Dakhla

 

   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.
