Ancient Nubia?

[Nilotufian]

I know it's a Greek slur, however the point i was trying to make was that they also called us "Berbers" because they believed we have a racial connection to the Berbers. Other Sub-saharan africans were called "Aethiopians"

But why are trying force this connection so much?

 

[SOMALI GENERAL]

But why are trying force this connection so much?

Forced? The racial connection simply exists and many ancient foreigners recognised the connection between the two Afro-Asiatic cousins(Cushites & Amazighs).

Our non-African side is closer to Egyptians (Copts) than Amazighs since the later have gene flow from Southern Europe.

I remember reading about the Axum empire conquering the Kingdom of Kush and describing it's inhabitants. The Geez Hebeshas described two groups. A very dark skinned black group (Nilo Sahrans) and a red skinned group that the Hebeshas described as looking like them (Cushites.)
