Myci

Background

The fourteenth Persian province; a tribe probably in the south of Persia; Maka, satrapy of the ancient Achaemenid empire, modern Oman. The name Maka for what is now called Oman is very ancient; in the third millennium, the Akkadians already knew a country called Magan, which, they claimed, had been conquered by their king Naram-Sin (2254-2218; ABC 20). Later, it was called Qade by the Babylonians; the Assyrian king Aššurbanipal (668-631 BCE) mentions a country Pade with a capital Iski, which must be Izki in Oman. The Persian name Maka is, therefore, an archaism (which is not uncommon in this period).
