Black God
Julian Baldick
It is argued that just as there is a common Afroasiatic language
family, so too there is a common Afroasiatic family of religions. There
is an inner logic to be found in myths, folk-tales, rituals, customs and
beliefs as far apart as Yemen and Nigeria which go back to an ancient
past shared by the Bible and the pharaohs.
Using the method of
comparative mythology, the author sifts through the work of scholars -
including anthropologists, religious historians, archaeologists and
classical Greek writers and contemporary comments on them by
professional Egyptologists - to build his picture of the Afroasiatic
heritage, and how much of it is still with us in modern Western thought.
