Somali Egyptian-Puntite History :
"Encyclopædia Britannica describes Punt as follows: “in ancient Egyptian and Greek geography, the southern coast of the Red Sea and adjacent coasts of the Gulf of Aden, corresponding to modern coastal Eritrea, Somalia and Djibouti ."/ In “The Making of Egypt” (1939). Petrie states that the Land of Punt was “sacred to the Egyptians as the source of their race.”
« Again the representations of the early Puntites, or Somali people, on the Egyptian monuments, show striking resemblances to the Egyptians themselves. » By Brian Brown New York: Brentano's[1923]/ We can understand theses Similarities through their ancestral history :
According to the historian Richard Pankhurst :"The Egyptians sometimes called Punt land Ta-Netjeru, meaning "Land of the Gods," and considered it their place of origin ." (Richard Pankhurst, The Ethiopian Borderlands:1997)
Map of the Antiquity , Ancient World .
"In addition to the erection and endowments of many temples listed in the Palermo Stone, the Pharaohs of the Fifth Dynasty were active, as the King Sahure (2458-2446 B.C.) from this Egyptian Old Kingdom, Dynasty V (2498-2491 B.C.). Egyptian ships also reached the shores of the land of Punt on the Somali coast to procure highly valued cargoes of myrrh, ebony and animals, among other goods. " Text Reference: The UNESCO General History of Africa:
Ancient Civilization of Africa, Vol, II, General History of Africa, G. Mokhtar, 1990, p 64-68
The greek historian Diodorus of Sicily in his book "Universal history "said that in 6th century before-J-Christ , because of the euro-asiatics invasions in Egypt , more than 200 thousands of Ancient-egyptians migrated in the south of the Nile in the direction of Ethiopia ,East Africa (Now,Sudan ,Ethiopia ,Somalia ,Djibouti..) ./ This last historical fact can explain why the somali language is a survived ancient-egyptian language ,according to the british linguist :"The language of ancient Egypt belonged to the Hamitic group;today, of course, the language of
Egypt is a form of Arabic, but a descendant of the ancient Hamitic
language of Egypt, Coptic, survived until about the fifteenth
century, and is still used as the liturgical language of the Coptic
Church.Surviving Hamitic languages are spoken across a large part of North Africa and include Somali." (The english language ,A Historical Introduction," by Charles Barber .)

Even, the recent genetic research prove that the Somali DNA is exactly appropriate to the Ancient-Egyptian DNA=> Haplogroup E1b1b1a (V68) :19th century before J-Christ => Place of origin : Egypt and northern Soudan . Extract of the genetic research
More recently, Tillmar et al. (2009) typed 147 males from Somalia for 12 Y-STR loci, and observed that 77% (113/147) had typical E1b1b1a1b haplotypes. This is currently the highest frequency of E1b1b1a1b found in any single sample population. Similarly, Hassan et al. (2008) in their study observed this to be the most common of the sub-clades of E-M78 found in Sudan, especially among the Beja, Masalit and Fur. The Beja, like Somalis,Sahos,Afars and Oromos, speak an Afro-Asiatic language and live along the "corridor" from Egypt to the Horn of Africa.)

Praise to God ! The Ancient-Egyptian Hieroglyphical Writing and Symbols are still alive and kicking in 2012 A.D.“ Generally , The Somalis use the "Sumado" ,the hieroglyphic Symbols in their traditional and social way of life . As example ,here ,to the right of the picture of Osiris ,we have the Hieroglyphical Symbols of the Issas clans in East Africa . extracted from the book: "The Search for the Ugaas in the Xeer Tradition” by the Dr. Ali Moussa Iye.Chief of Intercultural Dialogue Section in Unesco .(1995-2000).The Somalis use still now culturally these hieroglyphical for the social regulation like the Ancient-egyptians pharaohs .The Issa tribe is a branch of the Somali People in the Horn of Africa .They live mainly in Djibouti , in Ethiopia,Diridhabe region and the North of Somalia ,in Zayla ,Lughaya and Awdal region . In ancient-Egyptian language "Sumado" means"write the hieroglyphs" and also in somali ,"Sumado" means "the Hieroglyphs" and you can observ these somali current hieroglyphs, to the right of the Pharaoh's Picture above .
Conclusion: Somalia is ,now, the Ancient land of Punt : Homeland of the Ancient-Egyptians . After ,the asiatics and europeans invasions in Ancient-Egypt , most of them came back and migrated to the south of the Nile , in the direction of the current Horn of Africa , Land of Punt ,Somali Peninsula .The road of frankincence and myrrh from Egypt to the Punt,"Pwenet " was not forgotten by the Ancient-Egyptians .The Somalis share also this common Ancient-Egyptian Past with their cousins in North-East Africa ,the Tutsis, the Oromos, the Afars, the Saho,the Beja, the Indigenous African Egyptians who live still now in Egypt etc...
