By not really getting started, to begin with, Africa may be the Birthplace of the Species but they have never really used that to there advantage - Part of this is environmental and part of this is cultural they haven't had a stable period even before pre European contact long enough for any real society to form in any meaningful way and allow for specialisation beyond the basic groups needed for day to day life.

Egypt, Kush, Nubia, Abyssinia, Ghana, Mali, Axum, Benin? Africa birthed plenty of great civilisations and you're racist for not knowing that.

And when one investigates one finds way more Arab or European influence then sub Saharan.
 
In ancient Egypt? You're dumb.

"The genomes showed that, unlike modern Egyptians, ancient Egyptians had little to no genetic kinship with sub-Saharan populations, some of which like ancient Ethiopia were known to have had significant interactions with Egypt."

http://www.cnn.com/2017/06/22/health/ancient-egypt-mummy-dna-genome-heritage/index.html

"Researchers from the University of Tuebingen and the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Human History in Jena, both in Germany, have decoded the genome of ancient Egyptians for the first time, with unexpected results.
Publishing its findings in Nature Communications, the study concluded that preserved remains found in Abusir-el Meleq, Middle Egypt, were closest genetic relatives of Neolithic and Bronze Age populations from the Near East, Anatolia and Eastern Mediterranean Europeans."
 
How come you never hear about some group that deserves it being targeted over some stupid belief, like idk maybe drowning pedophiles to stop famine? Hanging poachers for good luck? But no, instead you always hear about stuff like torturing children for water, or killing bald men to find gold, or killing albino people for whatever purpose that's supposed to serve.
The point of making sacrifices is giving something that is perceived as valuable, rare or pure. Otherwise witch doctors would just offer road kill aimals and mormon missionaries.
 
Nope. Earliest civilizations were in the Neolithic period and that was Europe/China.

First humans were Europeans not Africans.

You're making an absolute statement and citing an article which clearly states a mere possibility. The headline even has the word "may" in it. The article itself repeatedly refers to what the researchers "think" and cites other researchers who disagree with and criticize their findings. It's absurd to post that as if it definitely proves the absolute conclusion you are stating without qualification.

I don't particularly care about this subject and it doesn't make much practical difference to me where our common ancestors originated from. I'm open to the possibility they were from the Mediterranean. But holy crap; your logical reasoning and reading comprehension skills are consistently non-existent, and you always present yourself as an expert on everything and don't learn in spite of repeatedly making a fool of yourself.

You could state that water's a liquid and people would still rate you dumb because you're so insufferable about it tbh.
