- 50 Years of European Manichaeism
What European politicians and statesmen, intellectuals and philosophers tried to exorcise with the most ardent fervor is precisely what they have immutably been so far: Manichaean! Europe had tried in the past various forms of union; Roman Empire, Western Roman Empire, Eastern Roman Empire, Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation, Ottoman Empire (at its zenith it included territories belonging to no less than 19 European states of today), Empire of All the Russias, Napoleonic France, ............ - Ancient Harbours of Northern Somalia and Colonial Anti-African Historiography
Through the textual evidence offered by the author of the Periplus of the Red Sea, we realize that there was power centralization at Malao (today's Berbera), whereas Avalites (today's Assab) was a border point where fights and disputes happened frequently. - Aramaic: the Millennia Long Trajectory of the Global Language
Continuing our interview with Mr. Gabriel Sengo, Chairman of the Aram Nahrin Organization, we focus on issues pertaining to the History of Aramaic language, as well as to Modern Aramaic Literature, and Education in Aramaic. - Aramean – Armenian Massacres of the Ottoman Times: a Kurdish Responsibility
In the last part of his interview, Mr. Gabriel Sengo, Chairman of the Aram Nahrin Organization, unveils what remained hidden for too long, due to French and English Colonial trickery, duplicity and machinations. - Can we forget the Sabians of Eski Sumatar, Turkey?
A recent, long and multipartite discussion about the Sabians made me think one more time about the deep Western (European and American) ignorance of the misconceived and misrepresented (by them) Middle East. - Crassus Defeated at Carrhae – Part I. European Connections with Osrhoene
Modern Europeans and Americans should be more aware of, and more sensitive to, both the Aramaean dimension of the Middle East, and the European dimension of Osrhoene, a SE province of EU candidate member Turkey, where crucial events of European History took place, and top European interests have always been at stake. Down to our days! - Elizabeth II on the Throne of David and Solomon
At these times of useless divisions, it would be necessary for Northern Europeans and Americans to bear in mind that they are the descendents of two great peoples of the Ancient Oriental World, who merged and then migrated together: the Assyrians and the 10-tribed Israelites (that are not to be confused with the 2-tribed Jews). - Gabriel Sengo opens the Gates of Aramaean Thought, Culture and Wisdom
In this third part of Mr. Gabriel Sengo's interview's, we focus on issues related to Aramaean Wisdom, Science, Philosophy, Theology and Literature. The Chairman of the Aram Nahrin Organization presents a summarized outline of the Christian Aramaean contribution to the formation of the world civilization. - Hadhramawt, the 'Frankincense-bearing Country'
Hadhramawt was called by people living in the Mediterranean during the Late Antiquity in a purely narrative but most attractive way, the Frankincense-bearing country (in Greek: ‘he Libanotoforos Khora’). - Sailing around the Horn of Africa, before 2000 years
Completing the series of articles on the excerpts of the ‘Periplus of the Red Sea’ that bear evidence to the ‘Other Berberia’, a country that spanned from Eritrea’s Assab to the Somali harbour of Ras Hafun, we will focus here on the easternmost coasts of that land. - Sidama: the Paradise we lost, the Heaven we search for
My previous articles about the oppressed and tyrannized Sidamas of Abyssinia triggered a great interest among people from various Western backgrounds who have so far known Sidama as Starbucks brand name. - Socotra-Dioskouridou Island, Exemplary Multicultural Society of Past Times
Projected to the entire world, viewed at a global scale, the Soqotran model of multicultural society of the Antiquity must be widely studied, and adequately taught to all those who still believe – at the peril and prejudice of all the rest – that their traditions, beliefs, faiths, historical heritages, and cultures are superior than the others’. - Somalia as Part of the East – West Trade during the Antiquity
Beyond the ‘Akrotirion Aromaton’, the Cape of Spices as the Periplus names Cape Guardafui, Azania was extended down to Rhapta (in today’s Tanzania). Azania was colony of the Sabaean – Himyaritic kingdom of Kharibael, and plenty of details are given in the text. - Somalia, the Other Berberia, Abyssinia, Yemen and the Periplus of the Red Sea
The Yemenite kingdom of Sheba and Himyar and the Abyssinian kingdom of Axum, failed to put the area of Assab (Avalites) under control; it belonged to the Somalis of the 'Other Berberia'. - Ten Pillars of Education for Afghanistan
An analysis of the negative Colonial impact on Afghanistan, and several proposals for the introduction of a post-colonial educational system that will help modern Afghanis discover their multicultural identity, assess properly their great past, and envision a democratic future. - Ten Points about the Ethiopia / Abyssinia Predicament
As a wider interest concerning the Amhara / Tigray Abyssinian usurpation of the name of Ethiopia has been expressed recently by many readers who wrote to me in this regard, I present here ten points, explaining why the historically false cannot be politically correct. It is essential to understand that the use of the name ‘Ethiopia’ by Abyssinia is an explicit wish of the Pan-Arabist rulers, as it helps ‘arabize’ Sudan, the real – geographically speaking – Ethiopia. - The Anti-Macedonian Hysteria of the Neo-Nazi Greeks
The recently published article on the historical differences between Macedonia and Greece generated great debates; their utility in revealing the Neo-Nazi Greeks and their approach to history falsification that can generate wars and wars is exemplary. This calls for a study through the lines of a text, and for its refutation! - The Macedonians, the Greeks, and the Communists
The Balkan peninsula has long been considered as Europe's tinderbox; and with good reason! With so many languages, ethnic groups (or peoples), and religious systems, the Balkans lived their most peaceful period of their millennia long history during the Ottoman rule that last lasted between 400 and 600 years (per different regions). - The Meroitic Origin of the Oromos, and the Christianization of Africa
Fresh post-colonial approaches to African History focus on early stages of christianization of Africa, Egypt and Abyssinia, and find there the reasons of the Meroitic emigration to present day (Biyya) Oromo land. - The Oromos: Abyssinia's oppressed majority in search of Post-Colonial Historiography
For whatever goes beyond the horizon of the year 1500 CE little is known about the Oromos, a Kushitic people that forms the largest ethnic – linguistic group in today's Abyssinia. In this article, we intend to illuminate key issues related to modern historiography, and to our approach to Ancient History. - The Search for Turkey's Identity and Real Soul
In this article, we will focus on the critical issue of the Cultural – National – Historical considerations that will help the Turkish Secular – Democratic establishment get Turkey rid of the Erdogan pestilence. - The West's Classical Values, and the Clash of Civilizations
In fact, the Mankind’s worst enemy can hardly be identified with religious extremism, fanaticism, irredentism, and overt terrorism; these threats are certainly very real, but far worse than all of them combined is the provenly reduced ability of the Mankind to see clearly, understand correctly, and perceive accurately. - The West’s Ethiopian Aberration: the kingdom of Priest John between Myth and Reality
In fact, there has never been a Kingdom of the Priest John in Africa! In this article, we will make a vast itinerary in the legendary topology that played a determinant role in the Colonial European approach to the heretical, Monophysitic kingdom of Abyssinia. - What is in a Name? German NGO accepts Aramaean Nation, rejects 'Assyrian' Misnomer!
After 30 years of mistaken predilection for the fallacious terms 'Assyrian' and 'Chaldaean' for the great historical nation of Aramaeans of the Middle East, the famous and otherwise respectable German NGO “Gesellschaft fuer Bedrohte Voelker“ (The Society For Threatened Peoples) comes to the correct conclusion, admitting the mistake, and denouncing the destructive, suicidal role that the self-styled 'Assyrian' political group played against the Aramaean Nation. - Yemen's Historical Vocation in the Red Sea, and the Periplus of the Red Sea
To envision present and future potentialities, it is essential to delve first into the Yemenite past. The ‘Periplus of the Red Sea’, an Ancient Greek text written by an Alexandrian Egyptian of the times of the Roman Emperor Nero, refers to the Yemenite coast from al Mokha to Aden, and to Perim Island, constituting therefore a major point of historical reference. - Yemen’s Historical Prevalence in the Red Sea Straits Area
The ‘Periplus of the Red Sea’, an Ancient Greek text written by an Alexandrian Egyptian of the times of the Roman Emperor Nero, refers to the Yemenite coast around the Bab el Mandeb straits at the southernmost end of the Red Sea. The current realities at the strategic area of the Bab al Mandeb straits at the southern end of the Red Sea can be better assessed through the study of this 20-century old text. - Zakay Joseph, Urfa – Urhoy – Edessa, and the Aramaean Intellectuals
The new website urhoy.info is a genuine hub of Aramaean History, Culture and Initiation; it is all due to the remarkable labour of the young Aramaean intellectual Zakay Joseph, who deployed a great part of effort to prepare a website specialized on the great Aramaean city Urhoy that in the Late Antiquity was known as Edessa of Osrhoene to Greeks and Romans.
