Ethiopians dissing Somalis and saying they have "no culture" and all sorts of crap

[Ibn Amer]

Amharas were mountain apes before the Agew civilized them.

You can hate on Amharas all you want but why make up history to do so? There is nothing true about this statement in the slightest its completely bogus

I swear 80%+ of whats said on this forum regarding non-Somali history is straight bullshit

‘habeshas' in general are the result of that frizzy-haired woman in advertisements who is always laughing with her multicultural group of friends getting abandoned on a 2500 meter high plateau for 2000 years.

Take issue with Amharas as you please but there are some inaccuracies in your post. Ge'ez is a derivative of a Southern Arabian script but it definitely wasn't produced by Himyarite Yemenis. The oldest instances of Ge'ez script in use are literally found in Eritrea. Regarding Axum, the ethnogenesis of the Amhara, Tigrayans and Tigrinya had not taken place yet. In essence, they were one group who spoke the language Ge'ez. I could delve further into how for the most part all three of those groups are genetically indistinguishable and separated by language but thats a different story. Also, if we followed your train of thought, Najashi would be Eritrean (Tigrinyan) since the Sahaba literally took refuge in Massawa

Tigrinya, Tigre and Ge'ez can all be grouped into North Ethio Semitic to the exclusion of Amharic which is South Ethio Semitic.

These 2 branches split off well before Aksum was established and South Ethio Semitic speakers may have already been south of Tigray during the time of Aksum, so Amharas were probably a peripheral people and not integral to Aksum the way the ancestors of Tigrinyas,Tigrays and Tigre were.

Also Tigrinya and Tigre may have split off during Aksum so we weren't all speaking Ge'ez during Aksum, more likely a sister language very closely related to Ge'ez and ancestral to Tigrinya and Tigre. Ge'ez was probably the language used for trade, administrative purposes, religion etc...
