Well, the ancestors of the people from Zimbabwe came from somewhere. It is known that some of the earlier ancestral spirits never set foot in Zimbabwe, but were already long dead when our forebears entered the land now called Zimbabwe.
For example, Chaminuka is known to have been the spirit medium in his own right before being elevated to a guiding spirit. Dr Aenas Chigwedere, now Minister of Education in the present government of Zimbabwe, has witnessed and documented the manifestation of Chaminuka's guiding spirit, a Christian missionary who came from Israel, whose name is Ngauza, and who was with the ancestors of the Zimbabweans when they moved out of Ethiopia, probably to escape the Islamic onslaught.
Of course, Babylon's people were black, African. Like the world powers, they had many religious systems functioning there. Through the Roman Empire, and then Vatican Rome, the West has inherited the most unsavoury one.
