According to Old Eritrean Folklore and After reading Arabic sources Including "The old tribes of Yemen" Book, Somali's Lived in the arabian Peninsula Before Moving to the Horn. They are descandents of Kush Third Son "Havilah" Through "Dirr", I would presume Dir Is the oldest Qabil Is that correct??
If so that would make Somali's the older Cousins of Eritreans who are descandents of Kush fourth Son Sabta and fifth Son Sabteca. Somali's Lived on the west coast of saudia arabia and have an ancient town named after their ancestor "Havilah", They southern and northern Nighbours qabil were today's eritreans (Beja and Saho). They were historically from Iraq forming the indo Kushtic Groups In mesoptomia.
Over the years The "dir" moved to the horn and the northern Beja Moved to Egypt and east Sudan Through Egypt (Ababda,Bisharin,hendondwa,amrar) while the southern Beja Moved to Eritrea through yemen (Bani amer,habab,belew kelew,halenga etc.) The dir Moved through yemen to Eritrea then moved south and inwards. the only argument is the afars some sources say they are sons of sabta while other say they are sons of havilah, maybe mixed between Both descandents.


oh oh forgot to say they mention how sons of havilah were very good traders and sons of Sabta were Good in organising and settling dispute while sons of Sabteca were just warriors. It also says that ancient Somali's,Eritreans were called Belad el Eryth "land of the red sea people" because both occupied both sides of the sea at one stage.
