Do we know the size and health of the Amazon at this time?

I’ve read that the Amazon relies on silt carried from the Sahara.

Some time ago I read that there was a time when the Amazon wasn’t all jungle. I don’t know the veracity nor timeframe but I’m guessing within the last few thousand years.

Did you mean the Nile? I can't think of any method that would get silt from the Sahara in Africa to the Amazon in South America.
