galbeedi Posted June 14, 2017 Adal lasted until the 16th century after the defeat of Imam Ahmed Gurey. In early 17th century, exactly 1603, the first Ugaas of Awdal was crowned. Ibaro is probably the "Duriyada". Jaberti shows the original homeland of the :D" block. It seems the tiny Somali territory in the Benadir coast conquered and displaced the large Oromo land. I wonder what happen to the Gabooye empire and territory. As the twenty century begun, they are scattered all over the place. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Holac Posted June 17, 2017 I like Aromata, Cape of Spices and the Gulf of Avalites (Awdalites). These are great names that should be revived. I wonder if APONE is how Hobyo name came into existence. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
