Here is what Vamana Purana said about King KURU:
"THE TALES OF KING KURU AND KURUKSHETRA

In course of time, Tapti gave birth to a son, who possessed all the signs of royalty. After growing up, he mastered all the four Vedas and other scriptures within a very short period. At the raw age of 24, he became a scholar. When he attained marriageable age, he was married to Saudamini- the daughter of Sudama. Later on, he was appointed as the successor by his father, Samvaran.

After becoming the king, Kuru ruled his subjects in a just manner but very soon he got bored of his monotonous life. He knew that only those kings became immortal who accomplished amazing feats. He decided to do something for which people would remember him. With the objective of making his name immortal, he went to the most sacred place called Samantpanchak and decided to cultivate the eight virtues - Tapa, Satya, Kshama, Daya, Shauch, Daan, Yuga and Brahmacharya on its barren land. He started ploughing a piece of land with a golden plough, which was pulled by Lord Shankar's bull and Yamaraj's buffalo named Paundrak.

While he was busy ploughing the field, Indra approached him and asked suspiciously as to what he was trying to cultivate. When Kuru revealed his intentions, Indra made fun of him and went back. But Kuru was not worried and continued to cultivate the land. In a very short time, he had already cultivated the land measuring 7 kosas. One day, Lord Vishnu arrived and asked the same question, which Indra had asked. When Kuru revealed his intentions, Lord Vishnu was surprised and wondered as to from where he would get the seeds to grow these things. Kuru told him that all these eight virtues were present in his own body and it would not be a difficult task to cultivate these things. Lord Vishnu wanted to test his commitment and sincerity and said- "Give the seeds to me. I would sow the seeds while you should plough the field."

Kuru outstretched his right hand but Lord Vishnu cut it into thousands of pieces with his chakra. All the pieces were distributed among the deities but Kuru was unfazed and again stretched his left hand towards Lord Vishnu. But his left hand too met the same fate. In this way, the most generous and benevolent King Kuru offered all his organs to Lord Vishnu. But all the organs were severed by Lord Vishnu. At last, Kuru offered his head as he had nothing else to offer. Lord Vishnu was pleased by his generosity and asked him to demand anything. Kuru replied- "All the area cultivated by me should become famous as a sacred pilgrimage. All the devotees who visit or die at this sacred pilgrimage must attain salvation. This place should be known by my name."

This is how the most sacred place of pilgrimage- Kurukshetra came into existence"

Black Granite stones were used in carving DEITIES often by people in ancient times. They also used them for building temples all over as they lasted a long time in heat or rough tropical climate regions of the world.
Again these tribes were from ARya origin only, as they worshipped BAAL GOD aka BALAJI in Canaan regions first, before continental drift. They might be speaking "hamitic languages" and aryan language of persian or other INDIC languages like TAMIL OR TELUGU or MALAYALUM or KANNADA then. BUT in SOuth africa regions, they could be speaking hundreds of other dilects esp after continental drift time line.

languages also got evolved, just like animals and Human kingdoms.

According to this site:
"http://www.kuru.fi/englishkuru.htm"

"Kuru lies 50 km north of Tampere, and has approximately 3000 inhabitants"
In Bhaghavad Gita, LORD KRSNA in Chapter XI, verse #48, addressed ARJUN as a person from "KURU PARIVAR" (Tvadhanyena Kurupravir).

It is very clear that "original creation of living forms got moved over to AFRICA after continental drift and the people who got exposed to heat and roguh climate climatic conditions became part of African communities since then. Because of war, famine and isolation from rest of the world of religious people, their culture remained as "ABorigine" after the departure of LORD KRSNA back in 6,428BCE-6,320BCE. Yes, people lived still in pangaea state then. All kingdoms were next to each other, before ABRAHM's time.

where is this TEMPERE today in Africa located?

Kuru is also a disease. PRION pathogen infected people get that disease.

IT is also used a last name by some artists like
"Giorgio Kuru"

Chinese people were w hindus in Canaan region during the time of BAAL GOD worshipping dragons. THey were prevedic period people. OLDER than ADAM and EVE time, but younger than Sanskrit speaking Hindus.

Briha Upanishad has some notes on GAUTAMI MUNI, who was a hindu during that time or was noted for his existence before the VEDIC period. Japanese scripts have so much in common w Phonician alphabetical strokes and also those found in Sumerian region, unlike Hibru dilect or its later formulation w Persian/INDIC scripts.
