What is another word for Hamite?
Pronunciation: [hˈama͡ɪt] (IPA) 
The word "Hamite" is a controversial term used historically to describe supposed descendants of Ham, one of Noah's sons, who were thought to have populated Africa. However, this term has fallen out of favor in modern times due to its association with colonialism and racism. Instead, other terms such as "Afro-Asiatic," "Cushitic," or "Nilo-Saharan" are used to describe African peoples and cultures. These terms are based on linguistic and genetic research and reflect a more accurate and respectful understanding of Africa's diverse populations. As language evolves, it is important to recognize and discard outdated and harmful terminology.
