0:52Now PlayingBetween 20,000 and 12,000 years ago, the Nile River underwent dramatic transformations during a cold, dry interval. The river flowed as a highly seasonal braided stream, carrying mixed sediments into Egypt and Sudan. By 12,500 years ago, this changed radically with overflow from Lake Victoria and increased Ethiopian rainfall, triggering extraordinary floods 120 feet above the modern floodplain. These events forced early inhabitants to adapt to a revolutionary hydraulic regime, fundamentally altering life along the Nile.
