Topic: Two story buildings and wheels

Anonymous A started this discussion 2 hours ago #134,054

I’ve seen people say on the internet that Africans didn’t have two story buildings or wheels before Europeans. The ancient Egyptians fought with chariots so I was confused about the wheel thing.

But anyway, I was looking into pre-colonial Nigerian architecture, and ironically if you look online for pictures of what the Hausa people’s traditional homes looked like:

They had two floors

I just find it really dumb people say that Africans didn’t build two story buildings because they were stupid, and yet, it only took a single google search to find that Nigerians (where African Americans originally came from) traditionally lived in two story houses before contact with Europeans.

Like… the level of irony in calling black people stupid for not building two story houses when people can’t fucking google what an traditional African house looks like.

Or saying that Africa was in the "Stone Age" before Europeans got there, but sub Saharan Africas had swords though… so how does that work?

Just primitive tribal people living in the Stone Age making bronze busts of their monarchs… because that’s a thing tribal people who don’t have governments living in the Stone Age do

They literally worshiped a god of war, iron, and technology… but I’m supposed to believe these people didn’t value the concept of inventing things.
