Etymology
The word Ethiopia comes from the old Greek name Aithiopia, made of aitho ('to burn') and ops ('face'), so it meant 'burnt face' and was used by the Greeks for the people south of Egypt. That's why Ethiopia became the long-standing name for the country we know today, and you may also see the older name 'Abyssinia' in history.
