YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Just 6,000 to 10,000 years ago, North Africa was lush and fertile—a far cry from the desert we see today.

The Sahara has shifted back and forth between desert and temperate land multiple times.

The latest shift? Around 5,000 years ago—right before the rise of ancient Egypt.

How did it all change so fast?
