can you explain to me why sub-saharan africans never developed complex culture or beyond mere subsistence tribalism until their introduction by european colonialism in the 18th century? please do not try to argue that either the egyptians or the moors are of their swart race. why have sub-saharan africans never contributed to world culture or any art of lasting value? i can name artists and great civilizations from every major continent and time period, including pre-colombian america. but what of the africans? here we find a great wasteland.

in the past you had a beard, and you stood around listing shps, or possibly walls, and who build the walls and why. people were really stupid back then, and thought beards Signified in a special french way, and walls were magical? because everyone was arab and lived in a swamp. and people would listen to you, with their arab swamp stink, because you knew the secret of te wall, and had a beard. also you probably had a gay lute, made out of Cats. but Capitalism has changed all that. now you have to pay exhorbitant sums to remove your beard, because they no longer SSignify, but also walls are no longer magical things people sing gay songs about in various forms of verse. most people understand walls and their construction, in fact if you think about it you might even say, wwe have wall–aournd our souls. it’s pretty heavey to think about, much like the first song off classic 1999 album “the soft bulletein” from the flaming lips. yours –lyle

Environmental argument: Tropical disease epidemics make higher population densities dangerous, so sub-Saharan cultures developed dispersed low-density settlements. Urbanization is usually associated with cultural and technological progress. Extensive agriculture is also necessary for our definition of a complex culture, but sleeping sickness is a good example of why that didn't take off (sleeping sickness kills cattle). If you want an example of complex culture then I guess you could look into the history of Indian Ocean trade. Idk that's not really my thing, but the ocean trade along the eastern coast of the continent led to a lot of cultural exchange.

I didn't read all of Guns Germs and Steel but at the beginning he talks about the fact that Eurasia and to a lesser extent North America lie on an east west axis, while Africa and South America lie on a more north-south axis. This means that it was easier for domesticated species to become widespread on the east-west continents because there was a narrower range of latitudes and thus less variation in the climate, while north-south continents you had many latitudes where beneficial species couldn't survive. Then there was also just the natural evolutionary history of the continents where areas that would eventually produce white people just by chance had a better mix of species for domestication. It was not just animal species, but also food crops. Certain crops on certain continents had more complete nutritional value for sustaining large populations. Basically it sounds like there were a bunch of little natural advantages that weren't a huge deal but that snowballed over time and then when you throw in colonialism, conquest, slavery, and war and you get what we have today.

The oldest abstract art in the world is a shell necklace dated 82,000 years in the Cave of Pigeons in Taforalt, eastern Morocco. The second oldest abstract form of art and the oldest rock art is found in the Blombos Cave at the Cape in South Africa, dated 77,000 years. Sub-Saharan Africa has some of the oldest and most varied style of rock art in the world. Although Sub-Saharan African art is very diverse there are some common themes. One is the use of the human figure. Second, there is a preference for sculpture. Sub-Saharan African art is meant to be experienced in three dimensions, not two. A house is meant to be experienced from all angles. Third, art is meant to be performed. Sub-Saharan Africans have specific name for masks. The name incorporates the sculpture, the dance, and the spirit that incorporates the mask. The name denotes all three elements. Fourth, art that serves a practical function, utilitarian. The artist and craftsman are not separate. A sculpture shaped like a hand can be used as a stool. Fifth, the use of fractals or non-linear scaling. The shape of the whole is the shape of the parts at different scales. Before the discovery of fractal geometry], Louis Senghor, Senegal's first president, referred to this as "dynamic symmetry." William Fagg, the British art historian, compared it to the logarithmic mapping of natural growth by biologist D’Arcy Thompson. Lastly, Sub-Saharan African art is visually abstract, instead of naturalistic. Sub-Saharan African art represents spiritual notions, social norms, ideas, values, etc. An artist might exaggerated the head of a sculpture in relations to the body not because he does not know anatomy but because he wants to illustrate that the head is the seat of knowledge and wisdom. The visual abstraction of African art was very influential in the works of modernist artist like Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, and Jacques Lipchitz.
