III, ch. 2, was the first scholar, if I am not mistaken, to attack in vigorous terms the fact that Aethiopum nonnulli (Reginam Candacem) pro sua agnoscunt.

^{page 56 note 3} The confusion is not confined to the narratives, but also applies to the names. Candace is almost certainly the Meroitic Katake (cf. Budge, History of Ethiopia, I, p. 112), while the Syriac form is , and the Ethiopic forms . (Budge, Life and Exploits of Alexander, I, p. 106, line 19) as well as and . The name of the Queen of Sheba in the Ethiopian tradition is , or . This name has hitherto defied all attempts at an explanation (see Conti Rossini, Storia, p. 254), but I do not consider, it impossible that Makeda is, in fact, a corruption of Candace (Kandake). One must not try to discover any phonetic reasons behind this corruption. If my conjecture is correct, then we have in the mixture of the names a complete parallel to the conflation of the stories. The fact that the name Hendake continues to co-exist does not invalidate this assumption, as we possess respectable parallels for the co-existence of original and corrupt forms.

The popular etymology, adduced by the Kebra Nagast (chapter 91), explaining Makeda as derived from must, of course, be rejected.

^{page 57 note 3} May it be that the parable of the two foundations, Matt. vii. 247, Luke vi. 479, are to be consciously related to this Old Testament theme?
