This book enriches the historiography of Sub-Saharan Africa through the use of new concepts and a methodology based on the use of other silences which have helped historians to rewrite the history of Sub-Saharan Africa since antiquity.Finally, the main reason for my intention to present this work is to emphasize that using only written sources is an insufficient scale to write the history of Africa, but rather to rely on other sciences such as anthropology, linguistics and ethnology corrected many concepts. And this has allowed historians to prove beyond doubt that much of the literature dates back to ancient ages.
