There are other examples of this genre of history. Here is a debunking from the claim that Vikings were Muslim because something resembling the word "Allah" in Sufic was found on a Viking textile. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/allah-viking...

There are more claims in this genre if you look for them: Hidden Figures, White House built by slaves, 1619 Project. There is probably more and there should be a compendium of false history. The common theme is that Europeans are evil and lack ability but their relative success is explained by theft and oppression from non-white people.
