About Lake Makgadikgadi
Lake Makgadikgadi was a paleolake that existed in what is now the Kalahari Desert in Botswana from 2,000,000 years BP to 10,000 years BP. It may have once covered an area of from 80,000 to 275,000 km² and was 30 m deep. The Okavango, Upper Zambezi, and Cuando rivers once all emptied into the lake.
