Sacred scriptures 🙏 When you look up biblical languages like Aramaic and Hebrew you learn that in ancient times they fall into the category of Afro-Asiatic and Ethiopian is as well yet it also is Cushitic. And Nubia is included in that and they all had different scripts which resemble different languages from around the GLOBE which shows you that at one point in history thousands of years ago there was a global society that understood one language yet still had their own native languages. History repeats itself.

true. History is mostly stories retold.
