Ancient
Documents created during the New Kingdom of Egyptrecord that to the west there were large populations of metal workers who lived in towns and had plentiful livestock. The only plausible location for these "Libyans" is the Jebel Akhdar. The ancient Greek colony of Cyrene was located in a lush valley in the Jebel Akhdar, with the ruins remaining.It was the Greeks who introduced farming to the Jebal Akhdar when they colonised its verdant valleys in around 600 BC.
Italian occupation
During the Italian occupation these mountains were identified as a promising area for agriculture and many Italians moved here in the 1930s. This settlement was interrupted during World War II and the villages and farms were deserted and were later reoccupied by Libyans. The mountain chain was the site of major battles between the British Commonwealth and the Axis forces during World War II.
Liberation
The Libyan leader Omar al-Mukhtar used this heavily forested mountainous region to resist the Italian colonization of Libyafor more than twenty years.
