At right is a pagan sun wheel in the temple at Kararak India, which is associated with occultism and astrology. It resembles a chariot wheel doesn't it?
Note the following verse-
2 Ki 23:11 And he took away the horses that the kings of Judah had given to the sun, at the entering in of the house of the LORD, by the chamber of Nathanmelech the chamberlain, which was in the suburbs, and burned the chariots of the sun with fire.

When Israel apostatized, they made chariots dedicated to the sun god, who it was thought, traveled across the sky in a great chariot. Hence the origin of the sun wheel.
Siebra:
Here is your previous quote and perhaps Dr. Wesley Muhammad reference to the name Kiakiak maybe in fact be the worship of the Sun Wheel called Kararak?
Your quote:
Thank you both...Before posting this, I was watching a video on Youtube of Dr. Wesley Muhammad's lecture at the National Black Theatre in Harlem, in it he deals with P.N. Oak's claims.
Interesting thing is, in that lecture, he also talked about the sleeping Buddha in Asia, one of its names being Kiakiak. And here in North America was a so-called Native American Indian popularly known as Black Hawk. His tribal name was also Kiakiak.
This data explains sun-worship in more detail and yes the 10 lost tribes of Israel worshiped Baal, Ishtar, and Shamash. Some of the Native Americas Native Indians worshiped idolotry, particularly the Aztecs, Mayans. I stated in a previous blog that the Northern Kingdom was heavy into idol worship in the land of Israel after the split with the southern Kingdom (Judah, Benjamin, Levi) and brought this form of pagan worship to Arsareth (America) 2700 years ago.
Note reference material as follows:
The Akkadian Ishtar is also, to a greater extent, an astral deity, associated with the planet Venus: with Shamash, sun god, and Sin, moon god, she forms a secondary astral triad. In this manifestation her symbol is a star with 6, 8, or 16 rays within a circle. ...

The Star of Ishtar
Because some astronomical objects move through the sky in repeated and known intervals of time, the behavior of the celestial gods associated with them can be symbolized numerically. Ishtar, as the planet Venus, perhaps was handled this way in the eight-pointed star that usually stands for her on Babylonian boundary stones.
References to Venus as early as 3000 BC are known from evidence at Uruk, an important early Sumerian city in southern Iraq. One clay tablet found at the site says "star Inanna," and another contains symbols for the words "star, setting sun, Inanna." Inanna is Venus, known later as Ishtar, and the Uruk tablets specify her celestial identity with the symbol for "star": an eight-pointed star.
