North Africa, the Sahara Desert, quite recently in geological time was a flourishing land, with full-flowing rivers and cities. This is also confirmed by water erosion from rainstorms on the Egyptian Sphinx.
And it turns out that there are enough traces of a highly developed civilization in these places. And these are not only Egyptian pyramids, temples, Sudanese pyramids. Whole and destroyed dams remained in the dry river beds.
Blogger petgraph writes about this:
… Quite recently, with incredible surprise, I realized that North Africa (I must say, I didn’t read anything about changing history at that time, maybe I guessed somehow) in the recent past was a green continent. And no evidence is needed here - they are all like in the palm of your hand, you just have to look through the window, sitting in an airplane departing from a resort in Marsa Alam.
The entire east coast is pitted with deltas, riverbeds and lakes! All this is now dry, but what was quite recently different is a fact! I saw dilapidated clay houses, which were built following these bends, as it were, only in the wild antiquity of deep rivers! Those. not pyramids, not something monumental, but villages. Well, who, one wonders, prevented the construction of houses as necessary, say, at the bottom of the former rivers?
So, literally 10-15 minutes after takeoff, when the plane had not yet gained altitude, I noticed an incredible object, about which I did not find anything on the network later:

Dam! 200 m long, pyramidal in cross section and perfectly visible from an airplane. So my question is, what is this design? How old is it and when the east of Africa was green and full-flowing, if such structures like dams remained in the river beds?
Later, looking at it on Google, I noticed the 2nd, slightly to the east. Smaller - "only" 100 meters long - "smaller" dam And all this despite the fact that there is no civilization nearby within a radius of 300 km, except for hotels.
Another dam found in the bed of a long-dried river
And further. We see 3 dams, in the section-trapezoid
Riddle. With dams - this is a snapshot from Google. No dams - from Bing (https://www.bing.com/maps/?v=2&cp=26.118727~34.232040&lvl=16&dir=0&sty=h&form=LMLTCC)
I don't think that some Bing has newer maps than Google, it turns out that dams appeared in the last 5 (?) Years.
