I read Samuel baker and his journey to discover the Nile, but it's in a much recent period. James Bruce seems to touch more on the southern side and the relations between Sennar and Abyssinia at his time.

I am asking as far as Herodotus and so on, till the christian era and the early days of Islam

in the same line as apocalypto and the new world.

I just like the setting and the sense of danger in this genre, and the exploration of a rich land and the conflicts that ensues.

first cow, Revenant, Jeremiah Johnson, and the whole genre of western and new western. even today the west seems to be a great source for cinematic inspiration.

just here to share my fascination with this genre in general and to ask for recommendations for maybe other works from Latin America or Europe that dealt with the topic of the early encounters.
