DIVERSE CULTURES BY: TAYLOR HORSEMAN

Arab people, lives in the Arab world, which is located in Western Africa and Northern Africa. The Arab world stretches from Morocco across Northern Africa to the Persian Gulf. Arab countries are religiously and ethnically diverse with Islam being the dominant religion in most countries. ARAB CULTURE

The Ashanti religion is a mixture of spiritual and supernatural powers. They believe that plants, animals, and trees have souls. They also believe in fairies, witches, and forest monsters. ASHANTI CULTURE

BANTU CULTURE

INFORMATION After the Bantu migration, culture in the civilization spread through Africa. Since the Bantu were dispersed, their iron working and animistic beliefs ran rampant through Africa.

The Bantu civilization was not like the Romans or Greeks, geographically for one and culturally for another. They Bantu were divided into groups spread all over the lower Half of Africa connected by their same religion and purpose. BANTU CULTURE

The Bantu also developed farming after they emerged from their nomadic stage; they were earlier to move from hunter and gatherer to farmer than other civilizations. BANTU CULTURE

The Swahili language, is basically of Bantu (African) origin. It has borrowed words from other languages such as Arabic probably as a result of the Swahili people using the Quran written in Arabic for spiritual guidance as Muslims. SWAHILI CULTURE

SWAHILI For at least one- thousand years, the Swahili people have occupied a narrow strip of the coastal land from Keyna to Tazmania.
