    To develop a community that is stable rather than nomadic you need arable crops like wheat or corn or the ability to domesticate animals (such as cattle, again for food and trade). In the northern parts of Africa such as Egypt they had access to such crops, they stayed on the Nile and developed communities, the excess from the crops was traded, creating enough wealth to enable parts of the community to work on higher arts, and also enabling knowledge sharing with those that they came into contact with. Once you get into the jungles of Africa it becomes much harder/next to impossible to have city style living. It is nomadic due to food supplies. This constant movement makes it very difficult to develop the wealth to develop the higher arts. Further, this lack of contact with other areas that are more developed makes knowledge sharing impossible.
