Abstract: | Shows that the date on the historical levels of the Nile River in Egypt can be used to define when periods of drought and prosperity occurred in East Africa and, therefore, provide a means to check and refine the chronologies derived from the oral evidence. Also traces the climatologic and demographic history of the Interlacústrine region. |
