중부 사하라 무역로와 카넴-보르누 문명의 발전 = The Central Saharan Trade Route and the Development of Kanem-Bornu Civilization

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The Kanem-Bornu civilization, which began to appear in the literature of Arab geographers around the 8th century, can be explained by dividing it into the Kanem Kingdom (700-1380) and the Bornu Kingdom (1380-1893). This civilization lasted from the 8th to 19th centuries and has the longest history among African civilizations. The Kanem-Bornu civilization developed as it continued to rise and fall, expanding its power from Chad to Niger, Nigeria, Algeria, and Libya. The Kanem-Bornu civilization developed by interacting with North Africa and Mediterranean through the Central Saharan Trade Route, connecting Libya and Tunisia to the central Mediterranean coast and Egypt. This trade route has existed since the Carthage or Roman times and has been used by Byzantine and Muslims. Currently, the problem in the Sahel region is being dealt with through the Central Saharan Trade Route, so it can be said that the Kanem-Bornu civilization has been historically contextualized and is still affecting the present.
