Africa, over the years, has been denied her place in world history. Africa's contribution to the world history of humankind is unparalleled. Yet, some people write and portray Africa as though she has no history and no historical accomplishments; and some even go to the length of questioning what Africa has done to contribute to human civilization and history. What is often forgotten is that Africa is the mother of humankind as well as civilizations. It was her children who left the continent of Africa and peopled other parts of the world, as well as bringing civilizations to wherever they settled. In this book, the author places Africa in her proper place of world history and civilizations. In this revised second edition of the first volume, the author treats other important topics as the African origin of writing and vehicular technology ("wheel" and "car"), etc. The reader may contact the first edition of volume 1 for African civilizations outside Africa. Also, for the genetic and linguistic evidence, the reader may contact volume 3: "The Genetics, Linguistics, (and Writing Systems) Evidence".
