False. The Kingdom of Ghana, which existed from around the 6th to the 13th century, prospered primarily from its control of gold and trade routes rather than ivory and diamonds. While ivory was part of the trade in West Africa, diamonds were not a significant resource in the region during Ghana's peak. The kingdom thrived on trade in gold, salt, and other goods, establishing itself as a powerful entity in the trans-Saharan trade network.
