Talk about stubborn on both sides! Cush is also Kush. For crying out loud, look at where the Cushites in Ethiopia are today.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cushi
"Cush or
Kush (כּוּשׁ
Kūš) is the name of an ancient ethnic group who came from the land of
Cush, centered on the Upper Nile and Nubia (modern-day Sudan). Mentioned in the
Hebrew Bible, they are considered descendants of
Noah's grandson,
Cush the son of
Ham.
According to Ethiopian historians, the Kushite Empire also controlled the mountainous regions around the source of the
Blue Nile at first, and the
Cushitic and
Agaw peoples of Ethiopia (including the
Bete Israel or Ethiopian Jews, who have largely migrated to Israel) still maintain traditions of descent from Cush."
