One of my favourite YouTube channels has been delving into the history of economics, trade and commerce between ancient empires and nations, my favourite topic when it comes to learning about civilisations. On this video, he addressed the Red Sea trade between Ptolemaic Egypt and Rome with Punt (Somalia) and ancient India. Although he doesn’t talk about Punt in detail, it really made my day that he mentioned ancient Somalia and it’s great that people can learn to see that Somalia has a long, rich and fascinating history and that the current status of the country doesn’t define our nation.
