Considering that a lot of their ancestors only recently migrated to east Africa, it’s likely true that cushites used to be the majority. Some of the biggest ethnic groups in Ethiopia migrated to east Africa in the 14th century meanwhile there is evidence of cushites living in Kenya 2000 years ago.

so basically it’s likely Cushites were there first, before hordes of migrating Bantu speaking groups arrived in east Africa.
