Africa is a truly amazing world of wonders, artists, animals and history. The past has captured the imaginations of many people across the planet, and Africa offers some that cannot be rivalled.

The first recorded detailed writings in Africa were those written by the Egyptians in 4000 BC. They showed some truly astonishing intelligence, built pyramids and had presented the world with an amazing civilization. Many scientists and academics believe that if you are to look back in time to decipher which was the first civilization on our planet, you should look at who had the first comprehensive writings, this means it would have been the Egyptians. Way back in the ancient times over one thousand decades ago, Africa looked very different. Fossils showed that they supported Homo sapiens, which are the same genus as us.

The African Countryside was as said, very different to the desolate plains it is now. At the end of the Ice Age about 10,500 years ago, the Sahara desert was actually a very lush green meadow of land. Thanks to land like this, the options for farming would have been easy. When you then think of where the continent of Africa is on our planet it is easy to see why the land became desert. These people would then have had to migrate to plains with more grassland. By 3000 BC some civilizations across the world but specifically in Africa had started domesticating animals like horses and donkeys to do farming work.
