Ten thousand years ago this area was covered with trees and grass. It supported such game animals as elephant, rhinoceros, giraffe, ibex, deer, antelope, wild ass, and ostrich. Nabta contains tombs not only for humans but also for wild cattle, foreshadowing the cow cult that would prevail in ancient egypt.[/b] - From A Brief History of Egypt by Jr. Goldschmidt Arthur (2007) How wild or domesticated the cattle were is still a matter of debate among archaeologists.
