[Leeban]

It was the cultural heritage of Egypt adopted by Arabs due to Egypt's cultural domification of the world, and Indians copied it under the Mughal Muslim Empire

The Somali macawiis comes from the Yemeni one and the Yemeni one comes from the South Indian/Sri Lankan one and that one came from Indonesia and Malaysia which in turn came from Taiwan with the early Austronesian cultures.

That's Sudanis, saxiib. Our cousins but not us. By this time Horners would be firmly south of Sudan and heavily colonized the Horn. That Kushite dynasty would have been speaking Meroitic which we aren't even sure was Afro-Asiatic let alone Cushitic. Frankly, I'm banking on some form of Nilo-Saharan.

It really does look as though the Kushites and the Nubians were always Nilo-Saharan speakers and that there was no language shift.

I'll give that a read but I've seen some compelling evidence that the early Kermans were Cushites or AAs based on signs of loans and substrata in various Eastern Sudanic languages. Or that at least Nubia was mixed back then with Lower Nubia (Medjay and C-Group) being Cushites and Upper Nubia being Eastern Sudanic. There is also the later X-Group which most tie to the Blemmyes (Beja). I get the impression Nubia was always an Eastern Sudanic-Cushitic mix with more of an Eastern Sudanic slant particularly in Upper Nubia.

Ancient Bejas (Blemmyes) were very prominent in Lower Nubia and Upper Egypt, by the way. There was even apparently a Blemmye King over Luxor (Egyptian Thebes) once:

They also had their own prominent cities in Lower Nubia like Kalabsha and Faras:

If you’re referring to the colourful ones then there’s definitely cultural exchange but the traditional Somali macawis was white & this predates these coloured ones.

The traditional Somali macawis is native to our region & hasn’t been borrowed from either yemenis or hindida.Most people simply conflate the 2

I was gonna ask what a macawees was. Some Galbeed cuisine? I'm a simple Woqooyi iyo Koonfur man, I don't know these exotic Xabash influenced foods.
