Answer: Aksum was also well known to the Greeks and the Romans, and later to the Byzantines, the Arabs, and the Persians. For most of the 3rd and 4th centuries CE, it was Rome's biggest trading partner to the West.
Explanation:
Aksum developed a civilization and empire whose influence, at its height in the 4th and 5th centuries C.E., extended throughout the regions lying south of the Roman Empire, from the fringes of the Sahara in the west, across the Red Sea to the inner Arabian desert in the east. The Aksumites developed Africa’s only indigenous written script, Ge’ez. They traded with Egypt, the eastern Mediterranean and Arabia.
