The Tuareg, from Arabia to Americas
摘要
The Arab and Muslim Identity of Native American Peoples and Tribes, The Tuareg, challenges conventional history by tracing Arab and African navigators’ migrations to the America. This chapter emphasises the importance of precise terminology and highlights the influence of women in ancient Arab societies. It reshapes our understanding of Arab-Muslim civilisation and its global expansion, emphasising the matriarchal systems among major Arab tribes. This work emphasises precise terminology, replacing ‘Semite’ and ‘Semitic’ with ‘Arab’ and ‘Arabian,’ to present a more accurate view of Arab-Muslim civilisation. It unveils substantial evidence for early Arab and African contact with the Americas, introducing languages, traditions, and matrilineal social systems. The chapter highlights influential female leaders from ancient Arab states, shedding light on women’s significant roles, revealing the women-centric aspect of pre-Islamic Arab culture.
