What did the ancient (bronze age to late roman) MENA look like? I have read that the Sahara was not fully closed by the Punic wars

>Bronze Age to late Roman

I found this site that may be of interest as well
Nolan Scott
Yeah I really meant bronze age but late Roman Republic would also be good
Samuel Torres
It fucking changed a lot. The only ones who didn't completely change are the Egyptians
Justin Sanders
I found this map but that would be way earlier
Robert Jones
>MENA
what does this stand for, google gives nothing

Sedimentation at the mouths of the Tigris and Euphrates in the Persian Gulf is a big geographic change. Ur might even have been coastal around 3000 BC.

I've heard this theory and I don't fully agree with it, there's not much evidence that it's a port city other than the existence of obvious long distance trade. That could of just as easily happened from where the current sea level is, give or take but surely not that vast of a distance.

>Sahara was not fully closed by the Punic wars
what do you mean?
Jacob Jackson
It was still grassland or savannah in what is desert in the present day
Cameron Sanchez
What is this ? Does this thing can be eaten ?
Juan Jones

Jace Gray

Juan Sullivan
The Sahara is going through a dry period and has been for the past few thousand years
Anthony Perez
desertification, old bean
Dylan Brown
do you know when that started?
Lincoln Parker
>MENA
Could people stop using this retarded term? Especially when it comes to history before islamic conquests. What does Morocco in 1500 BC have in common with Afghanistan in 1500 BC? Nothing.
Alexander Hall
I want to see the Sahara and middle-eastern deserts back then
Blake Sanchez
Exactly. I knew I wasn't the only one who thought this, it seems to be some political buzzword.
