Best Answer

The kingdom of Sheba was known as Saba, and the people were known as Sabaeans. The kingdom was located in modern-day Yemen, with their capital in Ma'rib, central Yemen. Some argue that Sheba was in Abyssinia, modern-day Ethiopia, but Archaeological evidence now points to Yemen. However, the kingdom did have control over Eritrea and Northeastern Ethiopia and the geography there is very similar to the one of Yemen.
