Is SOL so bereft of girls that everyone is chasing Safferz? The poor creature must feel like a deer during the hunting season

War where are the other eligible dumars:D:D

I've wondered about this, maybe those of you who have a longer history on SOL can tell me... is it a predominantly male forum? Where are all the women?

Saffz, you should've made yourself clearer. You could've spared us Chimera's essays :D (nice read tho, you go get those Injirley).

I subscribe to Chimera's school of thought. Inta kale meesha wax kuma hayso.

I believe in the coming decades the Somali peninsula’s ancient treasures will be unearthed my experts from around the world and our history will be on display for everyone to see.

Somalis were and still are hard people, violent and camel herders - that's not a trait a predator/slave master is looking for in a human commodity. The Somalis historically have organized themselves in groups of clans and tribes and everyone knew the ancestors and the names of the members of the clan or sub group. If any one of them disappeared or is killed by another clan/sub-group or anyone else they had always sought a way to avenge for their loss, its called Aano and it still exists.

 

Given these camel herder Waranle, always ready for combat, mentality of Somalis I doubt the earlier Arab/Western slave masters would have easy target in Somalia to abduct slaves.

Nice read, I wish it never got so emotional though it sent the whole debate into non-sense.

Arab and Western slave traders probably knew well that if they abducted any Somali from any clan, the slave traders themselves would be enslaved by the victim's tribe as a revenge:cool:
