Kushite Royalty

"Kandake, kadake or kentake . . ., often Latinized as Candace (Ancient Greek: Κανδάκη), was the Meroitic term for the sister of the king of Kush who, due to the matrilineal succession, would bear the next heir, making her a queen mother. She had her own court, probably acted as a landholder and held a prominent secular role as regent." [Wikipedia] Read More
