The motives behind "Black Athena" were political rather than scientific, and so facts and science are irrelevant to this type of so-called "scholar."
“Black Athena”. I read the first 2 volumes of that book in grad school (the second time around, reliving stress from the dissertation).

He got those entirely wrong. Can’t tell you what anymore, this was 1995, but it was total BS.
