Sapaei

The Sapaei (also rendered as Sape, Saba, or Sembritae) were an ancient people mentioned in several Greco-Roman sources, situated in the region surrounding the island of Meroë in what is now central Sudan. While their precise identity remains uncertain, classical writers generally place them in the Nile Valley south of Egypt, within or near the Meroitic sphere, and sometimes associate them with Egyptian exiles or local hunting communities.
