Sand Routes
We are a group of journalists that focus on the Trans-Saharan Routes or the Sand Routes of the Post-Classical Period. We pay special attention to the social, political, economic, and many more aspects of the region.
Above, one of our journalists enjoying and contemplating the Sahara desert, location where the Sand Roads take place.
The Trans-Saharan Trading network, also known as the Sand Routes were used during the Post Classical Period (600-1450 CE). This route is located across the northern half of the African continent. Most of the people that traveled through this route were Arab merchants and people that conveyed the islamic faith.
