Such houses are what made the villages, in the 1980s and before
The antenna at the apex of the roof, called osuri, had some cultural significance, to the Luos
The tachtched roof isn't possible today, because the grass is unavailable. There isn't any, even for the cows to graze. We live in an era of scarce resources. Again, should you do this today, thieves will have an easy time, displacing some little grass and jumping in through the roof
Long ago there were no thieves. Nowadays there are more thieves than those to steal from the same way there are more pastors than those to be preached to
Again each village had a thatching expert. The last of my village died long ago
The wall was plastered using special clay mined at specific sites by the swamp. This soil is mixed with cow dung . The same isn't possible today because the young ladies who fetched the soil are today too sophisticated for such tasks
Again cow dung can no longer be used for that purpose because as I've said we live in an era if scarce resources, and cattle have no pastures to graze as everyone has sold land to buy pikipiki, meaning there are no grazing fields
Cows have now been forced to adopt to the new environment or die in line with the tenets of survival for the fittest. They've all become omnivores and they eat food like that of human being and now their dung is more like that of a human being which cannot be used to plaster anything
Lastly, that window isn't as small as it looks. Some of your mothers were kidnapped via that opening and eloped for marriage, todate
We the men if those days had mastered that delicate operation, which happened at midnight, when the old man of the home was already asleep snoring too loud to wake himself up by the noise
Nowadays, it is concrete everywhere and the only thatched thing around is he ATM
To get a girl, these days, you only text C U at 3 and the ninja arrives at 2, to be slaughtered. No serious hunting
Lastly, the thatch at the entrance was parched because school going children pinched some grass each morning to light fire to make breakfast
When festivities came, they'd be given a fresh coat of plaster and the words "mery christmas and happy new year 1986 etc) emblazoned on the walls
I have watched and rewatched Achieng’s tribute to her father! This girl is grounded and brilliant and wise! And paused to let mourners pay their respects. General must be proud
"Annunaki | Gods from Planet Nibiru and the Makers of Man"
Annunaki | Gods from Planet Nibiru and the Makers of Man Seven million years ago, a chimpanzee stood up on its hind legs, and a new species of hominin emerged. Over the next few million years, hominins evolved. They were still ape-like in appearance, but these were not apes. Their brains grew larger.
They created stone tools and hunted large game. They discovered fire and learned to follow the migration patterns of the animals they used for food, clothing, and shelter. It took a few million years for hominins to discover how to make a stone spearhead. Two million years later, that stone spearhead changed into - a different shaped spearhead. Technology evolved slowly. But, three hundred thousand years ago, homo sapiens appeared. And before long, they - we were the dominant species on the planet.
Once they destroyed Neanderthals once and for all, something happened. Technology accelerated. It only took 30,000 years to go from Gobekli Tepe to landing probes on other planets. How could mankind evolve so fast? The answer is: they couldn't. Mankind didn't evolve at all. Mankind was engineered: purpose-built to be the perfect slaves for a race of far superior beings who, according to ancient texts, descended from the heavens. Eventually, the slaves rebelled. And our masters - tried to destroy us in a great flood.
Sumerian texts, Egyptian religions, Ancient Indian myths, Native American legends - even the Bible. They all tell the same story. It's the story of Gods and Men. It's the story of the Annunaki.
