Africa is surrounded by 3 bodies of water The Atlantic Ocean, The Indian Ocean, and the Mediterranean Sea this is great for Africa for food and for protection. African two most important resources are gold and salt. Salt was manly used to preserve food and give bland food taste and they needed salt in their diets to live so salt was to survive and gold was just for beauty. The salt came from ancient lakes that dried up and all that was left was salt, they reached the salt by digging deep into the earth. The gold came from the southern forests. The gold miners kept the location of the gold mines a secret so no one knows where the gold mines are today but gold was an important resource for trading.
