The Nile is Middle Eastern, not only African!

The River Nile originates from Lake Sana, which was part of The Aksumite Kingdom. Thus it is the life line of the civilization in Aksum and Egypt. Egypt is older than Aksum or probably as old as the pre-Aksumite communities in Tigray.

Thus The Nile is not only a river in Africa but also that of Middle Eastern people and also the Mediterranean people. Without the Nile there could be have not been a large Mediterranean Sea as we see it today and without Mediterranean Sea, there would have been no Greek or Rome. The Nile is more celebrated in Turkey, Egypt, Sudan, Tigray than in South Ethiopia.
