In the original novel, Marupa, an accomplished warrior on the island of Shantu, falls in love with Alandra, the eldest daughter of the island's chief. Whoever marries Alandra will eventually become chief since the chief had no sons. At the far side of Shantu lies a dangerous and deadly mountain called Kuja. At the very top of Kuja is the black pearl necklace that a previous chief had placed there to memorialize the death of his wife. Whoever retrieves that necklace will marry Alandra. Marupa is challenged by eleven other warriors to bring back the necklace and marry the princess Alandra. It is now years later and another legend is told about a lost tribe that lives beyond Kuja. The legend goes on to reveal that about forty islanders fled their side of the island generations ago when a deadly plague hit the island when many villagers died. Marupa's twin brothers take it upon themselves to go there and see if there actually is another tribe living there. At the same time, a ship of slave traders come to Shantu to capture all of the villagers and sell them as slaves. There is one more storyline that occurs at the same time that will be revealed in this book. Love, danger, excitement, and courage are compiled into this story.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The Myth of the Twelve Tribes of Israel is the first study to treat the history of claims to an Israelite identity as an ongoing historical phenomenon from biblical times to the present. By treating the Hebrew Bible's accounts of Israel as one of many efforts to construct an Israelite history, rather than source material for later legends, Andrew Tobolowsky brings a long-term comparative approach to biblical and nonbiblical “Israelite” histories. In the process, he sheds new light on how the structure of the twelve tribes tradition enables the creation of so many different visions of Israel, and generates new questions: How can we explain the enduring power of the myth of the twelve tribes of Israel? How does “becoming Israel” work, why has it proven so popular, and how did it change over time? Finally, what can the changing shape of Israel itself reveal about those who claimed it?

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Tudor Parfitt examines a myth which is based on one of the world's oldest mysteries - what happened to the lost tribes of Israel? Christians and Jews alike have attached great importance to the legendary fate of these tribes which has had a remarkable impact on their ideologies throughout history. Each tribe of Israel claimed descent from one of the twelve sons of Jacob and the land of Israel was eventually divided up between them. Following a schism which formed after the death of Solomon, ten of the tribes set up an independent northern kingdom, whilst those of Judah and Levi set up a separate southern kingdom. In 721BC the ten northern tribes were ethnically cleansed by the Assyrians and the Bible states they were placed: in Halah and in Habor by the river of Gozan and in the city of Medes. The Bible also foretold that one day they would be reunited with the southern tribes in the final redemption of the people of Israel. Their subsequent history became a tapestry of legend and hearsay. The belief persisted that they had been lost in some remote part of the world and there were countless suggestions and claims as to where.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →In a mixture of travel, adventure, and scholarship, historian Tudor Parfitt sets out in search of answers to a fascinating ethnological puzzle: is the Lemba tribe of Southern Africa really one of the lost tribes of Israel, descended from King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba? Beginning in the Lemba villages in South Africa, where he witnesses customs such as food taboos and circumcision rites that seem part of Jewish tradition, Parfitt retraces the supposed path of the Lembas' through Zimbabwe, Malawi, and Tanzania, taking in sights like Zanzibar and the remains of the stone city Great Zimbabwe. The story of his eccentric travels, a blend of the ancient allure of King Solomon's mines and Prester John with contemporary Africa in all its beauty and brutality, makes for an irresistible glimpse at a various and rapidly changing continent. And in a new epilogue, Parfitt discusses recent DNA evidence that, amazingly, lends credence to the Lemba's tribal myth.
