Who is he? What is he? Where did he come from? How should we view him in the history of the world and the evolution of man?

Not your own empirical opinions!
How far can we go back? 2500 years? 5000 years? Do we have reliable sources beyond that?

Oh, and Celine8388, those opinion of yours are actually your feelings about yourself.

What we see, today, are the decendants of the outcasts of a former great civilization. The physical characteristics of the Sphinx more resemble those of the ***** than of any other race. At one time, Blacks ruled the earth.

As far as I know, ***** is originally a term derived from the Spanish and first used in English in the US to describe Africans forced to work as slaves. For this reason, it is mostly regarded as a term of abuse and is definitely not a term anyone should use to describe anybody.
It is then a social distinction, not a so called racial one.
Scientifically, there is no basis whatsoever to support that mankind is divided in different races. Once again, this is a social construct, no more, no less.
A long time ago, different groups of people settled down in various parts of the world. Over time, through marriage, they developed similar physical characteristics, the same way that I look like my sisters and also like both my parents, but not so much like my cousins. Yet, we are all part of the same family. there are blacks, whites, blondes, brunettes and redheads, tall and short people, fat and thin etc, but we are all equal and have the same capacity to invent, feel, experiment and contribute to the whole of mankind.

The "*****" that you speak of...are you talking about African-Americans? If so, the origins of that group are in slavery. People of lower consciousness and higher greed enslaved human beings from Africa and brought them to the US to work. They were Africans. Their children became Americans of African descent, thus the term "African-American".

You can study the etymology of the word "*****" to learn more about it. In some languages, the term refers to the color "black". Since many of the African slaves were dark-skinned, the term "*****" could be applied. I personally disdain the use of color labels for human beings. A "race" is not a "color". There's only one "race" on the planet: Human.

I wish you Peace.

Most African Americans have European, Native American and/or Asian ancestry as well. Blacks from non-African countries and blacks who voluntarily migrated from Africa are sometimes referred to by their nation of origin and not African American. are composed of many diverse ethnic groups. Over 40 identifiable ethnic groups from 25 different kingdoms were sold to the United States during the Triangular Slave trade. African kings in western coastal accessible regions would wage war and organize abductions on neighboring clans, not for their lands but for people. In exchange for their enslaved bounty Europeans offered material goods but most importantly muskets and cannons. This of course only advanced the African kings riches and their ability to enslave more of their countrymen. Those enslaved Africans who survived the journey to America slowly developed a common identity focused on their mutual condition in America as opposed to cultural and historic ties to Africa. Africans were sold and traded into bondage and shipped to the American South from 1619. In 1807, the importation of slaves by U.S. citizens became illegal, yet the practice continued. By 1860, there were 3.5 million enslaved Africans in the Southern United States, and another 500,000 Africans lived free across the country.

God created Africans, just as He created Caucasians. He gave them a different pigment so that they could deal with the hot African sun.

Be careful to know the truth; Hitler based his Nazi movement on the idea that Africans and Jews were the closest to apes (he was a radical evolutionist.)

you would find him almost at the very beginning of history...supposedly the bible says that it is a mark of Cain, that when he disobeyed god and killed his brother, that he and his descendants were turned black...but it also says a bit later that at the tower of babel god got mad cause they were trying to build a tower to heaven so he made them all different races with different languages....but scientifically, black ,asian and white all arrived on the scene at the same time...my guess would be rapid evolution in wildly different climates caused these cosmetic changes...cause that is all it is, cosmetics.....i dont think that there is any way we could inter-reproduce if we were not genetically the exact same animal.......
