African, Mediterranean Coastal Desert Plains ReVisited
*It
is important to understand, there is no comparison
to any known ancient alphabet, culture, symbology
or artistic style. Not to mention that there is
NO mention of ANY culture OR civilization prior
to ancient Libyans in this area knowledgeable in
high technology and/or of masonry.
If
we can not define this unique and extra-historical
culture; we can certainly define around it, to better
understand and determine its proper place in the
known historical and scientific record of Earth.
What
can immediately be determined is that several primary
'ancient' cultures have
atleast buffered this region: Egytpian,
Greek, Libyan
and possibly any Mediterranean
Sea cultures.
Also
important to attempt understanding is the geological
record as there appears to have been
an immense river basin perhaps rivaling the Nile
Delta at the Bay of As
Sallum. It is supposed that the coastline
has not so much shifted as has eroded and or the
beach level has risen to create a desert climate
in the current epoch.
Finally,
taking into account the state of affairs regarding
contemporary Nations and Leaders, as well as predicted
climate changes, we might be able to get a glimpse
of the future of this area.
