Using the readings from the unit on ancient Alkebulan, discuss the ways in which ancient African societies, conceptualized and practiced the masculine and feminine principle (i.e. what we now term the “principle of gender”).

Using the readings from the unit on ancient Alkebulan, discuss the ways in which ancient African societies, conceptualized and practiced the masculine and feminine principle (i.e. what we now term the “principle of gender”).

What shared principles and practices (what continuities) can we distill from this philosophical orientation and extensive, complex histories, to give us a picture of the ways in which this principle was expressed spiritually and socio-politically? What modes of social organization and cultural belief systems did this principle yield?

In order to fully respond, address the how the masculine/feminine principle is conceptualized using Nah Dove’s article “Defining a Mother-Centered Matrix to Analyze the Status of Women”
