Amazing work, man. I think somalias current state sometimes makes it hard to remember that we have often been much better state capacity.
Letter of Tansar - 3rd century Persian Text Mentioning Somalis

Funny enough early trade from the horn and southern Arabi was to coast regions of India, during Gash Group.
A further final aspect should be emphasized as a possible consequence of the potentially crucial role played by food in the interactions that took place along the Red Sea-Punt network, both as a commodity and as an element of the rituals associated with trade. Indeed, it should be remarked that along with food, crops may even have been exchanged, as is shown by the spread of African crops from the Sahel to the Indian Ocean via the Red Sea, such as the case of sorghum, whose domestication process is likely to have largely taken place in Eastern Sudan.155 In the meantime, following the same network, crops originating in Eastern Asia may have found their way to Africa.

No, Persians knew the difference between Axumites and Somali Berbers as they were familiar through trade and other such things. It’s not talking about Kaleb’s invasion as this is a different period.

Are the Aksumites mentioned separately?

They aren’t mentioned at all in the Shahnameh but they knew them as the Abyssinians/Habeshi
I thought the Shahnameh was semi mythical i.e more of a story than a historical account
