jah, bl@me it on the bl@ck guy! This guy is just the s!gnatur3 sl@ve trying to pl3ase his m@sters!

khois@ns land is Cape town, Jan van Reebek and his th!ev3 first met the khoi khois, sh0rt and y3llow p3ople of the cape, then they sh0t and k!lled the sh0rt men and sl3pt with the sh0rt wom3n and pr0duce col0ureds to fill up the wh0le cape town and bey0nd. The pun@n! was so good they took khoi khoi wom3n home (Sarah Baardman case). That is why now if you take a look at people cla!ming to be khois@ns they are now t@ll, l!ght sk!n just like wh!te men.`

In Europe, when people heard about good pun@n! in Africa, Portugu3se turn their ships and landed in some part of Northen Cape (instant of brazil, Maxico etc), where they also met yell0w, sh0rt and m3dium height p3ople, which they c@lled H0ttent0ts, not knowing they met Batsw@na people)

Now since ap@rth3id was defeated, and people disputed Van Reebek st0ry of being the first man in Cape, wh!tes came with this k@k, that khoi khoi are the first south Africans.

You don't have a very high regard for black intellect. Can a black man do nothing to impress you?

The world underwent a lot of changes since the days of the Cradle. Most of the time the human race was simply trying to find somewhere that was not desert. That is why the migration of early man was in the direction of what we now call the Sahara desert. It was a lush place to live back then. It was only after the climate changed again and the races of mankind separated to the north and the south that language grew past the basics. Hence the majority of all human linguistic roots being so close to the Sahara desert

Those are not just bones but Africans ancestors. you see, wh!tes and the wh!te pleasers feed us lies until they uncovered the truth about our origins.

the craddle of humankind fact was discover in the 1970's -1980's. and the k@k was written about in the 1700's - 1800's.

You must really go and do research, Hominids may have lived all over Africa, but their remains are found only at sites where conditions allowed for the formation and preservation of fossils. The oldest bones of the modern man were actually found in Isreal, if I am not mistaken.

Tsope' - Like I said, because migration took thousands of years. At some stage, the world was one big continent (pangea), only later on did it break up. Then the end of the ice age came, and people were migrating north. Then, thousands of years later, the people migrated from the north down to the south.

This has nothing to do with sex. It has to do with the climate.
The north and south poles swap places at semi-regular intervals so the climate changes, Hence my question about if you know where oil comes from

Again, if the craddle of human kind is found in Mzansi, why will people of the south come from North?

Dude, just because they gave that place the name of Cradle of human kind does not mean it is true. Go and search for oldest human bones found.

I love this ad, but unfortunately a whole lot of SA's are ignorant ("Tsope" et al) - and just not educated enough to appreciate this ad, this is probably why the SABC and the others have refused to air the ad - which is probably the right thing to do - there's enough stupid people out there that might take the ad seriously and think it is a call to wipe out all the "foreigners" ...

It makes me laugh reading many of the comments about SA's being stiff and lacking a sense of humour, well i seem to differ here, there are lots of creative adverts out there but an advert that undermines a large portion of the nation is a total no and the Nando advert was just that.
The main idea is taken from the fact that some educated white archeologist have decided to come up with their own versions of how africa came to be and have falsely concluded that SA belongs to the San people as they claim they were the first here. well it can be funny when a joke like that is made by us blacks but like the guy admits that they give raw ideas to their creative minds, my take is this was intentionally done by some guy who wanted to hit 2 bird with one stone, advertise for nandos and feed us the propaganda that SA is not originally for blacks but the sans. I wonder what colour this fake archeolist see when they look at the bushman, white? maybe neutral? fake ass

Socrates and Tsope' you are so right. Some people are trying to create their own version of history.
First they said they were also African and now we Africans are also migrants in our land!

What is sad though is that we allow them to divide us. Fact is that we are indigenous to Africa - the lines/ boundries were created by whites when they colonised Africa. We now use those lines to fight among ourselves - whether you are a Zimbo, Nigerian or black South African, you did not come here on a ship and you are a child of the soil. ANC's Luthuli was born in Zimbabwe (to parents who had moved there from Natal). Whites always tried to tell him he was a foreigner!
And yes, The San are black and soo many of us also have San blood!

Tsope,

It is speculation not fact that the cradle of human kind was in SA.

Not even speculation, its Tsope just trying to brain wash all the poor sowetan blogers,
the oldest early human bones were discovered in Ethopia dating to around 5 billion yrs . The theory that all homosepians evolved from african homo erectus has also come under scrutiny by this find in that Neanderthals(european early homo erectus have no link to this bones, while it was earlier believed that african homo erectus killed all the Neanderthals when the distibuted out of africa. This means evolution must have happened at different places at differnt times and on different homids.

I support this questions introduced by this findings as I always belived me and the chinees peopl can never hav evolved from the same ape(wonder where this put the bible story of how life came to be(Adam and Eve both from Africa but their great grand kids somehow gave birth to kids of Chinees nature? never I always joked to amakholwa that europeans came from an ancestor of the European ape, while the same applies in africa and Asia

If it is the case that u hate me bringing the bible story here, then u got another one coming,

Bible people are all younger than this findings and the bible suggest we were born as complete humans, which can never b right as them archeologist just keep finding older fossils each year. I dont belive everything that the archeoligist claim about the findings but i believe on the results of the isotope age dating method used to date this fossils

no the Zulu stuff can not be clasified as tribal issues, its a plain joke known all over SA( a belief by people that Zulu people are more agressive)

u go tell me that the chain email saying Zulus r found in taxi ranks is an insult? well not to me and my Zulu friends, as we can see the funny part of this, but it definatley becomes an insult when said by people of colour especially those known to undermine blacks in general.
Just like I dont take offence from the book Capitalist N.igga writen by a fellow black man, but the same can not be said if the books was writen by Potgiter or Chang Chu or some other freek for that matter.

on the seriouse though, i think the capetonians are really trying hard to come with cape culture and identity, its just that the minority get to have the say that stays, We can move away from tribal and race issues if we can start developing cultures per city, as the rivalry will move away from colour to cities copleting against each other to be the best, provinces are just 2 large.
