Ethiopian elephants Comrade 2020-12-21 (Mon) 05:25:20 No.3656

Did the ancient/medieval Ethiopians domesticate the African elephant? In many historical records, the Abyssinians/Aksumites are mentioned to use elephants for military purposes, but were these African elephants or Asian elephants? In modern-day Ethiopia, or in fact anywhere for that matter, there is no sign of domestication of the African elephant. However, African elephants have been extensively used in ancient times for military purposes, for example by the Carthaginians.

Those war elephants were probably from a now extinct western subspecies of Asian elephant, or northern subspecies of African forest elephant.

Extinct species likely… if they domesticated the species their use likely lead to the subspecies being extinct if it was relegated to that given area

No, elephants are to long lived for that to be possible, it takes 20-25 years for an elephant to grow up.
