Anthropologists named the facts which prove that Borno State in Nigeria is the Biblical land of Noah.
The
region of Lake Chad very often associates with the tenth and last of the
pre-flood Patriarchs Noah.
Even
the name of the territory Bor-No allegedly means the “Land of Noah”. It is
sometimes pronounced as Bor-Nu, which means the “Land of Gold” because Proto-Saharan
kings, such as Noah, had access to the mineral resources of the Upper Nile.
This is the only area on Earth that has put names reflecting the rulers
mentioned in Genesis 4 and 5.
The
first leaders listed in the book of Genesis 4-6 lived in the Chad Basin during
the late Holocene. They were: Kain, Seth, Enoch and Noah. Lake Chad had an
area of close to 200,000 sq.miles at that time. As the climate changed and
the water moved away, one lake divided into three separate ones: Lake Chad,
Lake Bodele and Lake Fitri.
The
map above shows Kano and Borno and other related kingdoms extending to the Nile
in 1750.
The
commerce on the interrelated water systems were controlled by Noah and the
other Chadic leadership of Genesis. These were the ways by which they seized
other territories and spread their worldview.
Kain,
Seth and Enoch are related with the area where Chadic is spoken. Chadic is
considered to be one of the best discovered divisions of the Afro-Asiatic
language family. This includes Chad, Northern Cameroon, Northern Nigeria, and
Southeastern Niger in an area around Lake Chad.
Kano-Nok-Borno
is the area where some of Abraham’s conquers lived. Bor-no means “Land of
Noah.” Kano refers to Kain (Cain) and Nok appears in the Bible as the name
Ha’nock.
Genesis
tells the story of how Kain left his home and went eastwards to a place where
he married the daughter of a Chadic chief named Nok (Enoch). He further built
and named a “city” after his firstborn son Enoch. Enoch the Younger was
named by Kain’s wife after her father, representing that she was Kain’s cousin
and her firstborn was successor to the throne of his maternal grandfather. We
can place Kain and Enoch in the region of Northern Nigeria (Nok and Kano).
Genesis
then says us that Noah’s three sons were Ham, Shem and Japheth. Ham and
Shem seem to have been the firstborn sons by two different women and the
principal Chadic lines descending from Noah.
There
is no proof that any of these people have survived the universal flood.
The evidence simply does not care the understanding that all the peoples of the
earth were destroyed in the catastrophic global flood and that the earth
has been repopulated by Noah’s descendants.
