The historical and cultural links between Africa and South America are believed to be earlier in history than the Atlantic slave trade that ended in the 1800s. According to Louis Seymour Bazett Leakey, British paleoanthropologist and archaeologist (1903-1972), "Sometime during the many millions of years that have elapsed since mammalian faunas came into existence, some sort of island crossed from West Africa to South America". The Theosophical Society has also confirmed that the black race is the relics of early settlements of human beings. The black people are the remnants of the Atlanteans. The Atlanteans came from the lost city of Atlantis. The black people were the first of the seven sub-races of the Atlantean root race called the Rmoahals. According to late Justice Adewale Thompson in his Black Peoples of the World (1995), "the Yorubas are a prehistoric race. Obatala, Oduduwa, Orunmila, and others are heroes in the antediluvian dynasty. Antediluvian belongs to the time before the biblical flood. They were the survivors of the flood of Atlantis. They were the Rmoahal race of Atlantis. They were Atlanteans. It was from this race that the present blacks of West Africa descended. And the Yoruba language is an Atlantean language". I felt the need to compile this anthology book after reading the story of the fish baby of Atlantis that appears in the September 1990 issue of the Sunday Tribune newspaper at Ibadan, Nigeria of a "strange scaly fish baby" captured by Russian scientists 12,000 feet below the sea in Cuban waters. The scaly creature claims that it is from the lost city of Atlantis. The creature's story was that "Several million years ago, the continent of Atlantis was a landmass that stretched between Africa and South America" but it gradually sank into the sea and its inhabitants evolved gills and scales to live underwater. This subject is dealt with in chapter 5 which shows a photo of the captured scaly creature from the lost city of Atlantis. The most significant legacy which Atlanteans pass on to Africans and South Americans is the science of IFA. It is worth noting that Ifa is practised throughout the Americans, West Africa, and the Canary Islands, in the form of a complex religious system, and it has played a critical role in the traditions of Santeria (Cuba), Candomblé (Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay, Venezuela, United States, and Portugal), Palo (Cuba), Umbanda (Brazil, Uruguay, Argentina, United States, and Portugal), Vodou (Haiti), and other Afro-American faiths, as well as in some traditional African religions. Ifa is of the same significance to Africans and South Americans as the Kabbalah is to the Jews. This book also discusses how the general problems of the two continents are tied to the Atlanteans. This book concludes that it would be good enough if Africa and South America could compare the challenging problems facing their governments and/or continents to incompetent management in private/public/state-owned companies. A company's failure was due to bad management. It follows that a good manager who can manage the affairs should be a top priority for getting the job. It does not matter if such a great manager is a local person or an expatriate.
