My bad I had to re edit that..half of Africa was called Ethiopia back then..Ethiopia extended from Africa into Asia....they even had a Ethiopian Ocean that you call the Atlantic today..
Actually Africa was known as "Libya" as far back as the 5th century BC(and probably long before that) as noted by Herodotus.

nikka just shut the fukk up.

You're clearly just googling and typing the first dumb ass shyt you find that you think supports the bullshyt you are posting.
"Cambyses, for instance, they say, who made war upon them with a great force, both lost all his army and was himself exposed to the greatest peril;"

Cambyses was defeated when attacked ancient KUSH you dumb ass nikka so he's clearly referring to a specific area and a specific peoples. Stop faking like you know shyt when its clear you don't.

Why you jump down that nikka's throat like that? :russ:

He's partly right. The Greeks considered everything south of Egypt....Ethiopia. And everything to the west of Egypt....Libya.

Norfeast groovin…
@observe is right, Ethiopia was a much more general term it basically meant what "Black people" and "Africa" means to us today. They do allude to particulars when it comes to Ancient Ethiopia as a ruling state tho, it's considered most of Sudan and parts of modern Ethiopia while other sections of East Africa made up the land of "Put" or "Punt" also known as "God's land" by the Egyptians. The interesting thing about this is that the Egyptians said their ancestors came from the Upper Nile in Ethiopia which eerily links it to the literal cradle of humanity in scientific terms.

no one is simply going to take your word on historical information you proclaim to be facts. Post links to your sources when you're stating things like this.

thats actually a well known fact. you need to step up your knowledge. the country of Ethiopia was referred to as Abyssinia. while the rest of black Africa was called ethiopia.
