History of Africa – Before 1800
Desertification refers to the process through which fertile land becomes increasingly arid and unproductive, often leading to the expansion of desert landscapes. This phenomenon can result from various factors, including climatic changes and human activities such as deforestation and overgrazing. In the context of the Neolithic Revolution in Africa, desertification significantly impacted agricultural practices, settlement patterns, and the overall lifestyle of communities as they adapted to changing environmental conditions.
