In ancient Vedic lore, Africa was known as KushaDeep, or Kushadvipa, reasons for this is because large stretches of land were covered by the tall grass known as kush grass in Sanskrit, and after the war between Ram ji and Ravana, it was under the administration of Rama’s son Kush
Africa was under the administration of Prabhu Rama’s son Kush, or Cusha. African school text books also describe Africans as Cushites, testifying to the above information.
About Ramayan they say- This is nothing new to us. We Africans are Cushites.” This is what motivated Swami Krishnanand to search the African school text books and find references of Africans designated as Cushites.
In Africa The text books provided more evidence of Africa’s ancient administration of Cusha. However, the text books wrongly mention Cusha’s father as Ham instead of Prabhu Ram.
As previously explained, that is because Rama was spelled in western regions as Rham. In course of time the “R” was dropped and what was left was “Ham.”
Africa in ancient times was also known as Shankadvipa. The word dvipa is Sanskrit for island, and Shanka is Sanskrit for conch. This was because Africa was like a large island in the shape similar to a conch shell.
The English word conch is a derivative of the Sanskrit shank. This also shows how the Vedic rulers were so familiar with Africa that they knew its shape as seen from miles above it.
