Please assist. I think I need the true meaning/definition of “attested”. When a language is attested does it mean it is “spoken” or something else?

The Medew Neter of Mathematics
Is Mathematics the language of the universe? Dr. Theophile Obenga defines a language as nothing more than “Voice Sounds in combinations and patterns to express and communicate thoughts and feelings”. The common feeling the thought of Mathematics communicates amongst many people is fear. I like the phrase: fear is…

Word.
I understand what you are saying. The only thing for me is….our ancestors did not use Algebra (as we know it) to teach mathematics. This was something that I realized when I had to write paper for my history of math class. Corinna Rossi pointed out in her book Mathematics in Ancient Egypt that while our ancestors knew what we call…

Mo metsi a kileng a ema, a tla boya a eme.
That is a Sepedi/Setswana/Sesotho proverb. I’m sure isiZulu has it: lapho amanzi a ke wama, oyubuye eme futhi. In English it translates to “where water once stood, it will once again stand”. Every animal knows that -Elephants, Buffalo, Wildebeest etc. It is a cycle marked by the star system of Ausar…

White people are trying to claim the highest civilization in the ancient world for themselves. The sculptures, drawings and paintings easily prove that there were no white peoples in ancient Kmt, during the height of ancient Kmt civilization. White people are going to use
Tsie-badimo to proof something that does not exist.

Yes. Exactly. They are talking “tsie-badimo”; to convince them otherwise will be, as Sepedi depicts it, to try to convince the locust-god

O paletse sota
To “palela” or “paletse” is to “to defeat or to be defeated”. The saying says, “you < o > have defeated <paletse> the touches soap on earth <sota> “.
Sota is a soap, one of the oldest soaps our elders used – it can remove anything, literally. So when someone says “o paletse sota” it means you have defeated the toughest…
