The BAJA PEOPLE OF THE NILE

According to Strabo(63BC-23AD), the Baja were a Black-skinned people who were used to raiding and pillaging on the fringes of the desert.... "

The Baja were a people around the Nile in Egypt and the Sudan, fond of daggers, swords, scimitars and camels; their hair was made curly by a hot knife" (instead of weaving the hair, like the male Luwata and Gatuleg).

They 'were as black as tar' and weren't "good to have as a

friend or foe".

These were among some of the ancient tribes that made up what was most of north Africa before the coming of the Persians, the Assyrians (during the reign of Ashur banipal), the Greeks, the Romans,

the Hyksos and the coming of the Caucasoid groups known today as the Arabs in the 3rd century CE, a situation that intensified in the 7th and 8th century CE with the spread of Islam and Arab slave trade as well as the trans-saharan trade.

The effects of concubinage, Barbary slavery, migration and earlier encroachments of Europeans into Africa, especially, contributed greatly in altering the population of the northern parts of Africa.

For example, Mulai Ismael of Merknes, brought into north Africa 25,000 European slaves who participated in the building of his colossal stables.

These groups later became the dominant groups in north Africa after the fall of the African Maghrebs in Iberia and Africans lost control of trade routes in the Mediterranean in 1492 CE, as well as the resultant effects of the Turks takeover of Constantinople and later the whole of Byzantium.

During the peak era of the Arab slave trade, the Muslims often received European women as homage from traders and caliphs in Granada, Cordova etc, which were brought into north Africa and the Arabian peninsula.

The African male of the Soudan who fall under the burden of the slave trade were castrated to avoid procreation. These groups were fewer in number than the enslaved Europeans in north Africa before the 15th century CE, but the focus on mostly Black-skinned people began in the later parts of the 15th century CE, as Europe became more organized along national lines and could shift the tides of slavery.

In 1999 a female corpse with black objects on its feet was unearthed in Heilongjiang (China). Experts revealed her tragic experience: was she buried alive? For more than 200 years, a woman's skin, muscles, and joints remained intact. This female body was in the coffin, with a distorted posture and open mouth. Although it has become a mummy, it is not difficult to see that its expression is in great pain. The mummy was about 164 cm, the whole body was black as coal, and the placenta was not removed from the mummy before dying. The placenta was attached to the buttocks. Looking closer, the left hand and foot are mutilated. According to the archaeological team, it was a young woman in her 25s from the mummy's face and bones. According to Chinese tradition, the person who dies before being buried is cleaned and straightened by the limbs. The Mystery of the Cause of Death: Did you die of chronic poisoning or difficult childbirth? When the female mummy was found, her skin was still y...

The Painful Murder Of Czeslawa Kwoka In Auschwitz Extermination Camp, By Phenol Injection In The Heart.

Her name was Czeslawa Kwoka, and her crime was being Polish, Catholic, and 14 years old. Her red triangle was for political prisoners, because of where she was born in Poland. After this photo was taken, she was killed in Auschwitz extermination camp on March 12, 1943 with a phenol injection in the heart. Just before the execution, she was photographed by prisoner Wilhelm Brasse, who would later testify against the executioner of Czeslawa, a woman. Just before the photo, the executioner punched Czeslawa in the face, as the hematoma on her lip shows. This is the face of a terrified little girl, who didn't even speak the language of her executioner. She had lost her mother a few days before. But she dried her tears to look presentable for the photo. They took her hair and her life, but they couldn’t take her dignity. She was only one of about 250,000 children and minors who were executed in Auschwitz-Birkenau. T...

THE WORST AND HORRIBLE CRUCITIXION ANCIENT METHOD OF EXECUTION..

The Crucifixion was an ancient execution method, in which the criminal's hands and feet were bound or nailed to a wooden, cross-like structure. It wasa capital punishment reserved for slaves, traitors, "heretics", and usually the worst of criminals. It became widespread during the reign of Alexander the Great, but it still remains in occasional use in some countries. There were various methods of performing the crucifixion. Usually, the prisoner had to drag the crossbeam of his cross, weighing around 100 pounds, to the place of execution. Subsequently, his outstretched arms were bound to the crossbeam, or sometimes nailed through the wrists, and the crossbeam was raised and fixed to the already standing upright post. Death was usually caused by overall exhaustion or by heart failure. Sometimes, to shorten the victim's suffering, his legs were shattered using an iron club, so that subsequent asphyxiation soon ended his life.

Col. Anthony Joseph Drexel Biddle

Col. Anthony Joseph Drexel Biddle, born on December 17, 1874, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, was a prominent figure in the United States Marine Corps during the early 20th century. Known for his extraordinary skills in hand-to-hand combat, Biddle left a lasting legacy as a tough and fearless military officer. During his service in World War II, Col. Biddle was assigned to the Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island in South Carolina. It was there that he became famous for his unique training methods. Biddle would challenge his trainee Marines to engage in hand-to-hand combat with him using their bayonets, demonstrating his exceptional expertise in close-quarters combat. The incident where Col. Biddle was surrounded by bayonets occurred in 1943. This event showcased his extraordinary confidence and skill as a combat instructor. He fearlessly ordered the trainee Marines to attempt to kill him with their bayonets, challenging them to disarm him. Despite the potential dan...

Firing Squad to Gas Chamber: How Long Do Executions Take?

Utah brought back the firing squad this week as a backup execution method, with some proponents saying it’s the fastest and most humane way of killing condemned inmates in an era when lethal injections have dragged on as long as two hours. “It’s the only method we have in this country for which people are trained to kill,” said Fordham Law Professor Deborah Denno, an expert on capital punishment. “It appears the death is the quickest.” Last summer, a federal judge wrote in an opinion that firing squad should probably replace the needle as the U.S. execution method — even though he thought another was more foolproof. “The guillotine is probably best, but seems inconsistent with our national ethos,” Judge Alex Kozinski of the Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals wrote. With states considering alternatives from the electric chair to the gas chamber, here’s a look at how long it takes to kill a condemned inmate with each method: Popularized during the French Revolution as a humane alternati...

The Banco Central do Brasil Bank Robbery, Fortaleza, Ceará, Brazil.

The Banco Central do Brasil Bank Robbery, Fortaleza, Ceará, Brazil. The bank robbery was pulled off by a gang of 25 people. They rented a property very close to the bank and made the people believe they were running a landscaping company. They distributed free promotional baseball caps and even ran some adverts. Within a space of three months, they dug an 80-meter tunnel, fitted with electric lights, wood-paneling, and improvised air-conditioning systems The entrance to the tunnel was about 70 cm square and four meters beneath the surface. The vault that weekend was filled with brand-new notes and used notes that had been withdrawn from circulation. The robbers took only the used notes because the bank had kept no record of their serial numbers. This was one of the wisest decisions they made. None of the money they took was traceable. They disabled the bank's alar ms and sensors and were able to drill through one-meter steel-reinforced concrete to the vault and made away with...

A MOTHER, A CHILD, A DEATH PIT. GERMANS AND UKRAINIANS SOLDIERS FOLLOWING THE ORDER...

A mother, a child, a death pit. German and Ukrainian (collaborator) soldiers following the order by Heinrich Himmler. October 13, 1941, Ukraine. "l still remember the young girl, slender and dark, who, passing near me, pointed at herself, saying, "twenty-three."I walked around the mound and faced a frightful common grave. Tightly packed corpses were heaped so close together that only the heads showed. Most were wounded in the head, and the blood flowed over their shoulders. Some still moved. Others raised their hands and turned their heads to show that they were still alive. The ditch was two-thirds full. I estimate that it held a thousand bodies. Here in Berlin and more and more across Germany, we have so-called "Stolpersteine." These are solid metail stones, which are embedded in the street, where a former German jew or family lived, who was killed during the holocaust. I think - but did not yet "google" for it - that there is even an Overview of ...

A STRANGE HISTORY OF KIRENGA MARKET, THIS WAS A PLACE FOR THE EXECUTION OF DETAINEES FROM THE COLONIAL ERA WHICH USUALLY BROUGHT BAD MEMORIES TO OUR FOREFATHERS.

A strange history of Kirenga market, Magina, and AP WAS THERE: The Vietnam War, These three places left deep scars and the mention of them usually brought bad memories to our forefathers. This was a place for the execution of detainees from the colonial era. The colonialist had set up a gallow in this town and would use it to set an example to anyone who resisted their rule. An old man many years ago shared some history with me about the Kirenga market, Magina, and Uplands. These three places left deep scars and the mention of them usually brought bad memories to our forefathers. Kirenga market in the 1800s and early 1900s was used as an open market where young girls from as far as Muranga would be brought for sale by their Fathers in exchange for goats and cattle or even dry farm produce during droughts. These young girls sadly would be sold as deep into Masai Land (probably explains why there are Bantu names that are intertwined with maa names and vice versa)...
