Welcome - ⵜⴰⵎⵓⵙⵙⵏⵉ ⵏ ⵍⵅⵉⵔ

Hello and welcome, my name is Dr. Simon Zakaria Lbou. I am 26years old born in Sweden but spent my last 5 years on the beautiful island Gran Canaria, archipeligo Macaronesia south west of the North African coast.

This is my blog about the ancient natives of the Canary Islands, i am self-thaught on the history and ancient people of both the old berber nations and the Canary Islands. 

I will post thoughts and scientific reports about this fantastic ancient people that used the islands as their time for over 2000 years.
People has always wondered who this people were and many suggestions has been made over the last 500 years or so.
Thank to DNA we can now say 100% that the ancient Canary islanders came from north Africa and were Amazigh people.


But this leaves us almost with more questions than answers...


Still this people is full of mystery..
How did they come to the islands?
Who brought them here?
Did they come by themselves?
And many more questions to be answered..

Thats my goal to find out and together hopefully sooner than later we will....
