בראשית
"Beresh*t" (GENESIS) to "Kemgbeshi"

THEORY: The Hebrew word "Beresh*t" (GENESIS) is a cognate of Igbo word, "Kemgbeshi"

The book of was originally written in Biblical Hebrew. Its Hebrew title is BERESH*T, which means "In the beginning". "Genesis" comes from the ancient translation (the Septuagint) meaning birth or origin.

If we look past the Greek word Genesis, and dive straight into the Hebrew root of BE-RESH*T, we find a fascinating linguistic blueprint that can be beautifully decoded using deep Igbo cosmology and etymology.

Here is how the root meanings of seamlessly align with Igbo:

1. Bé (or Mgbe) = Igbo for 'Abode' (or 'Time')

In Hebrew, the prefix "Be"- means "In" or "At." In Central and Southern Igbo dialects, "Bé" signifies "home" or "abode," while "Mgbe" means "Time".

2. Eshi = Igbo for Time Immemorial or Ancient Ancestor (שִׁית)

The core of the word Beresh*t is "Rosh", which means head, beginning or chief point". In Igbo, this is perfectly mirrored by the word Eshi / Eri. In older Igbo dialects (like Orlu and parts of Greater Isu), the word ESHI refers to "deep, ancient time" or "Primordial Ancestor". The Igbo phrase, Kamgbe-Eshi or
Kemgbeshi means "since time immemorial" or "since the time of the primordial ancestors."

FINAL SYNTHESIS:

When you piece these phonetic and conceptual roots together, the Hebrew 'Be-resh*t' beautifully translates in deep Igbo to "Be " — meaning "Abode of the Primordial Ancestors" OR "Mgbe Eshi" — which literally means "At the Time of the Primordial Ancestors".

Thus, Hebrew "Beresh*t" is simply a cognate of Igbo "Kemgbeshi" Or "Mgbeshi"

MOTHERISM: The Afrocentric Alternative to Feminism (Women in Environmental Development Series)

In , Prof. Catherine Acholonu critiques Western for encouraging African women to reject traditional roles such as “mothering, nurturing, caring and childbearing", describing RADICAL WESTERN FEMINISM AS “ANTI-MOTHER, ANTI-CHILD, ANTI-NATURE AND ANTI-CULTURE” (p. 82).

She contrasts this with traditional African societies, where men and women shared complementary responsibilities in productive, economic and family life. Men engaged in farming, hunting, fishing and herding, while women processed food, traded and cared for children; in some activities, both participated jointly (p. 42).

Prof. Acholonu also cautions against scholarship that selectively presents African realities to validate Western assumptions (p. 86). She argues that African feminism “must carve out its own identity,” rooted in Africa’s history and worldview (p. 104). Her proposed way forward is Motherism—an African alternative founded on motherhood, nature, “love, tolerance, service, and mutual cooperation,” rather than antagonism between the sexes (pp. 108–112). For Prof. Catherine Acholonu, the rediscovery of motherhood, nurturing, cultural identity and partnership offers a more distinctly African feminist path.

ICHI IS THE IGBO MARK OF , the spiritual emblem of the god-man, the sun king, and the light bearer.

As a form of facial scarification, it was traditionally worn by noblemen and by those initiated into the esteemed 'Nze na ' society. However, Ichi is more than a tribal mark. Our ancestors inscribed it on many objects, and in doing so, bestowed upon them a stamp of sacredness and holiness. It could be found on doors, chairs, and other items used in daily life.

By marking themselves and their objects with , they projected themselves as a holy people, a holy race.

Igbo ichi symbol not only appears as the ZIGZAG but also as the symbol/letter X as in slide 3 & slide 2 (item a,b,d). Ichi occurs as stripes and as palm frond- or V-SHAPED clusters, as in slide 2 (item c,e,f) & slides 5,6,7,8 which is coincidentally the pronunciation 'Shi'.

The X ichi symbol was also written in the form of a CROSS or a QUADRANGLE (four-sided shape), as in slide 2 (item b) which shows the relationship between a cross and a square: A square is actually an equal-armed cross.

The LORD OF ANIMALS or MISTRESS OF THE ANIMALS motif is an ancient mythological theme that depicts a central figure flanked by and grasping two animals.
• Prof. 's research suggests that one ofthe hallmark achievements of King Gilgamesh in his epic journey was “his battle with lions, which (as Sitchen observes) has been commemorated pictorially, not only in Mesopotamia, but throughout the ancient world.”

THE REAL FACE OF THE PHAROAHS BEFORE THE HYKSOS INVASION!!

Merlin Stone, in his research, argued that “Par-O (Pharaoh) applies only to Ancient Kemetic Kings rather than to the royal house”, which could make it a direct derivative of Igbo 'Opara' – ‘Heir Apparent’.

HOW?

"Pharaoph" parallels the Igbo word for First Son / Rightful King - which is or Okwara.

Osiris called the resident God of the Underworld “Head of the Great House”. The Egyptian word for ‘Great House’ is Pharaoh. It refers to the lineage of ‘First Kings’, which in Igbo land and in Egypt is primogenic. In the context that the Igbo are Beings of Light, the word for this concept is 'Opara-Ihe', which is equivalent to ’s Pharaoh.

Okwara, in Igbo, can be broken down into two words: Ọkwa (rank, hierarchy or status) & Ra (supreme Sun god). Thus, Okwara literally translates to STATUS OF RA.

From this can be seen that Royal houses like the UMU-EZEORA of - direct sons of the Sun-god Eri - have their origins in the ‘Lineage of the Ancient Sun-King/World Emperor’

Africa is the cradle of mankind but beyond that, our research has shown that global civilization has its roots in Black Africa, specifically Igbo land.

Igbo people were the autochthonous people; the earliest godmen, the forest people, yet they lay claim to Jewish ancestry and origins.

We are hereby using this medium to discountenance this claim and enlighten Igbos of their true identity!

In ancient texts, there are images of the sun, known as Ra (Igbo Ora) flanked by a crescent 🌙 moon. This translates to the moon representing the Mother Goddess, Nut, protecting and enveloping herself around her son, OSIRIS/RA/ASHURU, represented by the Sun. It is the DUat of .

Lying at DUnu Oka (from which DUat is derived) is a vast prehistoric , with a dot, the sun in the centre, which the natives call OSHURU. It is flanked by a curved slag, like a crescent. It is the crescent , as illustrateded in ancient texts. The natives claim the presence of the Mother Goddess there!

In 2012, Prof Catherine Acholonu discovered unbeknown to the natives, that Dunu Oka, located at Lejja, , Enugu State, was housing the most ancient and, globally, most famous, most sought-after Shrine of Antiquity, known in world mythologies as the Egyptian Temple of the Sun, the Duat or Heliopolis.

By connecting the images found in ancient texts with the physical landmarks at the site, Prof made the shocking discovery that Dunu Oka site was indeed said to be lost in antiquity!
