Herodotus cites a story to the effect that because Cheops and Chefren were so wicked, the Egyptians preferred to call the pyramids after a shepherd named Philitis, ‘who at the time fed his flocks about the place’, which certainly implies that it was green. And in an article called ‘When the Sahara was Green’ (in
The World's Last Mysteries
, 1977), Henry Lhote, a respectable scholar, also says that the Sahara was green in 2500 BC.
