The Dogon tribe in northwestern Africa have a lot of very old astronomical lore, particularly relating to the star Sirius. The also relate this to the Pale Fox. I am going to try to find the book I read where I read about this and see if there could be any connection.
I also wonder if this time was significant to these people because of the worldwide astronomical(?) catastrophe that seemed to occur around this time.
Dogon tribe.
not sure what to believe of that story.
I read that later researchers asked the Dogon whether it was really true that the believed in all that stuff, and the Dogon claimed that they didnt knew what they where talking about.
So basically you only have that first guy who wrote the book as evidence. He ofcourse claimed that it was secret information that the Dogon only gave to him and now would surely deny.
So.....
