The roots of civilization supposedly lie in the transition from hunters and gatherers to farming life. But research shows the farming life wasn’t as easy as the nomadic lifestyle. So why the change? This researcher believes we need to look elsewhere to find the real roots of civilization.

War in Human Civilization is fascinating (also, ,bleak!) so far - which is to say like 40 pages in.
Very funny how much of a grudge Gat has with carefully unnamed 'Rouseauists' - like he on multiple occasions goes 'Margaret Mead advanced a limited and nuanced version of this position, and knew what she was talking about. Those that followed her sadly did not.' Love the academic passive aggression.
In terms of ~ideology~, also very amusing how scarequotes get added around 'primitive' when the book goes from discussing 'simple' hunter-gatherers (Kalahari Bushmen, Aboriginal Australians) to 'complex' ones (indigenous peoples of PNW north america)

The Most Important Thing That's Probably Missing From Your Backyard
I am a mother, an herbalist, a survival skills instructor, and a biologist. I graduated with a degree in Biology from McGill University and further developed my herbal skills in the desert of Kalahari. I lived there for years with one of the oldest cultures on Earth, the San Bushmen. Many San still live off what the land provides in terms of food and medicine, and many of them live well to a ripe old age without ever taking pills or seeing the inside of a hospital. click

Burning (2018) — dir. Lee Chang-Dong
A rich and deeply thought film, mired in ambiguities, questions not quite answered in the half-light—but on another level it's very much about picking up your crush from the airport and she gets off the plane with Steven Yeun. Devastating. (spoilers under the cut, more movie thoughts on letterboxd)
Haemi is still a classic Murakami woman, and this has all the usual criticisms you could level at that. The dichotomy is in how men look at her, whether she is a disposable toy or jealously, clumsily fumbled at. But she has the great hunger, still gone unsatisfied. This is a film about young people, a shiftless, lost generation. Both Jong-su's parents are useless to him, selfish, uninterested in his life. These kids with no jobs, their elders ineffectual, stubborn, proud. Not really all that friendly. Go burning greenhouses. It's Jongsu who does the burning. A glimmer of sun off the Seoul tower, phallic, freighted with desire. Then, undressing as Haemi did for him and Ben, as the sun set, he burns Ben. Their final clinch more passionate and breathless even than Jongsu's other penetration, of Haemi. The Kalahari bushmen burning a fire from evening deep into the night, working the small hunger into the great hunger.
All these things that aren't quite there. The invisible cat an excuse to fuck, really, but leaving scat all the same. Phone calls that are merely silence. The tangerine, not willed into being but not-negated. Everything is there beneath the surface if it is not denied. It is in Panju, and also in Seoul. (Or is Ben's "simultaneous existence" the antithesis of this, all-being, total positive, both there and here, not between, not half or either but both? Making offerings to yourself, god and worshipper.) The well, remembered or created. Haemi herself, appearing as if a miracle and then vanishing just the same.
Burning burning burning, the film makes us wait so long to finally set something alight, but it is back there too, in the past, waiting behind us, beneath and around as the sun falls out of the sky into void.

SAN PEOPLE: THE WORLD’S MOST ANCIENT RACE/PEOPLE, OUR ANCESTORS.
They predate Christianity and Islam by at least 18,000 years! Why is this not taught in the schools of the world ?
The San 'Bushmen' also known as Khwe, Sho, and Basarwa are the oldest inhabitants of southern Africa, (and are part of the Khoi and San groups), where they have lived for at least 20,000 years. They are hunter-gatherer peoples of southern Africa. Genetic evidence also suggests the San Bushmen are one of the oldest peoples in the world. Their home is in the vast expanse of the Kalahari desert.
They are found in Botswana, Namibia, South Africa, Zambia, Zimbabwe and Angola, with loosely related groups in Tanzania.
Recorded history also placed them in Lesotho and Mozambique. Rock art and archaeological evidence can place them as far north as Libya, Egypt, Sudan and Ethiopia, with the evidence of legend and racial type suggesting some traces remain.
“Hottentot” (British and South African English) is a derogatory term historically used of the Khoikhoi, the non-Bantu indigenous nomadic pastoralists of South Africa.
The term has also been used to refer to the non-Bantu indigenous population as a whole, now collectively known as the Khoisan. Use of the term is now deprecated and considered offensive, the preferred name for the non-Bantu indigenous people of the Western Cape area being Khoi, Khoikhoi, or Khoisan.
The Khoi people also fought and defeated the British settlers. That’s why the Europeans derogatorily called them “Cannibals”, like they insulted all the native peoples of the world whose land they stole at gunpoint, with the help of the Christian missionaries/Islam and the Bible/Koran.

Many mystics, even in modern times, claim to be familiar with such an invisible network we humans can tap into. In his Autobiography of a Yogi, Paramahansa Yogananda recalls a curious and inspiring incident, which occurred as he made a bet with his brother in India (see Yogananda, 2003, pp. 93-101). After his brother Ananta scolded him for being foolish pursuing spiritual goals without backing up his life financially (‘Money first, God can come later!’), the yogi accepted the challenge of completing a journey without taking a single rupee with him, only relying on the Invisible Hand to provide for food and shelter. The brother stated the rules: no begging, no revealing of the situation to anyone, but if he can arrive without ever going without a meal or becoming stranded, he would become his disciple. Paramahansa Yogananda completed the challenge famously, proving for his family that he can sense and use a connection to all-there-is: a connection which sustains his life, helps him to survive and guides his way.
I came across my first suggestive evidence that humans may indeed use an invisible network on a larger scale, while doing research in South Africa. The topic of the thesis I worked on at that time was legal anthropology and as such unrelated, but a human rights lawyer I interviewed told me something unexpected. He was working together with the Sān (or Bushmen) people (the indigenous hunter-gatherers of Southern Africa) on a close, intensive basis. One day the Sān took him on a hunt, during which – the lawyer observed – they always knew in what bush or behind which tree an animal was hiding, even if it wasn’t visible. Their predictions were so accurate that he started asking them about it. The Sān revealed that they felt a vibration in-between their eyebrows when the prey was nearby.
In his book The Lost World of the Kalahari, Laurens van der Post tells of a similar experience he had while hunting with the Bushmen. During this hunt, the Bushmen killed an eland, which was cause for great celebration. They said that the others who stayed behind at the camp will know about the kill by the time they return, because within the tribe they have an inbuilt, natural ‘wire’ (like the telegraph of the white man), which invisibly connects its members. Van der Post describes it as a humbling experience as they marched back and from afar in the dark, long before they were visible to the people home, they could already hear the people home singing the errand song (van der Post, 1962, pp. 236-237).
Other anthropologists who have studied the Sān with an open mind, similarly discovered that for this people, invisible ‘energies’ which convey information and/or power, are a normal part of their socially accepted reality. Anthropologist Bradford Keenly describes how Bushmen believe that there is a ‘silver stream of energy’ extending between them which allows for sending and receiving telepathic messages (Keenly cited by Mauro, 2015, p. 66). Lewis-Williams and Pearce (2004, pp. 104-105), who have done extensive work on San rock art correlating to certain altered states of consciousness, point out that those rock art images are not simply ‘pictures’ to be looked at and admired. They are deposits of a type of energy or power, which a ‘good person’ can access by placing his or her hand on the image.
Anecdotal evidence such as this can be found in abundance, not only with the San people. Loren McIntyre, the iconic National Geographic explorer and writer recalls an incident when he was lost in the Amazon region and ended up living with an uncontacted tribe for months. Even though they could not speak each other’s languages, he became so immersed in their – entirely different – culture that he found access to their ‘second language,’ a type of telepathy which he referred to as beaming (Popescu, 1991). Biologist Rupert Sheldrake has collected over five thousand case histories to illustrate this type of instinctual, telepathic communication. He thinks of this as part of our evolutionary heritage, which used to aid our survival and therefore works best in life-and-death, emergency or distress situations involving intense emotions (Sheldrake, 2004).

ANGÉLIQUE KIDJO & YO-YO MA | SARABANDE AFRICAINE
Deux immenses musiciens, Yo-Yo Ma et Angélique Kidjo se réunissent sur la scène de la Philharmonie de Paris le 3 décembre prochain dans « Sarabande Africaine ». Un concert atypique mêlant la voix puissante d’Angélique Kidjo et la pureté du violoncelle de Yo-Yo Ma, pour explorer les époques et les lieux où les musiques classiques et africaines se sont croisées.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pour définir sa collaboration avec Angélique Kidjo, Yo-Yo Ma décline un concept écologique, celui du « edge effect », l’effet « lisière », ou comment la rencontre de deux écosystèmes en produit un troisième, générateur de nouvelles formes de vie. Ce processus, dit le violoncelliste, a donné naissance au jazz, ou dans un passé plus lointain, à la sarabande.
« Nous sommes des chercheurs culturels », explique Yo-Yo Ma. Des curieux patentés qui, plutôt que de cultiver leurs différences, ont décidé d’explorer les zones de convergence. « Angélique Kidjo est née au Bénin, elle est passée par la France, les États-Unis. Moi, je suis né à Paris de parents Chinois partis à New-York. Nous sommes des migrants, voilà l’identité profonde que nous partageons ».
Voici donc réunis nos deux impétrants d’excellence —  pour chacun, plusieurs Grammy Awards et le Polar Music Prize. Elle, chanteuse populaire, lui musicien classique, ont en commun de se soucier de la genèse de leurs musiques. Ce faisant, ils ont tissé une toile d’humanité, de folle humeur, de hasards et de vagabondages. Au fil de leur quête, ils ont prouvé que l’africanité avait traversé les siècles. Ils ont, dit Angélique, découvert que « la musique africaine et la musique classique avaient une histoire commune riche et inédite que nous avons décidé de raconter ». Afin que cesse l’occultation syst��mique de l’apport africain, ils ont conçu Sarabande Africaine.
Avant de se projeter vers l’Orient, en fondant en 2000 le Silkroad Ensemble, Yo-Yo, le brillant élève de la Juilliard School, avait fait une incursion chez les bushmen Kung du désert du Kalahari, à la frontière de la Namibie et de le Botswana, parce qu’il en il admirait la musique. Pendant ce temps, Angélique Kidjo, projetée dans la lumière de la pop africaine et de la sono mondiale depuis la sortie en 1991 de Logozo chez Island Records n’avait rien lâché, construisant une trilogie discographique basée sur les routes de l’esclavage (Oremi, Black Ivory Soul, Oyaya !).
Pour Yo-Yo Ma, le clan des passeurs, qu’elle et il, ont rejoint, est de la plus haute importance. Il y inscrit tout autant Antonín Dvořákque Nadia Boulanger, la professeure française de Leonard Bernstein, Pierre Henry, Quincy Jones, Astor Piazzolla, Philip Glass, et tant de génies contemporains, dont elle a libéré la pensée par son exigence de décloisonnement des musiques. Dans la même logique, Angélique Kidjo n’a pas craint de faire des incursions dans le domaine a priori clos des musiques dites « savantes », notamment en collaborant avec Philip Glass, avec qui elle a créé Ifé, Three Yoruba Songs en 2014. De Glass, elle a aussi interprété la Symphonie n°12, dite Lodger, sur des paroles de David Bowie, en y apportant la force d’une voix ancrée dans la tradition orale du Golfe de Guinée.
Dans le même désir de rupture, Yo-Yo Ma a intensément interprété les œuvres d’Antonín Dvořák.  « Dvořák, qui a dirigé le Conservatoire National de musique de New York, avait pour assistant Harry T Burleigh, chanteur et grand connaisseur des negro spirituals », très présents dans la Symphonie du Nouveau Monde. Dvorak était convaincu qu’il fallait puiser dans l’ensemble des cultures populaires, en particulier les cultures amérindienne et afro-américaine. « J’en suis maintenant convaincu, écrivait-il dans le New York Herald en mai 1893. L’avenir de la musique de ce pays s’appuiera sur ce que l’on appelle les mélodies noires. J’y ai découvert tout ce dont j’ai besoin pour imaginer une grande et noble musique qui peut faire école. »  La génération suivante, Duke Ellington, George Gershwin, héros musicaux qu’Angélique Kidjo chante, créa ce « edge effect », écosystème libre de la musique américaine, marqué par l’héritage des diasporas africaines.
Angélique Kidjo et Yo-Yo Ma se sont rencontrés le 11 novembre 2018 sous l’arc de Triomphe, lors du centenaire de l’armistice de la Première Guerre mondiale. Au premier regard, ils s’entendent, ils s’écoutent, ils se reconnaissent. Ils ont des valeurs communes : la paix, la protection de « Mother Nature » (titre du dix-huitième album d’Angélique, paru en 2021), et l’éducation. « Et puis, dit encore Yo-Yo Ma, nous ne sommes pas coincés. Nos pensées ne sont pas rigides, pas catégoriques, et ainsi nous trouvons une sorte de vérité musicale ».
Devant plus de soixante-dix chefs d’États, Yo-Yo Ma interprète la Sarabande de la Suite n°5 pour violoncelle en do mineur de J.S. Bach. En hommage aux combattants africains de la première Guerre mondiale, Angélique Kidjo choisit Blewu, une chanson de paix et de patience écrite en langue mina par la Togolaise Bella Bellow, incluse dans son répertoire dès 1989. « Nous étions tous là, parce que, à la fin de la Grande Guerre, on a dit plus jamais, mais il y a eu la Seconde Guerre mondiale, puis à chaque grande tragédie, et à chaque fois, on oublie, c’est très pénible. », poursuit Yo-Yo Ma.
Pour résister aux effets mortifères du confinement de 2020, nos deux désormais complices enregistrent ce Blewu, en duo, voix, violoncelle – que Yo-Yo Ma a inclus dans son album Notes for The Future. « Ce dont nous avons parlé immédiatement avec Angélique, ce fut de la sarabande », poursuit Yo-Yo Ma. Puisant ses origines sans doute ses origines dans le Royaume andalou (Maures, Juifs, Wisigoths…) démantelée par les Rois Catholiques en 1492, la sarabande est apparue en Espagne à la fin du 16ème siècle. L’Inquisition voyait dans cette danse débridée la main Diable, un cadeau fait aux sorcières pour le sabbat. La sarabande migra chez les esclaves africains du Panama, revint en France sous une forme ralentie, proche du menuet de Cour. Au début du 18ème siècle, elle inspira brillamment Haendel, et devint, selon Yo-Yo Ma, le « cœur des six Suites pour violoncelle seul de Bach », qu’il a enregistrées dès 1983.
Croisements de hasards : Angélique Kidjo adore Bach. En 2008, elle entend un mouvement du concerto pour clavier BWV 1056 de Bach, inséré dans le documentaire d’animation Valse avec Bachir, de Ari Folman. Elle y place des paroles en mina, et l’intitule Aisha. « Je l’ai beaucoup chantée dans Mots d’Amour, le récital conçu avec le pianiste classique français Alexandre Tharaud », où figure également La Foule. Archétype de la chanson française, ce titre culte d’Edith Piaf est en réalité l’adaptation par le parolier Michel Rivgauche de Que nadie sepa mi sufrir, composé par l’argentin Angel Cabral, d’après une valse péruvienne.
Angélique est née à Ouidah, elle a fui en France la dictature marxiste du président Kérékou. Yo-Yo est de famille chinoise, et fut très tôt repéré pour sa virtuosité par, entre autres, le violoncelliste catalan et antifranquiste Pablo Casals. Ils sont Français et partage un amour vif de la langue française. Angélique a inclus dans son programme la lecture de L’Horloge, un poème de Charles Baudelaire qui fut le compagnon d’une vie de la comédienne Jeanne Duval, femme créole née à La Réunion.
Trait d’union encore, le plaisir de la musique. Admirateur de la Philosophie des Lumières, Yo-Yo Ma lui retire cependant un point : la séparation du corps et de l’esprit, et la prédominance de ce dernier. « Or, la musique en scelle la fusion, il faut des muscles efficaces pour jouer Bach. Ou pour chanter. Le groove doit être ressenti dans le corps, qui n’est pas un métronome ». Angélique danse, s’empare avec volupté des rythmes, chante sans limites. Yo-Yo Ma joue, partout, avec gourmandise. « Le violoncelle est charnel, je n’essaie pas de sortir le plus beau son du violoncelle, mais de suggérer le son d’un tambour, d’une voix, de l’eau, de l’acier. La flexibilité du violoncelle me permet de suggérer tout ce qui existe dans la nature ».
Angélique Kidjo et Yo-Yo Ma auraient pu se limiter à un duo. Mais ils ont choisi de faire groupe, avec deux musiciens d’origine caribéenne, compagnons de route de la chanteuse, David Donatien (percussions) et Thierry Vaton (piano). Donc, une foi encore, il a fallu inventer, adapter. « Michael Riesman [directeur du Philip Glass Ensemble] a fait un travail remarquable en transcrivant les 110 musiciens de l'orchestre philharmonique en un trio », s’amuse Angélique Kidjo, un nouveau « edge effect » en perspective.

Namibia
Its territories, together with the richness of its fauna and the variety of its landscapes, make Namibia one of the most interesting and sought-after tourist destinations on the African continent. It owes its name to the Namib Desert, an immense sea of ​​very high sand dunes that take on shades ranging from cream to orange and red.
In the eastern part of the state the landscapes change, in fact the rivers favor the growth of very thick vegetation, here there are natural parks full of animals such as hippos and crocodiles.
For a trip in contact with nature, you certainly cannot miss a safari in the Etosha National Park to admire giraffes, elephants, lions and rhinos up close. Inside this park there is the "Pan", a large depression that in the past was a salt lake.
Excursions among the red sand dunes in the Kalahari desert, on the border with Botswana; they will allow you to enjoy breathtaking landscapes and possible encounters with groups of Bushmen who still live off the resources that the desert offers.

The most important thing that is probably Missing from your backyard
About Nicole Apelian, Phd

I am a mother, an herbalist, a survival skills instructor, and a biologist. I graduated with a degree in Biology from McGill University and further developed my herbal skills in the desert of Kalahari. I lived there for years with one of the oldest cultures on Earth, the San Bushmen.

When I was just 29 years old, I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. MS is an incurable autoimmune condition that makes your own immune system attack the brain and spinal cord. I was in constant agony, most of the times in a wheelchair.
Tumblr media
The Western treatment prescribed by my doctors didn’t provide much relief. For the last 20 years I’ve been managing my MS using the natural remedies that I personally grow in my backyard. I went from being pushed in a wheelchair to being fully alive. So much that in 2015 I survived for 57 days straight in the wild on the History Channel’s TV show Alone. 
Tumblr media
I turn to my small backyard pharmacy whenever I’m in pain, catch a cold, have fever, and so on. I haven’t stepped foot in a pharmacy in a very long time. I have all I need here in my backyard for me and my whole family.

Updates NYC 04/02/16
1. Raahubaat Yasar. The ET's are giving us this information about who is who so that it will be clearly shown that NO ONE could have given us this information about genetic markers, and this race and that race. Natural Nature versus Unnatural Nature. If I say to you, "I want to INSPIRE you", what do you think that means? It means, "I want to put a SPIRIT in you". A spirit (believe it or not) is not Natural Nature. Think of it this way: The Muccas-u are not natural nature, although they are created from nature. A spirit is inside something of natural nature, yet it is not OF natural nature. Spirits cannot cross over salt water (it has something to do with the iodine). Now you have what is called "pure spirit" which would include a "holy spirit" and "unholy spirit" yet they do not want to admit that because they do not know the difference wan a possession is taking place.
2. The Incubi and Succubi are Greys. The IGIGI were assigned to Earth as their watch station and that is what the name means. They violated the first rule and came down to Earth and had sex. Some beings live in the waters, some in the air, some under the Earth, as it says for the Adamites not to make any images of anything under the water, in the heavens or in the Earth in Exodus 20:4.
3. The Greys were given a "Tri-Abode Pass". We are dealing with Grey groups from Rigel, Alnitak, etc. Groups of Greys were about to make hybrid children because they don't feed. That is why they are the succubi and incubi, because they arouse people in their sleep to attract body fluids such as adrenaline, DNA from semen, and ovaries to create hybrids to live here among people as well.
4. The Sans people are the Ptahites of Botswana and you have the Kalahari Bushmen who are of Zimbabwe. These people have ALL the genetic markers of people that you see as traits in the human race. They have the nappy hair of the Negroids, the slanted eyes of the Asians, the 3 marks of the brow of the Aborigines, and the chin of the Indians. The first race was Negroids who have 9 species and seats. The next race is the Aborigines and the Dravidians who have 8, and the Asians who have 7 species, the Cacass-u women who have 6, and the Cacass-u men have 5. There is another sub-species that has 4, yet I will not mention that now. The more the number of spiritual seats, the less spiritual. The lesser number of spiritual seats, the more spiritual.
5. We are now in a "degraded state". So how did we get to this degraded point? Well, during slavery, a new language was created called "Ki-Swahili" which is a combination of Arabic and Bantu used to control the slaves during the slave trade. Many converted from their natural way or natural nature and converted to monotheistic religions such as Islam. Even in their book called the Koran, it says to go back when in doubt. "Going back" as mentioned in Koran 10:94 in the first chapter revealed that was rearranged as chapter 96 known as Al A'laq "The Clot" in 610 A.D. Muhammad was told to read in the name of his Rab "Icra Rabiyka" (Read in the name of your Sustainer), not 'recite' as many mistranslations read. Who is the only person talked about in the Koran?
