WHO ARE THE AFAR PEOPLE?

[@ronaldmadziro5679]

They are beautiful people,it’s great seeing them being proud of who they are and willing to preserve their way of life.

[@so9487]

Indeed they are.

[@freedomsong9747]

Because they are the ancient egyptians

[@chizirada865]

Africa is an amalgamation of two words. Afar and ricca. The Afar are a Cushitic people who live in North East Africa. Their folklore says they once lived in Egypt during the times of the pharaohs. Indeed, in those ancient times Egypt extended from the north African Mediterranean coast to Puntland in East Africa. You can Google "images of the Afar people" to see how much they resemble the images of the murals in ancient Egyptian and Sudanic tombs and temples. It is the Romans who coined the name Africa meaning the rich land of the Afar. Much like America is an amalgamation of the name Amerigo, the Italian explorer and ricca, Costa Rica, Puerto Ricco etc.

[@averyjarrett7299]

If you learn more history you will realize they are among the tribes of people who are the ancient Egyptians.

"Afar" isn't pronounced how westerns pronounce it. The necessary sound to properly pronounce "Afar" is not present in the English language. Afar is pronounced with the sound ʿayn found in related Cushitic languages like Saho Af, Af Somali, Afaan Oromo, and local semitic languages like Af Tigrigna & Af Amharignna. This sound is also percent in Arabic & represented by the letter ع‎. Not to mention the "r" in Afar is pronounced with rolling the r. Something also not found in English! When Afar is properly pronounced, it sounds nothing like the English term for something very distant.

Africa derivates from Afri/Ifri, a lybico-berber godess. Afar people don't call themselves Afar but Adal. Herodotus wrote that Afar is a name given by Garamantes (a southeastern lybico-berber people) to Afar because they lived in caves. And in garamante language, afar means who lives in caves. Ifri is a famous drink from north-africa.

[@chizirada865]

You are free to have your theory. The Afar call themselves Afar not Adal. There are no caves in north east Africa. The Berbers are of west Asian origin and they are therefore foreigners to north Africa. Why would the Romans use an obscure Berber goddess's name to describe an entire continent? The images of the Cushite Afar people are the plastered all over the murals of the Nilo Sudanese-Egyptian civilization in north east Africa.
