PLZZZ THIS IS DUE IN 5 MINUTES AND I AM CRYING BC I DONT KNOW THIS How did the geography of Axum affect its culture? Axum's location on a high plateau led to cultural isolation. Axum's location near Egypt led to a mostly polytheistic culture in which many deities can be traced back to the Egyptian religion. Axum's location along trade routes led to people of many different ethnicities and religions settling in the area. Axum's location near Arabia led to a culture in which the majority of the population was Muslim.
