| Summary: | Bibliography: leaves 104-111. === This research focuses on the role of Ancient Egypt during antiquity. It attempts to demonstrate a rereading of Egypt through the lens of an African, in relation to the views held by traditional scholarship. It also provides its readers with an alternative way of looking at how Egypt and the Near Eastern countries influenced each other. Secondly, this research provides evidence, which suggests that the founders of ancient Egyptian civilization relates closer to their African heritage than their Asian, or even its European neighbours. This research also provides evidence, which suggest that most world-renowned Greek scholars studied under the feet of the Egyptian priest-scholars. The role of the 'Wisdon of the Egyptians' is discussed in comparison to other forms of wisdom, including Greek philosophy. Thirdly, this research provides us with new tools with which we can interpret sacred literature through the lens of an African. These tools play a significant role in the development of an African approach. Throughout this research, African scholars are searching for an African discourse, which aims at providing an alternative approach to the Western or European discourse. This perspective is vey helpful in redefining the role of ancient Egypt throughout the ancient world.
