Video - The Conch-shaped Civilization: Ancient India's Influence on Africa

One of the most shocking facts is that Africa was known as Shankadweepa in ancient India. The name Shankadweepa comes from two root Sanskrit words: "Shanka" (which means conch) and "Dweepa" (which means island). Now, if you look at the shape of the African continent on a map, it closely resembles the shape of a conch shell, which holds great ritualistic importance in Hinduism. In the Brahma Purana, it is written that Vishnu is worshiped there in his form of Surya, or the Sun. So, who was the most prominent deity in ancient Egypt? Shockingly, it was the Sun God Ra. This raises an intriguing question: Was Africa the kingdom of Lord Rama's son, Kusha, in ancient Vedic times? Africa was also known as Kushadweepa, and Africans called themselves Kushites in the past. As our research points out, the Ramayana was not just limited to India but was a global phenomenon. It is believed that Rama ruled the entire planet during his time as a king. Historians mainly link the Kushites to the regions of Ethiopia and the kingdom of Nubia, but it is documented that their influence extended much further. This connection between ancient Indian texts and African history suggests a fascinating intertwining of cultures and civilizations, revealing a global reach and influence of ancient Indian mythology and kingship.
