Okay, so this will probably be a great insult to white people but NOT all ethnic groups have a "written" history. But just because they don't doesn't mean their history, which was orally passed down from their ancestors, is FALSE or unfounded. I won't be surprised to find out that those who DON'T UNDERSTAND this are white and can't possibly conceive of this notion. It's like kids who have both parents can never truly understand the perspective of the orphaned-child. 'Cause they have always had it good to begin with. 
There are plenty of indigenous people who have no written record of their history and the constant annihilation of their people by the governments in control make it difficult for them to do so. Take for example the rich and diverse cultures in China. But will we westerners ever know about them before the Chinese wipe them all out? Not only that, but it's not like the Chinese are going to even write anything about such people. Their stories will go unheard as if they never existed.
