Colonies retain heritages of their colonizers longer than their colonizers

Geez that originated from the Sabean Masnad survives in northern Ethiopia 1400 years after Yemen adopted Arabic scripts.

lier!
With ancient Yemen stamped all over your face, on your tongue, on your dance, looking out to the Red Sea, rather shamelessly, you deny you were once a colony of Yemen.

No one ruled Axum/ Ethiopia but Axumites ruled Yemen and the Church Abraham built still exists in their capital city. If you have any evidence otherwise bring it. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source= ... A-gzDZMSNP

Sabean scripts and inscriptions are also found in North Ethiopia and it is an indication that there were cultural, religious and trade exchanges between the two regions. In the fourth century Geez, Sabean and Greece were used in Axum as it is evidenced in the Ezana inscriptions . With regard to colonization it was Axum that was ruling the Arabs and if you have any evidence otherwise bring it.

Extent of sabean Power

"Apart from the territory of modern Yemen, the kingdoms extended into Oman, as far as the north Arabian oasis of Lihyan (also called Dedan), to Eritrea, and even along coastal East Africa to what is now Tanzania."
===

"Between the 8th and 4th centuries the state of Da'amot emerged, under Sabaean influence in Ethiopia, which survived until the beginning of the Christian era"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancient_history_of_Yemen

Ancient Yemen as a civilization and South Arabia power estimated existence begins between 12th BCE to 8th BCE. Axum as a complaining or resistance power to Christian persecution only begins in the early 3rd century. And 300 years later in the 6th century, financed and equipped by Byzantium because the new King of Himyar adopted Jewishism as a state religion and persecuted Christians.

Ascari boy,

The only relevant part of your reference to your claim reads as" Between the 8th and 4th centuries the state of Da'amot emerged, under Sabaean influence in Ethiopia, which survived until the beginning of the Christian era at the latest. The exact chronology of Da'amot and to what extent it was politically independent of Saba' remains in any case uncertain." However this does not prove your case , while your reference repeatedly proves beyond doubt Yemen & part of the present day Saudi Arabia was colonized by the brave Axumites. You could refer to Ezana 's inscriptions for further information. The presence of Sabean inscriptions in the present day Tigray and Eritrea is most probably related to trade and religious interactions rather than colonization. But it was clear that the Axumites colonized Yemen prior to the Christianization of Axum. Dig more but you will not get any evidence that proves Yemen ruled the pre-Axumties or the Axumites.
