What was the size of the Aral sea in year 1000 CE?
Before the 1960s, the size of the Aral Sea was relatively consistent. However, the Aral Sea went through some &quot;dry spells&quot; during the 1st and 3rd centuries BCE. Going even further back, the Aral Sea dried up during the Early Pleistocene and was &quot;refilled&quot; during the Early Holocene. In other words, the Aral Sea probably looked the same in 1000 as it did in 1950. (Encyclopædia Brittanica)
