What is Linguistic Prehistory of the Sahara about?
This document discusses the linguistic prehistory of the Sahara desert. It begins by outlining the current major language groups in the region - Arabic, Berber, Saharan languages like Kanembu and Teda-Daza, and Songhay. It then examines earlier inscriptional languages like Libyco-Berber and Punic. The document proposes that the present linguistic uniformity is relatively recent and that during the "green Sahara" period there was likely much more diversity, with languages from different phyla.
