The most accurate inference based on historical context is: **It lost influence as the Swahili city-states gained prominence.**

After 1100 CE, the Axum Empire faced competition from the rising Swahili city-states along the East African coast, which began to dominate trade in the region. This shift in trade dynamics contributed to a decline in the prominence of Axum.
