Chapter Objective 1: Explain the Bantu Migration
- The Bantu Migration Began during the classical period.
- This Migration was the movement of languages to the South along Southeast and Southwest coasts.
They occupied most of the Sub-Saharan by 1000 CE.
- But some areas of the Sub-Saharan were still occupied gathering and hunting people who began to to make large states that made connections between regions of the eastern hemisphere and sub-Saharan Africa.
- The Bantu were people who originated from Nigeria and all had similar languages to the “Bantu Family”.
Bantu Agriculture
- Once the Bantu people moved their agriculture became different.
- Agriculture was the key to their society growing way more than the hunting and gathering neighbors.
- Their most important ingredients were yams, millet, and sorghum, and they would occasionally have meat with their vegetables.
Bantu Expansion- But when too many Bantu families began to move in, it put pressure on the amount of resources left for everyone.
- As a result of this many Bantu People began to move to new territories.
- This expansion of agricultural people in different lands created conflict about land use.
- Soon after though, Bantu people began to work things out and the absorbed other people in their own society.
- As a result hunting and gathering people adopted Bantu languages, married Bantu people and also joined different Bantu societies.
