Title: read with Black Athena revisited
Review: If you read this book with "Black Athena Revisited" you'll combine a scholarly assessment of the ancient evidence with this book, an assessment of the people and the politics which survive the Afro-centric quest. The problem is that most of those who promote the idea that Western civilization inherited and stole African civilization are people who understand neither the languages nor the histories they are compared. You can tell though that Mary Lefkowitz has a particular problem with this, though it is unclear why exactly. Lack of explaining this left me wondering about her own biases -- they go two ways.
Is the review positive or negative?
