Hi,
Ido know there is research outthere that explains how some West African tribes have a strong commonality with the Jewish religion.Some ofthe commonalities are tribal circumcision in the males, the belief of 12 prophets/apostles/
chiefs inthe tribe,and the importance of blood sacrifice/ animal sacrifice. There is one book titled Hebrewism of West Africa. It was written inthe early 1900's.I don't particlularly know of any current books on this topic.
