Kudos to whomever began the article -- likely as a result of my mentioning it in a discussion some time ago. But it is inaccurate. We had a history before we came here. The concept of the Kalunga line existed before Africans were kidnapped and transported to the New World, and it refers to bodies of water, in general -- not just the Atlantic ocean -- and can refer to rivers and lakes as well. Furthermore, the Kalunga line it is not the ocean itself, as the article imprecisely states; it is the <i>horizon line</i> which is the line that separates the land of the living from the land of our Ancestors. |

Inaccuracies
Kudos to whomever began the article -- likely as a result of my mentioning it in a discussion some time ago. But it is inaccurate. We had a history before we came here. The concept of the Kalunga line existed before Africans were kidnapped and transported to the New World, and it refers to bodies of water, in general -- not just the Atlantic ocean -- and can refer to rivers and lakes as well. Furthermore, the Kalunga line it is not the ocean itself, as the article imprecisely states; it is the horizon line which is the line that separates the land of the living from the land of our Ancestors.
