Somalia had many sultanates like the Ajuuraan, Goobroon, Wersengeli, Adal, Majeerteen and so on.
Before that it was known as Macrobia and before that Azania.
I actually agree Somalia was never the land of Punt, neither are we Kushites. Kushites are a Nilo Saharan people that inhabited modern day Sudan.
Also Punt was found at the route of the Nile river. It had Hippos and Pygmies, how does that sound like Somalia?
It just seems to be a bandwagon of lies that everyone has decided to jump aboard without considering the evidence.
You have no idea what you saying here (highlighted).
First of all Macrobia and Azania are fictional stories. I find it funny that you dismiss the more believable history but buy into the fictional stories mostly on Wikipedia.
Equally Somali Peninsula was home to large hippo population even in the turn of the 19th century. The introduction of modern arms almost entirely wiped them out.
This is present day Jubba river in southern Somalia
If you can't see the hippos, get some glasses.
Somali Peninsula had much bigger rivers back then even in the north. Most of them dried up due to climate change and populations. Even the Shabelle and Jubba hit dry seasons these days unlike in ancient times when they flowed all year round and were much much bigger.
Punt was not on the Nile.
Go read a little don't come in here with Wikipedia.
Punt was accessed via Red Sea.
Also Nilotics are Nubians not Cushitics.
