The thesis concerning the Egyptian origins of West African deities is 
very tenuous and has been ably refuted by historians. It is unfortunate 
that Afrocentric scholarship so often denies itself of the rigors of 
historiography, for underlying the attempt to connect everything somehow 
to Egypt (or to Kemet), lies an unwitting and unfortunate presumption 
that without some noble Egyptian connection there is somehow a lack of 
inherent value to truly Black African traditions.
