[@LuizAlexPhoenix]

It always fascinates me how knowledge like this was both lost and recreated through history. AFAIK, despite having taken Qart Hadash and supposedly their trade routes, the Romans lacked naval prowess and knowledge. Thus, having conquered many other lands they and their sucessors focused on Eurasia. Then, thousands of years later, a small Iberian kingdom, bottled up on the South West of Iberia and constantly at odds with the bigger realms surrounding it, would once more travel down the western coast of Africa, reaching India as well as the mythical island of parrots called Brazil.

[@g-rexsaurus794]

The ancients called all sub-Saharan Africans "Ethiopians", while the term "Africa" (or even greater 'Libya' which basically extended from the North Atlantic to today's Libya) was exclusively used for North-Afrrica. Africans were berbers, Ethiopians were black people in general as well as the inhabitants of Ethiopia, Nubians were black people in southern Egypt. If you read Diodorus Siculus for example he also uses these terms in this fashion.

[@cosmickitty3009]

This was a great video!! and although this video is quite old, I wanted to add some of my thoughts, just in case you guys or someone might read them and find value in them I want to start by saying that the Chetres river, to me seems to be the now extinct Tamanrasset River. The bay with the 3 islands bigger than Kerne could definitely be the Bay of Arguin, based on his description. I think the mountains he speaks of are not the Bambouk Mountains in Mali but the hills that separate the area of this bay from the basin where the modern-day capital of Mauritania, Nouakchott is. Overhung definitely means close by, if not touching the bay to me and not 7 days by foot (google maps estimate) inland. The second broad river with the Crocodiles and hippos is definitely the Sengal River though, but I think in this video you've kind of welded them together into the same one. I think this is possible considering the north of Africa, and the Sahara was wetter and lusher according to Herodotus as well- I could see the area were talking about here being a continuation of the Sahel, since we know and have seem in our modern time continued desertification pushing it south. I think this also lines up with the next location and the description of the mountains with the colorful trees that they stay at after coming back from Kerne being the Dakar area. which I agree with. since it is quite hilly and the Thies Forest is in the area, which contains Baobabs. I could imagine the forests growing to Dakar back in these times for sure. But from there, I disagree pretty wildly. I think after sailing around these mountains for 2 days, and seeing the open ocean could translate into the team stopping north of Dakar and sailing around Cape Verde and the plain being the relatively flat area between there and either the Gambia or Geba Bay. Although how the "horn of the west" doesn't mean Cape Verde is lost to me, and perhaps it is and the greener Sahara is much much different than today. I think it would be interesting to see if maybe, the great bay "Horn of the West" was actually the Geba bay, and the island with the lagoon was actually the Bissagos archipelago, where Hanno disembarked and got afraid and left. "Chariot of the Gods" was not Mt. Cameroon but the Loos Archipelago next to Conakry. Making the "Horn of the South" the Lion Mountains next to Freetown- which does have Chimpanzees living there in the Tacugama Sanctuary. Which I think, they already lived there. I think that ending spot for the journey would match up pretty well with my belief that bro did not go that far.

[@flagearvideo]

The last bit is conjecture, to say they were keeping secret from other atlantic trading? No one went beyond the Pillars (Atlantic Ocean) before the Phoenicians until the Romans many years later.

[@ArchaiaHistoria]

I probably should have sourced it better but I was merely parroting the Brian Warmington's thoughts on the nature of the periplus: "Some scholars resort to textual emendations, justified in some cases; but it is probable that what we have before us is a report deliberately edited so that the places could not be identified by the competitors of Carthage. From everything we know about Carthaginian practice, the resolute determination to keep all knowledge of and access to the western markets from the Greeks, it is incredible that they would have allowed the publication of an accurate description of the voyage for all to read. What we have is an official version of the real report made by Hanno which conceals or falsifies vital information while at the same time gratifying the pride of the Carthaginians in their achievements." (Carthage 1964, 76) Also on your second point, the Greeks had been beyond the pillars of Heracles since the mid-7th Century BCE with the journey of Soleus, and traded with the Spaniards of Tartessos. They maintained this trade until at least the mid-6th century BCE. Later on as well Pytheas would famously travel the Atlantic coast of Europe in his travels.

There is a strong current that acts as a fast conveyor belt for trade ships to travel from the Azores to the Caribbean.

Many associate Cannananites with phoneticians. Maybe some Phonecians during voyage migrated North from Yoruba land in Lagos to northern Nigeria and intermixed with a Nilotic or niger congo ethnic group which could explain Hausa similarity in language to Berbers and DNA just wild theory though might be interesting.
