You shouldn't discredit their looks because Ethiopians are one of the most homogeneous people in the world and just because they look like an arab or an indian doesn't mean they got their looks from them, but rather it's the other way around. Ethiopians were here longer before the Arabs and Indians so if we were to discredit their looks based on what we think is the "typical african look" then I know u Ethio but come on man; yeah there has been some intermixing but which part of the world hasn't?
Who's looks am I discrediting? I'm speaking for the more modern look and Habeshas in particular since that question is often asked, as my post also said I consider Arabs to be a product of Ethiopians intermarriage with other groups so I'm not discrediting Ethiopians. There are lots of tribes in Ethiopia that don't look "African" that aren't considered Habesha the Agaws and Beta Israel are examples of that. So I'm only speaking for the common questions asked which are about Habeshas and they trace their beginning to the Axumites whom played host to a cosmopolitan society with many different groups of people so yeah in the case of Habeshas it was Cushytes that held influences and he foreign traders that lived among being assimilated into Cushyte culture that began that group.
