Abstract: | [eng] The Garamants, located in the Phazania region, are the Libyan people who most attracted the interest of Greek authors since Herodotus in the 5th century BC. This interest remained alive during the time of Roman, Vandal and Byzantine Africa, until the 7th century AD. The aim of this paper is to approach the people of the Garamants, to find out why their civilization similarly captivated Greeks and Romans and how it could develop in the Sahara desert ; we will also try to explain the reasons why the Garamants disappear as a people, between the end of Antiquity and the High Middle Ages and, finally, we will point out the deep traces of their civilization in the rest of the Mediterranean -particularly in our country- while focusing on the latest contributions of archaeological, philological, historiographical and linguistic research. |
