The Kush Empire was one of the most effectual civilizations that was created in the southern region of Ancient Egypt in the first millennium BCE. Kush was a title applied to the rulers of the kingdom called Nubia. With respect to the studies conducted on the Nubian Empire, the present article addresses this hypothesis that the story of the battles of the Kush-e peel-dandān in the West is a remnant of the memory of the Kush kings, echoed in the Kushnāmeh. The indications supporting this hypothesis are as follows: likeness of the name of the hero in the Kushnāmeh and the title of the Kushian kings; the mention of Nubia in the Kushnāmeh and the existence of the Kushian Empire in the ancient Nubia; the significance of camel (feel) in the Kushian Empire and Kush being with camel’s teeth, and so on. Through a comparative study of the contents of the Kushnāmeh and the political and cultural setup of the Kushian Empire, some other issues are dealt with, including the hypotheses as to the Mazandaran’s deevs (devils), the snakes grown on Zahhak’s shoulders, the connection of the hero of the Kushnāmeh with Kush b. Hām, b. Nooh, and the preferred pronunciation of “Kush” over “Gush”.
