The Sahara was once wet.

 

 “Sometime between 11,000 and 5,000 years ago, after the last ice age ended, the Sahara Desert transformed. Green vegetation grew atop the sandy dunes and increased rainfall turned arid caverns into lakes. About 9 million square kilometers or 3.5 million square miles of Northern Africa turned green, drawing in animals such as hippos, antelopes, elephants and aurochs (wild ancestors of domesticated cattle), who feasted on its thriving grasses and shrubs. This lush paradise is long gone, but could it ever return? 

 

However, a much better explanation is the flood of  Noah’s time roughly 4,500 years ago

Evolutionist claim that” the Green Sahara, also known as the African Humid Period, was caused by the Earth's constantly changing orbital rotation around its axis, a pattern that repeats itself every 23,000 years, according to Kathleen Johnson, an associate professor of Earth systems at the University of California Irvine.

This is based on the faulty teachings  of  Milankovitch cycles(i.e. changes in the Earth's orbit around the Sun), They are unable to explain why our planet would have had an ice age.
