Words of Hanno The Navigator - Ancient Explorer // 5th century BC // Primary Source

Here we have the words of Hanno the Navigator, famed Carthaginian explorer and one of the earliest accounts of West Africa that has survived to the present day. Saved from the burning remains of Carthage by a Greek translation, the text itself allegedly hung on a temple wall along with the dried gorilla skins mentioned in his story for almost three hundred years, before Carthage was finally crushed entirely by Rome. Head over to Archaia Istoria for analysis of the text!    • Hanno the Navigator   As is often the case with texts of this age, many of the locations are a source of much debate amongst modern (and indeed ancient) historians, so do continue the debate in the comments. This is a collaboration between more than twenty history youtubers as part of #projectafrica:    • Project Africa   Particular shout out to History with Cy:    • Introduction to Ancient Nubia and the King...   and Cogito...    • Who Are The San Bushmen? | The World's Old...   And finally, of course, History Time, who has something very special...
