Hillary and Pelosi. Just goes to show how old they really are!!!.
Mom was right!
Some Afrocentrists claim that the Olmec heads show Black African features meaning that Africans reached prehistoric Mexico. They don’t explain the lack of any other evidence for African presence in Mexico or anywhere else in the New World. The Cape Verde Islands were uninhabited when the Portuguese discovered them. Madagascar was first colonized by people from what is now Indonesia. Ancient Africans don’t appear to have been big on ocean voyages.
I can’t figure out how archaeologists figure this stuff out.
