Why do yemenis look pseudo ethiopian

[CalmOne20####]

Some of them look xabashi. Did ethiopia colonise yemen ?

Aksum used to control Yemen

 

[dekiteshim]

Kingdom of Axum (Modern day Eritrea and Northern Ethiopia) invaded Yemen in the 6th Century AD on the orders of the Byzantine Empire to liberate the Orthodox Christians being oppressed by the Yemeni Himyarite Jews. They packed them and made them all convert to Orthodoxy. I assume there would have been some offspring as a result of the invasion

Well the old ethiopian axumite empire ruled the area for some time

The Map is not quite accurate. Aksum did not rule beyond Eritrea.

They did, it was they that destroyed the kingdom of Kush.

 

[SPMLegend]

Many Yemenis in the Hadhramout region and northern areas have Ethiopian DNA

The Axums controlled Yemen at some point in history

I came across this funny based video on the internet highlighting the historical event

No I’m talking about them controlling Somaliland & Djibouti. Not sudan or Egypt

No, Yemenis colonized Northern Ethiopia, that's why some Ethiopians speak Semitic languages, they adopted the tongue of their Yemeni masters.

 

[Burqad]

a yemeni tribe called Habeshat colonized Ethiopia and stole it from the native Cushitic Agews, then they conquered Yemen a thousand years later

I think this is mentioned in the quraan. They were making Christians jump into a pit f fire.

 

[Qeelbax]

Idk but if Ethiopians held Yemen, why are there so many Ethiopians slaves and not Yemenis? Pretty sure it was Aksum that controlled part of Yemen.

The story of the king and the boy derived from that time period

They are mistreated in the north by the Houthis who perceive themselves as “Pure Yemenis”. The Houthis mistreat Ethiopian migrants and southern Yemenis because of their skin darker complexion

Wallahi this makes me so angry. Ethiopians and Somalis welcome yemenis yet this is how we are treated by then. We must deport them from the Horn of Africa.

The Houthis are from Northern Yemen. The ones in Somalia are from Southern Yemen

The Houthis are from Northern Yemen. The ones in Somalia are from Southern Yemen

Which Yemenis treated us bad. The arab ones or the xabashi looking ones ?

 

[SPMLegend]

South Yemenis are much closer to us than compared to the North. There are thousands of Somalis living in Aden the capital city of South Yemen today. South yemenis also are darker in skin color and have features similar to the Horn of Africa.

South Yemenis are mixed with Ethiopians right? I read that the Axumite Kings had Yemeni concubines that's why southern yemenis look ethiopian.

South yemenis are descended of the Sabeans. The romans, the Abyssinians,the Persians and now the Arabs have all had their share of glory in conquering this desert country.
