The pyramids were not built by the Arabs who later came into Egypt. They were built by the ancient Egyptians of Kemet roughly 4,500 years ago — nearly 3,000 years before the Arab conquest of Egypt.
Kemet was an African civilization with advanced knowledge of architecture, mathematics, astronomy, medicine, spirituality, and government. Long before Greece and Rome rose to power, Egypt had already built monuments, recorded history, studied the stars, and developed systems of knowledge that influenced the world.
Greek and Roman civilizations later borrowed from Egyptian knowledge, including ideas connected to science, philosophy, architecture, religion, and timekeeping. Even the modern calendar traces part of its roots back to ancient Egyptian astronomy and calendar systems.
That is why we have to be careful when people try to rewrite Africa’s history. Too often, the truth is hidden, watered down, or disconnected from its African roots. Our ancestors were not primitive. They were builders, thinkers, healers, astronomers, and leaders.
As Black people, we were among the first of God’s creation — rooted in ancient wisdom, strength, and divine purpose. We come from greatness. We come from people who studied the heavens, built wonders, and shaped civilization before many others even had written records.
As Scripture says, “the last shall be first, and the first last.” History may have tried to bury the truth, but the truth always rises again.
