1.  Recall: The Empire of Ghana was located in Western Africa in what is today the countries of Mauritania, Senegal, and Mali. The region lies just south of the Sahara Desert and is mostly savanna grasslands. Major rivers in the region such as the Gambia River, Senegal River, and the Niger River served as the means of transportation and trade. The capital city of Ancient Ghana was Koumbi Saleh. This is where the King of Ghana lived in his royal palace. Archeologists estimate that up to 20,000 people lived in and around the capital city.
2. Explain: Ancient Ghana derived power and wealth from gold and the introduction of the camel during the Trans-Saharan trade increased the quantity of goods that were  transported. Majority of the knowledge of Ghana comes from the Arab writers. The  mines were situated at Bambuk, on the upper Senegal river. The  Soninke people also sold slaves, salt and copper in exchange for textiles, beads  and finished goods. They built their capital city, Kumbi Saleh, right on the  edge of the Sahara and the city quickly became the most dynamic and important  southern terminus of the Saharan trade routes.
