A troglodyte is a person of degraded, primitive, or brutal character. It was coined by the ancient Greeks to describe ancient Somalis and is still applicable to them today (as they remain brutish, well, troglodytes to this day).
The Troglodytae (Greek: Τρωγλοδύται) or Troglodyti (literally "cave goers"), were a people mentioned in various locations by many ancient Greek and Roman geographers and historians including Herodotus, Agatharcides, Strabo, Diodorus Siculus, Pliny, Tacitus, Josephus, etc... They were usually placed in the desert along the African side of the Red Sea coast, from Berenice Troglodytica southward as far as Somalia.

Now Somalian nationalists are embracing their troglodyte identity (lol) because, well, they have nothing else going for them as they are a failed state unable to cope with even the most barbaric and primitive aspects of Islamic culture;

So next time you think about how primitive Somalis are remember we already have a word for them; troglodyte. Seldom has a word been so fitting over the ages.
