The Cushitic languages (spoken by Cushitic peoples) are a branch of the Afroasiatic language family spoken in the Horn of Africa, Kenya, Sudan and Egypt. They are named after the Biblical character Cush, who was identified as an ancestor of the speakers of these specific languages as early as AD 947 (in Masudi’s Arabic history Meadows of Gold). The most populous Cushitic language is Oromo with about 35 million speakers, followed by Somali with about 18 million speakers, and Sidamo in Ethiopia with about 2 million speakers. Other languages with more than one million speakers are Hadia (1.6 million), Kambata (1.4 million), and Afar (1.5 million).



look at that, horn of africa (somalis ethiopians) kenya (somali speakers in somali inhabited area) sudan, egypt....lol....all those speak cushitic language, and all look the same.....

but supposedly they have nothing in common with eachother or the name they gave themselves cush, whcih their languages are named after...lol


Dude the history of the horn of africa is very rich and long......Aksum empire controlled arabia for hundreds of years. and aksum stretched all the way to souther egypt, sudan, ethiopia, djbitou, eritrea, somalia and the middle east

Kush had a DIFFERENT MEANING back than. There was NEVER a Nubia until the fall of the Kingdom of Kush.

And STILL the people who inhabitaed the KOK were people of modern day SUDAN NOT HORN.


dude the entire people in the area called themselves cush. and what do you mean back then....what am talking about is the same thing.....amaraha and tigrey are semtic and are recent arrivals to the horn thus their blood is more arab than ours....

Dude Kingdom of Kush was the ancestors of somalis and ethiopians and sudanese......all those people know it.........the only people who dont speak cush language is amahra and tigrey they are semtic


The Cushitic-speaking peoples today comprise the Somali, Afar, Oromo and several other tribes, and were considered offspring of Cush in Masudi's Meadows of Gold from 947 AD[2] The Beja people, who also speak a Cushitic language, have specific genealogical traditions of descent from Cush.[3][4]

dude horners have always been called cush aka kush.......the only people in the horn of africa are somali/ethiopian/sudan/eritrean ..............the rest are arabs around us ......

In East Africa a slave trade was well established before the Europeans arrived on the scene. It was driven by the sultanates of the Middle East. African slaves ended up as sailors in Persia, pearl divers in the Gulf, soldiers in the Omani army and workers on the salt pans of Mesopotamia (modern Iraq). Many people were domestic slaves, working in rich households. Women were taken as sex slaves.

Arab traders began to settle among the Africans of the coast, resulting in the emergence of a people and culture known as Swahili. In the second half of the 18th century, the slave trade expanded and became more organised. There was also a huge demand for ivory, and slaves were used as porters to carry it.




looooooooooooooooooool. theirs ur proof....now shut up...lmao........dude arabs bleeeped the bantus there....and somalis owned them as slaves......arabs controlled all the way dont to tanzania....


plz reserach shid before you talk.....the only real people in east africa were the somalis and ethiopians who have been fighting each other for over a 1000 years....and somalis always were backed by arabs and turks.....so much so that arabs would past somalia and go to kenya and get slaves and bring them to somalia to ship them.....

The Kingdom of Kush or Kush was an ancient African kingdom situated on the confluences of the Blue Nile, White Nile and River Atbara in what is now the Republic of Sudan.
Established after the Bronze Age collapse and the disintegration of the New Kingdom of Egypt, it was centered at Napata in its early phase. After king Kashta ("the Kushite"wink invaded Egypt in the 8th century BC, the Kushite kings ruled as Pharaohs of the Twenty-fifth dynasty of Egypt for a century, until they were expelled by Psamtik I in 656 BC.
During Classical Antiquity, the Kushite imperial capital was at Meroe. In early Greek geography, the Meroitic kingdom was known as Ethiopia. The Kushite kingdom with its capital at Meroe persisted until the 4th century AD, when it weakened and disintegrated due to internal rebellion. The Kushite capital was subsequently captured by the Beja Dynasty, who tried to revive the empire. The Kushite capital was eventually captured and burnt to the ground by the kingdom of Axum. After the collapse of the Kushite empire several states emerged in its former territories, among them Nubia.

In Ancient Egypt, Libyan princes had taken control of the delta under Sheshonq I in 945 BCE, founding the so-called Libyan or Bubastite dynasty that would rule for some 200 years. Sheshonq also gained control of southern Egypt by placing his family members in important priestly positions. In 711 King Sheshonq made Memphis his northern Capital. [10] However, Libyan control began to erode as a rival dynasty in the delta arose in Leontopolis, and Kushites threatened from the south. Around 727 BCE the Kushite king Piye invaded Egypt, seizing control of Thebes and eventually the Delta.[11] His dynasty, the Twenty-fifth dynasty of Egypt, continued until about 653 BCE. Piye attempted to regain a foothold in the Near East, but was defeated by the Assyrian king Shalmaneser III in the 720's BC. The 25th dynasty was based at Napata, in Nubia, what is now The Sudan. Alara is universally regarded as the founder of the 25th Kushite dynasty by his successors.
The power of the 25th Dynasty reached a climax under the pharaohs Piye and Taharqa. The Nile valley empire was as large as it had been since the New Kingdom. The 25th dynasty ushered in a renaissance period for Ancient Egypt.[12] Religion, the arts, and architecture were restored to their glorious Old, Middle, and New Kingdom forms. Pharaohs, such as Taharqa, built or restored temples and monuments throughout the Nile valley, including at Memphis, Karnak, Kawa, Jebel Barkal, etc.[13] It was during the 25th dynasty that the Nile valley saw the first widespread construction of pyramids (many in modern Sudan) since the Middle Kingdom.[14][15][16]




learn your history son. Kush controlled egypt for a while before we got lost egypt, Kush is also an egytpian term, kush is what the people of somalia, ehtiopia, eritrea caleld themselves thus their langauge is today called kush collectively

We have a good idea of how the ancient Nubians looked like for they have depicted themselves in numerous wall reliefs, paintings, and scultures, as well as from the anthropological studies of fossils. Accordingly, it is certain that ancient Nubians look almost typical to the modern day people of Northern Sudan.1

Mummy of
Nubian girl.

According to the Table of Nations (part of the Biblical story of Noah) Kush was the one of the sons of Ham and the father of the Kushites or the Nubians. The modern Nubian language, which is traditionally identified as Afro-Asiatic, has been recently classified as an Eastern Sudanic language, different from Meroitic and Afro-Asiatic. The latter was used as a term of classification for the group of languages spoken by indigenous North African groups such as the Beja, Amazigh (or Berbers ), and the ancient Egyptians. Eastern Sudanic constitute a branch of Nilo-Saharan, the language family shared by populations of the Middle Nile and adjacent regions in the Sahara.

The Nubian language was originally spoken by the Nobadian (or Nubian) populations that migrated to the Nile Valley from northern areas of the Libyan desert sometime in the third century CE and intermixed with the older Kushite population.

However, genetic research indicates the modern Nubians to be an indigenous entity.2 It is widely suggested that the material culture of the modern human population that emigrated “out of Africa” during the Middle Paleolithic, had originated in Nubia.3 Many of the earliest modern human tool industries and techniques originated in Nubia including the Nubian Levallois technique for producing pointed flakes, bifacial foliates, and pedunculates.4

In any case, the Nubians are certainly indigenous of the Nile valley in Sudan and they are the direct ancestors of the vast majority of modern Sudanese people.

KidStranglehold:

Actually some Egyptians did carry some West African clades such as E1b1a and with recent studies from DNAtribes told us that the 18th dynasties mummies origins were strictly 'sub Saharan African'. Even though some Egyptians carried those WA clades, that does not make the Ancient Egyptians origins west African, but that those clades could have originated in that area. The Ancient Egyptians were diverse in looks. And it is a void statement that Southern Egyptians look like horners. Most say they don't look alike. Also not all of southern Egypt is Nubia. Nubians have a diverse look.

Also again though Ancient Egyptians origins were not WA, some carried West African clades with proof from DNAtribes study and Zahi Hawass study.



seriously...omg, this is just sad wallahi.............why is it where ever blacks go they claim people


do you know that somalis/ethiopians (cushitic ones) controleld egypt for several hundreds of years till we were expelled.

No they weren't and neither were Somalis. Yes the Egyptians were African, but neither modern day West Africans or Somalis descend from them.
