The Hamitic people are descended from the
Prophet Ham, the third son of the Prophet Noah. There are
many groups of Hamitic peoples, all descending from one of
the four sons of Ham. The sons were Kush, Put, Caanan, and
Misrine. The descendents of these four sons occupied all of
specific parts of the continent of Africa and parts of the
continent of Asia, which they inherited from their father.
The Hamitic-Arab is descended from a royal
daughter of Pharaoh of the lineage of Misrine named Hajar
and the Prophet Abraham. The child of the union, the Prophet
Ishmail also took a wife of Hamitic origins. Ishmail inherited
from his father the lands called Arabia. His offspring became
known as the Hamitic-Arab.
These offspring spread out over the lands of
their mother's origin (North Africa) and eventually found
their way to America as indentured servants (circa 1617).
They were highly skilled craftsmen, artisans, and farmers.
When the slave trade began in America (1650), the slave traders
realizing the skill and ability of the indentured servants
who had come to America earlier, returned to the area (North
and West Africa) to obtain more Hamitic-Arabs and other peoples
of the region with similar skills, only this time as slaves.
