==Greco-Roman period== In the Periplus of the Erythraean Sea the name Troglodytica refers to the native people in the region of Berenice Troglodytica, as "Troglodytai" or "cave dwellers". Although the name is attested by several ancient writers, the more ancient Ptolemaic inscriptions read Trogodytai, which Huntingford (1980)[6] speculated could be derived from the same root as Tuareg. It is possible that later copyists confused this name with the more common term Troglodytai.
