Ancient Axum, located in present-day Ethiopia, experienced a predominantly tropical climate, characterized by distinct wet and dry seasons. The region benefited from seasonal monsoons, which brought rainfall, particularly between June and September, supporting agriculture and trade. Temperatures varied, typically being warm during the day and cooler at night, conducive for the growth of crops like millet, barley, and teff. This climate played a crucial role in the development and prosperity of the Axumite Empire.
