What's Hiding in NABTA PLAYA'S Ancient Sands?

Explore one of Africa’s most compelling archaeological mysteries—Nabta Playa. Buried beneath the scorching sands of the Nubian Desert, this ancient site offers a glimpse into a Green Sahara past where innovative cultures thrived well before the rise of Ancient Egypt. Join us as we uncover the origins of these desert dwellers, their prehistoric astronomy aligned to the stars, and stone circles older than some of the world’s most famous monuments.

In this in-depth video, we dive into the cattle burials that highlight a deep-rooted spiritual practice possibly linked to later Egyptian deities, revealing how desert pastoralists contributed to ancient African civilizations. See how expert archaeologists like Fred Wendorf and Romuald Schild pieced together remnants of complex societies that once flourished in the Sahara’s lush, savanna-like environment. From hidden megalithic structures to extensive water management systems, discover the true scope of Nabta Playa’s influence on Ancient Egyptian roots.
