Dakhla Oasis has been
populated for over 10,000 years. The climate of Dakhla was
similar to that of the African savanna. Buffalo, elephants,
rhinos, zebras, ostriches, and hartebeests wandered around the
shores of a huge lake, on whose southern bank primitive man had
settled to herd his goats and cattle. Remains of the evidence to
this nourishing life are still found.
