[ethiofekade]

Ambassel is originated from ambassel(wello).btw no one can play ambassel the way merawi setot does.he was born in Ambassel

[waffiki]

Ambasel is an Aweraja located in current day Wollo. It is a very mountainous region. Geshen Mariam/Geshen Amba, where partition of the Crusifix of Eyesus Kirstos kept in one of the mountains of Ambasel. The Mountain has the shape of a Cross. Also for the past 1000 years or so, it surved as the school, prison and grooming center for the Royal families. Tesfa Eyesus, Crown name Emperor Yekuno Amelak who abolished the Zagwae Dynasty in 1270 and restore the Solmonyic dynasty was a prince of Ambasel.

[TheKebenawonze]

As a tribute to his hometown, Yekuno Amelak bestowed the title JANTIRAR to the line of arstocratic families who governed the Aweraja of Ambasel. The title JANTIRAR could even pre-date him. The late Etegae Menen was the daughter of Jantirar Asfaw of Ambasel.

thank you so much. you seem to know so much about wollo (by the way-the best land in the world). do you suggest a book that tell about some interesting places in Ethiopia & africa

[TheKebenawonze]

No problem Waffiki. If you can find it, anything by Teklesadiq mekuria, Sargew Hableselsie, Dr. Tamirat Desta and Paulos Nogno is great. Harold Marcos, Richard Pankrist have good books out there too.

[waffiki]

thank you TheKebenawonze.
