Aksumite conquest of Kush
The Aksumite conquest of Kush was the campaign led by the Aksumite king Ezana around 350 CE against the Kingdom of Kush and its centre at Meroë. Ezana recorded the expedition in an inscription. It showed Aksum's military reach into the Nile valley and coincided with the final decline of Kush.
