Of course. These discoveries arent theological or anything to do with the diin rather they are dhaqan ahaan like where a custom may have originated from. Beyond what is transmitted as common knowledge in the present day everything else will always be speculative since we dont have the power to raise the dead and question their practicesI just want to say that to me archaeological inference to me is just speculative reconstruction and heavily uses imagination
My true beliefs and ultimate allegiance are firmly rooted in the Qur'an and the Sunnah, which I regard as the most authentic and divinely guided sources of truth. While I acknowledge that genetic analysis and historical reconstruction may offer intriguing perspectives or raise interesting questions, I view these methods as speculative and limited by human interpretation, assumptions, and the ever-changing nature of scientific and historical inquiry. To me, such approaches do not carry the same weight or certainty as the revealed knowledge found in the Quran and sunnah

Could these be early examples of Cushitic peoples writing?
This all of course accords well with the Cushitic substratum in MSA languages which are later present in the region, suggesting an absorption of Cushitic speakers.
