DON'T KNOW WHY THIS IS A SURPRISE..

Interesting reading: "An Ancient Writing System Confounding Myths about Africa."
[bbc, 6.7]

And why do they write of Africa as if it's only SubSahara? I thought the efforts to segregate (a black Africa?) from the whole of the African continent was passe?
Anyway, read it if you must, but it won't surprise anyone on LLC, that's for sure.
