Dʿmt
Dʿmt was an Ethio-Sabaean kingdom in present-day Eritrea and northern Tigray, with its capital probably at Yeha. Its exact dates are unknown; one hypothesis places it from the late 8th to the 6th century BC. Few inscriptions survive, and it is unclear how it relates to the later Kingdom of Aksum.
