How south did the Cushites go?

[Xabeshi]

We've found the Savannah Pastoralists in Kenya and Tanzania and the Tutsis of Rwanda and Burundi are believed to be of Cushitic descent but is that the southernmost we've ever ventured?
Is there any evidence of a Cushitic presence in Southern or Central Africa?

All the way to Southern Africa. There was a new study on Southern African hunter-gatherers and if I am not wrong, there was evidence that small bands of Southern Cushites, that they claimed looked genetically like ones from Tanzania, had ventured there and mixed with Southern African hunter-gatherers. We also have a study showing a three-way mixed person who had Bantu, Southern African HG, and Cushitic ancestry. They found that the Cushitic and SA HG ancestry mixed before the Bantu mixture.

I'm not sure if there was anything in central Africa though. It's too foresty for pastoralism, too.

Do you think that had Somalis abandoned Tribal Affiliation in like the 4-5th Century and instead operated solely on Somali Uniformity that they'd be able to take (Somalia, Somali Galbeed, a Chunk of Oromia, Afar Region, Djibouti, Southern Red Sea Region-Debubawi Käyh Bahri, All of Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Burundi, Rwanda, Northern Mozambique Madagascar, Comoros, Zanzibar, Seychelles, Mauritius, Mayotte, Reunion) and make it all being Somali-owned and Somali-spoken or unrealistic?

That is a big question, not going to lie. Don't you have anything smaller and cuter?
