To begin with, the correct name of the Mountain is not Ambarcho, in Kambaattissa (The National language of the Kambaattaa Nation). The correct name of the Mountain is: Hamba-Richoo (which means: The Sacred Site). It is a particular name given to one of the three mountains [the middle one:- which is the round one, more or less with 360% circle]. These mountains are surrounded by the early descendants of the "SEVEN CLAN" members. According to the oral and her/historical accounts, that was where the beginnings of the "Living Things" emerged, when our planet begun to have its current physical presentation. Before that, according to the oral her/history, the Earth was covered by water. Again, this is the oral account passed on for millennia after millennia. Of course, over the years different versions of a "written" accounts have been shared/taught. Most of those accounts are/were based on different/diverse Faith, Belief Systems, and Religions of the her/history of our world. The following accounts were passed-on to those of us, including this narrator, who are descendants of the "Story Teller" Clan: 1.There is only one "Invisible" Spiritual Guide, named: The Black and/or The Dark-One. It is "invisible", because no one can see it, but it communicates to all living-things, accordingly. We were told that, it knows all the facts about the Universe, including the Plant Earth and beyond. 2. It was at the top of the circular mountain , where our ancestors begun spreading, into seven directions, following the 7 "Seven" springs of rivers, called "LAMALLAA LAGGAA". 3. According the oral account, it was also at the top the Hambaa-Richoo Mountain where the beginning of SPECIFIC SEVEN CLANS of our ancestors (globally) emerged. 4. There were seven females and seven males, who were considered to be our original ancestors. Those 7 females and 7 males, each the original parents of 7 female and 7 male babies. Thus, we had 7 equal females and males who had minor differences in terms of theirs physical attributes. Thus, we had the original 49 females and 49 males (7x7=49). Therefore, despite all kinds of "Revisionist Theories", that was why in Kambattaa, before deciding to have children, young girls and boys have to count SEVEN (7) lines of their CLAN backgrounds. This was also good for two reasons: A. You might not have 'genetically-compromised' babies. B. It also sets respectful/peaceful relationships amongst and between different/diverse CLAN members. All the CLAN members, having had their similar and specific basic skills necessary for life, they used to "barter" goods & services, without exploitation/taking advantage/abuse. 5. According to the oral accounts, there was "NO DEATH/DYING" for a long time. It was said that, as there were no diseases, after many, many years of live-experiences, individuals used to begin to diminish/shrink in their overall physical attributes (they used to call it:Growing smaller and smaller), and then end-up disappearing into what they used to call "THE GAMBALLAA-AAZZAY" (The Black Hole). As a matter of fact, there is an area called: MASSAAFFAY, at the bottom of one of the three mountains 6. All the items needed for life: Food, housing, clothing, and the rest are commonly shared. However, specific skills, such as: Carpentry, Pottery-making, Iron/other metal molding/shaping (I never liked to use the phrase:"Black-Smith"), and other specific skills were bartered and/or taught 7. Unfortunately, such peaceful-coexistence amongst and between "EQUAL" peoples were betrayed, by some CLAN members. Some of them started to ignore the "sharing and bartering system", on an equal-basis. That was when the "Invisible/Black-one" intervened. Instead of accepting the new terms, where by the ideas of "negotiated settlement" of disputes, some of the CLAN members continued to ignore. That lead into in-fights, and by extension into what we call: WAR. However, according to the her/historical accounts, the "BLACK-ONE" of the "SACRED SITE", is still available to help resolve all kinds of disputes, peacefully. 8. Finally, according to the teachings of the "The WISE/STORY TELLER CLAN ", optimism, collectively hoping & wishes, for the positive out-come, by all peoples of the EARTH, we can create long-lasting peace. That is actually the most important essence of The Mount Hamba-Richoo...
