EARLY HISTORY or SAHARA
There Are Evidences Of the Deserts
Having Been Fertile and
Populated.

In studying the geological history Of
this region, Gautisr found evidence
that 1t was once rainless and was truly
a desert, the gradual desiccation adj
vancing from the Sudan, writes Cyrus
G. Adams, in the American Monthly
Review of Reviews. Then the era of
permanent drought and complete des-
ert conditions gradually came to an
end. To-day a rain belt IL creeping up
from the Sudan and 10 extending
farther and farther north into the
desert. This new epoch may continue
for hundreds Of years.
But the most startling testimony
which Gautier found was absolute
proof that long before the present age
OF rainfall, in what is known as the
neolithic or later stone age, very
large population inhabited this part Of
the Sahara. He found there graves
scattered over the grassy plain: be

which they had used for grinding
grain.
These millstones show that agricul-
ture was then developed in that region
and that the grinding of grain into
-four indicates considerable advance OF
civilization. Here and there were
many arrow points, axes of polished
stone and other implements. It was
many hundreds Of years ago that hui
man beings inhabited this region, but,
as time is reckoned in geological
epochs, thousands of farmers were till
ing this part Of the Sahara at COM
paratively recent period. They were
finally driven back into the Sudan by
the increasing drought and the world
forgot that this region had ever been
inhabited by man.
