Thank you Isaac your articles are always well received across Quora Spaces, dispelling ignorant and often racist assumptions about the African past, not only that, but it help others combatting ignorance on those spaces who tend to use ancient Egypt to combat these negative assumptions, as the only go to area of research, one of the eye opener for many is the Dar Titichitt complex , I always look forward to Mondays, again thank you.
I was also very intrigued by Dhar Tichitt when i first encountered it, which is when i realized how little was known about ancient Africa outside Egypt and nubia, and the need to highlight the history of the entire continent.
What a dazzlingly comprehensive overview. Perhaps you have already written this elsewhere, but I would love to get a recommended reading list from you the covers all the varying and disparate parts of this story at some point
Always appreciate your work. Keep it up! It’s such a precious resource for amateur historians like myself. As an African and a writer it gives me an alternative pathway for creative expression rather than just the usual European mode. Maybe one day knights and castles will share the stage in the popular imagination with griots and adobe desert libraries. And it won’t be simply another ‘exotic’ setting.

thank you, that is an interesting suggestion, I think I could compile the footnotes I've added below each article and arrange them chronologically.
This is amazing! I can't wait to dive in!
thank you
