Trading Gold and Salt
ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

Trading Gold and Salt
ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

Trading Gold and Salt
ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th

Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes

Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

Trading Gold and Salt
ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

Trading Gold and Salt
ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water

Trading Gold and Salt
ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

Trading Gold and Salt
ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

Trading Gold and Salt
ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

Trading Gold and Salt
ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

Trading Gold and Salt
ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

Trading Gold and Salt
ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

Trading Gold and Salt
ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

bull Gold was plentiful in the West African savanna
bull Salt which people need in their diet to prevent dehydration in the Savanna
bull West Africans traded gold to North Africa and for salt (weight)
Trading Gold and Salt
ldquoShips of the Desertrdquo
Camels
African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

African Tradebull Problem In ancient times the Egyptians engaged in just a trickle of commercial trade with west Africa even though West Africa was rich in gold precious metals ivory salt and other resourcesbull Why The reason for this was the imposing barrier of the Sahara which in Arabic simply means The Desert bullSolution The camel is the only animal to have replaced the wheel (mainly in North Africa) where the wheel had already been established The camel did not lose that distinction until the wheel was combined with the internal combustion engine in the 20th century
Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

Why Camels Characteristics- Keep their footing in sliding sand- Go a long time without water - Patient beasts - Run very fast - Carry unbelievably heavy loads for
impossibly long distances
Characteristics continued
- They have a thick coat that aids them in desert-like conditions
- They have large stores of fat which provide energy
- Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground
- Their mouth is very sturdy able to chew thorny desert plants
- Long eyelashes and ear hairs together with sealable nostrils form a barrier against sand
- The kidneys and intestines of a camel are very efficient at retaining water
A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

A Growing Economy Trade has played an important role in the
economy of West Africa since very early times As early as 300 AD camel caravans carried salt from mines in the Sahara Desert to trading centers along the Niger River in present-day Mali
Their mission was to exchange the salt for the gold that was mined in forests near the headwaters of the Niger
West Africas first kingdom Ghana became wealthy and powerful because it controlled the trade routes and commercial activities in its region
The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well

The Spread of Religion The spread of Islam across North Africa in the 7th
century dramatically increased trans-Saharan trade As the market expanded strategically sited towns became major centers of commerce welcoming merchants from distant lands
Merchants transported more than valuable commodities along the trans-Saharan routes Just as Buddhism reached the Chinese Empire via Indian merchants travelling the Silk Road Islam reached black West Africa through Arab Merchants on Saharan caravan routes
During the Ghana Mali and Songhay empires Arab merchants brought the Koran and the written language Arabic to the traditionally oral cultures each empire encompassed
Trade Routes The Saharan Trade extended from the Sub-
Saharan West African kingdoms across the Sahara desert to Europe The Saharan Trade linked such African empires as Ghana Mali and Songhay to the European world
Merchants established a second major gold-salt trade route northeast across the Sahara that passed through Tunis and Cairo and ended in Egypts interior This route complimented the traditional Western Sudan--Maghreb--Europe trade route As the second trade route grew in popularity Egypts influence on the Western Sudan grew as well
