The two tribes lived there in a plum lakeside community when the Sahara Desert, as we know it, was a lush, green country, but were separated by effects of climate change over a time line of 1,000 years.

Some 200 graves of humans were found during fieldwork at the site in 2005 and 2006, as well as remains of animals, large fish and crocodiles. The first group, known as the Kiffian, hunted wild animals and speared huge perch with harpoons. They colonized the region when the Sahara was at its wettest, between 10,000 and 8,000 years ago.

The second group lived in the region between 7,000 and 4,500 years ago. The Tenerians were smaller and had a mixed economy of hunting, fishing and cattle herding. It’s hard to imagine two more biologically distinct groups of people burying their dead in the same place. Both the groups had different eating patterns, its amazing how a pile of bones can give you so much information.

Wonderful find. They must be the ones to hold the key to the Holy Grail and the Arc of Covenant. We must not waste any time rounding them up and question them. After all we need peace and solution to all problems in this world.
