Throw Pillows- Multi coloured

The book “Facing Mount Kenya” written by Kenya’s first President Jomo Kenyatta was used as the key anthropological thesis on which the culture of the Kikuyu tribe gains much of its insights. This running commentary contends that in reality, Facing Mount Kenya was used to wipe out and conceal the real histories of the Kikuyu’s and their true relationship with all the tribe-peoples of Kenya—including the Maasai Kingdom. This commentary also corrects a valid historical error regarding the true lineage of the Kikuyu and addresses The Elephant In The Room - the authoress states steadfastly that the Kikuyu peoples were a formidable, wealthy, warlike nation led by the 10 daughters of Mumbi – the Kikuyu were a strong, military Matrilineal Society. Of this, there is ample evidence. They were also matriarchal and Kikuyu women practiced Polyandry. The Daughters of Mumbi had vast land access and had social interaction, trade, and barter with the Kingdoms surrounding them - the Kemetian (Ethiopian) Kingdom to their immediate East, the Maasai Kingdom to their immediate North West and South, and to the Dahomey Kingdom (The Women Warriors) which stretched from the Atlantic Ocean through current DRC to the shores of Lake Nalubale in eastern Africa. This timeline is of a very near past of approximately 200 years ago. Note that all trade and interaction with these neighboring tribes ceased due to the vicious war invasion of the imperialist after the European tribes' agreement at the Berlin Conference. Facing Mount Kenya, a running Commentary is a healthy fast-paced read for those who are open-minded and eager to delve into the veracities regarding the (often incorrect) re-shaping of African history. The writing is intended as a conversation starter.
