troops to defend Troy and is
killed by Achilles.
Memnon, King of Ethiopia, in Greek mythology, to be exact in
Homer's Iliad, where he leads an army of Elamites and Ethiopians
to the assistance of King Priam in the Trojan War. His expedition is said to
have started from the African Ethiopia and to have passed through Egypt on the
way to Troy. According to Herodotus, Memnon was the founder of Susa, the chief
city of the Elamites. "There were places called Memnonia supposed to have been built by him both in Egypt and at Susa; and
there was a tribe called Memnones at Moroe. Memnon thus unites the eastern with
the western Ethiopians. (Ancient Monarchies, Vol. I, Chap. 3.)
Abyssinia was an extensive territory in East Africa that
is known today as Ethiopia. In ancient times Ethiopia extended over vast
domains in both Africa and Asia. Classical historians and geographers called
the whole region from India to Egypt, both countries inclusive, by the name
of Ethiopia. They regarded all the dark-skinned and black peoples who
inhabited it as Ethiopians.
