Ah yes, the “Black Athena” theory. Not only did the Ancient Greeks steal all the amazing black technologies and sciences, they hip-mo-tized all of them to forget any of that ever existed.
Not too shabby for a small group of ignorant white savages pulling off the greatest heist in the history of mankind.
Heh, I hadn’t been thinking of that, but good call. My favorite iteration of that has the Greeks stealing all the Egyptian (African) wisdom and learning from the Great Library of Alexandria — despite the fact that said library was built by Ptolemy, one of the Greek rulers of Egypt in a city built and named for Alexander the Great.
The most idiotic example of Afrocentric scholarship I have seen is a short article entitled “Who Homer Really Was.” The author (a black woman) claims that Homer’s poems were written by a committee of black Egyptian scholars.
