Source: Flavius Josephus, Antiquities of the Jews (Tufts University) 1895 A.D. From the source, "The children of Ham possessed the land from Syria and Amanus, and the mountains of Libanus; seizing upon all that was on its sea-coasts, and as far as the ocean, and keeping it as their own." This source confirms the ancient black presence in the Middle East.
