The Fall Of The Black King- Part 1.


Taharqa, the great Nubian King of Egypt and Sudan in all his glory.


Piankhi The Nubian, the founder of the 25th dynasty of Egypt who ruled Egypt from the of Napata, located deep in Nubia, now Sudan. The Lord of Two Lands accomplished many great feats in his 35 years of reign. Buried in an Egyptian-styled Pyramid, something that was not done in the past 500 years, this showed the depth of his rule. Erased from the books of history for millennia's, there lays only one evidence of his existence on statues.. one that only shows his feet. We are left with the detail that his skin was of black color. During the 25th dynasty, the Nubian pharaohs brought reunification to Egypt that was torn during the time.





You may wonder why that information was provided, and shared. It is very important to know where your history, and ancestry lies. This determines the stature that your generation will be judged on. Reality of the situation is, memories of the black king just lie in the paintings, and minds of people who are intrigued by the subjects.

The evils of man haunt the mind of the innocent when brought in front of them. The test provided to the African continent was rapid, and re-occuring.  Rich in minerals, knowledge, and labor. The vices of men turned fair trade into something that was turned to overtaking land with swords. Egyptian pharaoh's hired Greek mercenaries to fight off the Persians, and the turn of Alexander The Great conquering Egypt. Sands of time leap on to other sides at times, and may not favor those who it once stood by. As the Romans held Egypt for 700 years, the Arabs conquered it as well.

With the country being tossed to the conquerors, history is written by the victor.
