From the book African Canaanites by Akan Takruri
The Island country Cyprus is located in the Mediterranean sea. Early settlements of humans seem to have either been related to the Nautufians, that were centered close by. I say this due to the farming agriculture found at the archaeology sites. Some of the agriculture found includes, cereals, lentils, beans, peas, and bullace. Animals eaten at the site include, deer, goats, sheeps, mouflon and pigs. Red deer, roe deer, and a horse was found as well. At those ancient times humans hunted horses as well.
Cyprus goes back to 8,000bc, in a time period of only people of color sharing the same DNA. Agriculture was in use at Cyprus in this time period.
They brought with them dogs, sheep, goats ,cattle, pigs foxes and wild deer. This society burned lime which was popular in East Africa. Ethiopia is said to have had an unlimited supply of limestone. This is said to have been the building materials for some of the pyramids.
The men in the community were hunters and farmers, and the woman stay at home and did at home activities like weave cloth.
The wells that were found at this sites location are thought to be the oldest wells in the world. They date back to 10,500 years.
At a burial site a cat was found buried with its owner. This burial dates back to 9,500 years ago.Near the south coast of Cyprus. There was a community that had nearly fifty houses, and 4000 residents. These houses usually had a single room that had its own hearth, benches, platforms and partitions that provided working places.
By 3800bc an earthquake destroyed this community. Despite the earthquake this community, regrouped and continued on. With later findings of use of copper work in this community.
Later on down the line you can see this community forming into one that had a social political construct. You see with the burials, there were differences in social class. You find some bodies buried filled with valuable items, and some where only the body itself remained.
Cyprus is so closely geographically situated next to Canaan/Phoenicia that I wanted to take a look at their religion and language and see if I find any African similarities, or similarities with Phoenicia
