Do You Know What Happened To The Lost Civilizations Of The Sahara Desert..

This never-ending sand landscape, a blistering sun, with no one in sight... This is how the Sahara, one of the most well-known deserts in the world, appears in people's minds. But this was once a lush green landscape, teeming with live and ancient civilisations. In this video we cover the lost people of this land, from the richat structure also known as the eye of sahara, to the megalithic stones of souther Egypt. You wonder what lies beneath millions of tonnes of sand as you look at the Sahara with its limitless sands and motionless dunes. I suggest going back in time to learn whether this region of Africa has always been parched and lifeless desert. We'll learn what lies beneath the Sahara's sands and learn amazing facts about this enigmatic region.
