Abstract

This study describes the textual practices used in the formation of Western memory by carrying out a mythohistorical interpretation of the ancient Afroasiatic colonizations of the Mediterranean, using as an axis Martin Bernal’s Black Athena. It analyzes the main themes in the processes of symbolic inversion where the alteration of the fabric of ancient mythohistorical tradition would have taken place. My main thesis is that this transformation originated in the anti-traditional force implied in the mechanism of appropriation/erasure/inscription of the heavenly symbols of ancient Egypt, leading to a colonizing memory at the heart of what we call the West, and whose transmission organizes onto-epistemological material through concealment.
