In the precincts of our universe, history is the clock face that tells a people their historical time of the moment. Without employing the use of natural cardinal points, history becomes the compass which the sages use to locate themselves and their communities on the invisible world map that indicates time and space. It is in history that a people are able to discern who they are and where they have come from and how far! It is also in the history that a people chart there way forward. Yet as much as African History can be applied as a powerful weapon against colonial history, mental enslavement resulting from colonization remains the core that hampers disengagement towards self confidence by the African people.The history of European colonization was solely and sorely engaged in the land dispossession and destruction of African knowledge. As late as 1626 for example, the Atlantic sea was known as the Ethiopian sea and the Indian Ocean was called the Azania Sea. Perhaps the names were changed when it was discovered that these two water bodies were actually oceans and not seas! George Murdock in his works wrote that Azanians stimulated trade with the East.
