How could a ship come to rest on desert sands so far from salt water?

So this whole article is speculation about an idea for which they cite no evidence whatever? It reminds me of the ancient Christian writer Augustine. Asked to comment on what was apparently a debated topic of the time, namely whether creatures like centaurs and satyrs had souls, he opined that he would defer that whole question until it was established that said creatures actually existed.
I don’t know. I have only read The Generals Daughter. I started Sahara and need to pick it back up again.
You have to read the book...
