They are carrying frankincense. The land of frankincense was Horn of Africa especially the Somali penunsila. I was looking at their clothing. Do the people of the horn still wear that?

We literally know nothing of this mysterious place outside these hieroglyphics, and I doubt we are the descendants of those people.

I'm not saying we are descendants we Somalis necessarily , but they did originate from Horn of Africa or East Africa. So I was wondering is their a people that wore the same cloth?

@geeljire madaxweyne btw akhi I love focusing on history in general so theres nothing wrong with researching AE and if some think I'm trying to claim their history they can suck mi nuts.

As long as your rocking a muscular physique no homo anything would fit even this sort of macaawis. Which I would rock, but if there is traditional clothes I'd like to rock it's traditional Arab clothes like our forefathers. Waxaanu nahay Carab.

I would wear modern clothes in any setting. I don't own a macaawis.

Looks like a gigantic diaper with xaar sagging at the bottom.

I suppose the closest modern approximation is when nomads roll up their macawiis and make a sort of knot between their legs while working.
