Punt wasn’t somalia If is I was located in northern Somalia how come there was no artifact found of the so called “punt” at least they found ancient himyarite/south Arabian artifacts in Puntland but no puntiteAnyway we do have civilizations.
Punt, Adal, Ifat, Ajuuraan etc are all pretty good examples. Anyway if the racist in question is white anglo saxon tell him that african civilizations like axum and nubia were way more advanced that northern europe in ancient times, if he is arab, middle eastern or any non white country ask him if he considers himself less civilized becaue his country is less developed than let's say USA or any EU country. It would be pretty dumb and ironic for a yemeni or a syrian to look down on somalis when his own country is a mess.
