Theory: Axum was Cushite

[Galmudug]

A theory has been put out that the Axumite empire was actually Cushitic, and descended from the empire of Kush.

* The most famous emperor of Axum, Ezana, supposedly conquered Kush's capital Meroe. However, on his victory stele he does not mention conquering Meroe but rather defending it against the Nubians. He does however list the Gaze (or Ge'ez) and Agaw (Cushites) as people he conquered.

* Early Ge'ez rulers (Not cushites) had their capital on the coast at Adulis, and do not show up in Axumite king lists.

* The last Emperor of Axum, when he was deposed, fled to the area of the country that remained loyal to Axum. He did not flee north into Tigray however but SOUTH, to Shoa, AWAY from Ge'ez people.

* The founder of Axum. Makeda however is a real person, Kandake Makeda Nicaule, who is firmly placed in the royal genealogies of the Empire of Kush at Napata and later Meroe.

Therefore can anyone see and understand that the Abyssinian's (Originally from sudan, who are a mix of bushmen,nilotid and arabid peoples) have literally stolen almost everything from the Cushites, even their history.

The Agaw are descended from Agaua (in ancient Kushite his name is pronounced Awawa) who was the son and viceroy of the Pharaoh Akhenaten, who many authors also believe was Moses, something the Agaw themselves believe as well as they list Moses as their ancestor, who moved south to the Ethiopian highlands after Pharaoh Seti I defeated Agaua's descendant Amenemopet.

Typical ethnic Agaw (however they have now actually become extinct)




The Agaw therefore became rulers by virtue of their descent from Moses after the Axumite kings were deposed (for converting to Islam). I believe that the "second Solomonic dynasty" or the Ge'ez dynasty was something of a fib (though who knows, they probably claimed descent through some female or distant branch lineage)

Akhenaten had many wives and concubines and children, as did every Pharaoh (Rameses II had several hundred wives and thousands of children).
Kiya for instance was from Kush, and Akhenaten spent most of his adulthood in Kush, as he was his father's viceroy there until he took the throne.

It is not conclusively proven that Tutankhamun was even the son of Akhenaten
