The Sahara: Fertile Land and Inland Sea Before the Desert

The Sahara: Fertile Land and Inland Sea Before the DesertpostHuman historyPeopleSaharaHuman history People Sahara.

The Sahara keeps turning up in my Atlantis research as a place that was not always desert: a fertile land, a sea, or an ocean floor, depending on who is speaking. These are the pages where it appears.

A fertile land

On Edgar Cayce: First cycle of Atlantis I quote a reading that describes the earth in the earliest period:

The Nile entered into the Atlantic Ocean. What is now the Sahara was an inhabited land and very fertile.

In The Exodus to Egypt Matias de Stefano describes people taking a southern route through fertile valleys in the region that is now the Sahara. In Great Pyramids & Atlantis on a 7,000-Year-Old Ancient Relic? Jimmy Corsetti cites studies showing that the Sahara turned from a tropical environment into a desert about 4,500 years ago.

The Sahara Sea

The Theosophical writers put water there. On Poseidonis – W. Scott-Elliot Scott-Elliot notes that the Sahara desert then formed part of the ocean floor. On The Sinking of Poseidonis and Its Impact on Ancient Egypt C. W. Leadbeater writes that the Sahara Sea was shallow but carried the fleets that traded with Atlantis and the Algerian Islands. On Beginning of the 5th Root Race Annie Besant has people shipped off through the Sahara Sea in a small fleet of thirty ships.

Sattamund

On The vailx, powered by currents derived from the Night-Side of Nature Frederick S. Oliver’s travellers spend a night over Sattamund, the wasted land, which the page glosses as the Sahara desert of today.

For every page I tagged with Sahara, see the Sahara tag archive.
