Men's tunic Material: Wax Care: wash at 30 degrees The history of the Bassa'a -Mpoo - Bati of Cameroon. Legend has it that the distant ancestors of the Bassa'a-Mpoo-Bati ethnic group lived in ancient Egypt around the 10th century. And later, to escape their many enemies, they crossed seas and countries to arrive in a mysterious cave, today called Ngog Lituba in Cameroon. They rushed into this refuge which a spider hastened to close with a gigantic web. The Bassa'a pursuers passed by without suspecting their presence. This myth has since then been the basis of the attachment of the Bassa'a-Mpoo-Bati peoples (grouped within the Mbog Liaa association) to the Ngog Lituba cave (photo). The president of the Mbog Liaa association, Jérôme Minlend, explained that the Bassa'a-Mpoo-Bati are “viscerally attached to this place in a mythical and mystical way.” The guardians of the oral tradition called “Mbombog” are responsible for perpetrating the myth about the Egyptian origin of the Bassa'a. “If archaeological excavations were carried out, they would, without a doubt, show traces of this ancient civilization that a meteorite would have partly destroyed,” Mbombog Mbog Bassong believes. The latter adds that the Bassa-Mpoo-Bati peoples “have coexisted since the Egypt of the pharaohs of which they constituted the priestly clergy (the learned priests), judging the significant rate of recovery when we appreciate the names of the Egyptian gods in the languages and thought of this community.”

L’histoire des Bassa’a -Mpoo - Bati du Cameroun.
La légende rapporte que les lointains ancêtres du groupe ethnique Bassa’a-Mpoo-Bati vivaient dans l’Egypte ancienne vers le Xè siècle. Et que plus tard, pour échapper à leurs nombreux ennemis, ils traversèrent des mers et des contrées pour déboucher dans une grotte mystérieuse, appelée aujourd’hui Ngog Lituba au Cameroun. Ils s’engouffrèrent dans ce refuge qu’une araignée s’empressa de fermer d’une gigantesque toile. Les poursuivants des Bassa’a passèrent ainsi sans se douter de leur présence. Ce mythe est depuis lors, le socle de l’attachement des peuples Bassa’a-Mpoo-Bati (regroupés au sein de l’association Mbog Liaa) à la grotte Ngog Lituba (photo). Le président de l’association Mbog Liaa, Jérôme Minlend, expliquait que les Bassa’a-Mpoo-Bati sont «viscéralement attachés à cet endroit de façon mythique et mystique.»
Les gardiens de la tradition orale appelés «Mbombog » se chargent de perpétrer le mythe sur l’origine égyptienne des Bassa’a. «Si des fouilles archéologiques étaient faites, elles montreraient, à n’en pas douter, les traces de cette ancienne civilisation qu’une météorite aurait en partie détruite», croit savoir Mbombog Mbog Bassong. Ce dernier rajoute que les peuples bassa-Mpoo-Bati «ont coexisté depuis l’Egypte des pharaons dont ils constituaient le clergé sacerdotal (les prêtres savants), à en juger le taux de recouvrement important quand on apprécie les noms des dieux égyptiens dans les langues et la pensée de cette communauté.»
