There are two prevailing theories. The first is the change in the tilt of the Earth which put more direct sunlight onto Northern Africa. The other is that when India slammed into Asia, the Himalayan Mts rose and it redirected warm winds that would eventually dump onto Northern Africa. But the story is told that Northern Africa was tropical just a little over 15,000 years ago (and maybe even more recently). It is hard to assume that either of those theories could have that type of impact in that time frame. But it is just another example of why we know so little about Earth's history, we only have guesses. |

Henna. Western Horseman, 1942: "ONE HUNDRED and nine years ago Hensoe Von Grabere, Swedish consul in Morocco, wrote that the Moroccans preferred the orange and saffron colored horses (Palominos) to any other and that those who could not afford to own one dyed their white or cream colored horses with henna. I can verify this and say that to this day in north Africa and Egypt I have seen many Arabs paint their horses at rider-festivals with their favorite color -- saffon," |

What are the correct terms for For example, France was known
as Gaul, Spain was known as
Hispania, and the east was
Parthia/Persia. So roughly
around 500 AD, was there a
specific term for the Italian
peninsula, and/or Northern
Africa (specifically
Carthage)?

Italy had the same name back then, whereas N. Africa except Egypt was called Libya |
