  • Historical Survey of Limmu Genet Town from Its Foundation up to Present
    INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SCIENTIFIC & TECHNOLOGY RESEARCH VOLUME 6, ISSUE 07, JULY 2017 ISSN 2277-8616 Historical Survey Of Limmu Genet Town From Its Foundation Up To Present Dagm Alemayehu Tegegn Abstract: The process of modern urbanization in Ethiopia began to take shape since the later part of the nineteenth century. The territorial expansion of emperor Menelik (r. 1889 –1913), political stability and effective centralization and bureaucratization of government brought relative acceleration of the pace of urbanization in Ethiopia; the improvement of the system of transportation and communication are identified as factors that contributed to this new phase of urban development. Central government expansion to the south led to the appearance of garrison centers which gradually developed to small- sized urban center or Katama. The garrison were established either on already existing settlements or on fresh sites and also physically they were situated on hill tops. Consequently, Limmu Genet town was founded on the former Limmu Ennarya state‘s territory as a result of the territorial expansion of the central government and system of administration. Although the history of the town and its people trace many year back to the present, no historical study has been conducted on. Therefore the aim of this study is to explore the history of Limmu Genet town from its foundation up to present. Keywords: Limmu Ennary, Limmu Genet, Urbanization, Development ———————————————————— 1. Historical Background of the Study Area its production. The production and marketing of forest coffee spread the fame and prestige of Limmu Enarya ( The early history of Limmu Oromo Mohammeed Hassen, 1994). The name Limmu Ennarya is The history of Limmu Genet can be traced back to the rise derived from a combination of the name of the medieval of the Limmu Oromo clans, which became kingdoms or state of Ennarya and the Oromo clan name who settled in states along the Gibe river basin.

  • Genale Dawa III Dam Threatens Somalia's Water and Food Security
    Genale Dawa III Dam Threatens Somalia's Water and Food Security Luuq, Somalia February 12, 2018 Prepared By: Hussein Amiin - [email protected] Professional Water Resources Engineer with over 10 years of Experience in Hydrologic and Hydraulic Analysis and Modeling Guled Ahmed (Wiliq) MSCE in Water Resources Management, over 15 years of Professional Engineering in Water Infrastructure Development Executive Summary: Juba river is one of two perennial rivers in Somalia that accounts for majority of the country’s agricultural output. Juba river also known as Genale Dawa river in Ethiopia, originates from the Ethiopian highlands. Three tributaries in Ethiopia converge near the Somalia national boundary to form the Juba river. The three tributaries are Genale, Dawa and Gestro rivers. Approximately 70% of the basin area for the Juba river lies within Ethiopia. The Ethiopian highlands originate about 90% of the precipitation forming the Juba river in Somalia. The Ethiopian Ministry of Water Resources (MoWR) has been conducting several high level feasibility studies of the potential hydropower of the country in order to harness the energy and grow their economy. Some of those studies were completed and are currently at implementation stage while others are ongoing. The studies that the MoWR has been conducting include Genale Dawa III (GD-3), Genale Dawa V (GD-5) and Genale Dawa VI (GD-6) as cascading system. The GD-3 is currently in construction and will be completed in early 2018; while the GD-5 is still unknown whether it has been abandoned or is part of a long term vision. Two British firms were awarded the contract to design and construct GD-6 dam, the first quarter of 2017.

UP to quite recently the great collection of Birds in the Natural History Museum’ has been singularly deficient in material from the Anglo-Egyptian Sudan. This has recently been remedied by the donation of Mr. Butler of the large collection made by hini during a long residence in that country. Mr. Butler was appointed Superintendent of Game Pre- eervatiori to the Sudan Government iii 1901, and retained that post uiitil he retired in 1915. During those yearn he made good use of his opportunities of collecting birds throughout the Sudan, and the collection presented to the Museum consists of over 3100 beautifully prepared skim During his residence in the Sudau he published iu ‘ The Ibis ’ a series of four ‘‘ Contributions to the Ornithology of the Sudan ” between the years 1905 and 1909, in which he described the habits and in many cases unravelled the taxonomy of many of the species he had met with, and these papers are all referred to in the present list. We are much indebted to hiiir for help in drawing up this paper and for notes of the occurrence of several species in the Sudan not contained in the collection presented to the Museum.

    a historical overview of islam in eritrea 177 A HISTORICAL OVERVIEW OF ISLAM IN ERITREA* BY JONATHAN MIRAN Bellingham, Wash., U.S.A. The study of Islam in Eritrea—the faith of approximately half of the country’s population—is still in its infancy. Similar to other fields of scholarly inquiry regarding Eritrea, research on the his- tory of Islam in the region has become more feasible only since the early 1990s as the newly independent state became accessible to researchers, both locally-based and foreign. It is therefore pressing that new written sources and specific case studies on Eritrea’s Muslim societies and institutions see the light of day in order to add new layers to our understanding of the development of Islam in Eritrea and its role in Eritrean history.1 This survey sketches an * I would like to thank Haggai Erlich, Tricia Redeker-Hepner and Joseph Tubiana for providing comments and suggestions on earlier versions of this text. 1 The standard survey on Islam in the Ethio-Eritrean region, is J.

Corresponding author: *Ebrahim Endris, Department of Agricultural Economics, Woldia University, Woldia, Ethiopia. _____________________________________________________________________________________________ Abstract The development of vegetable subsector in Habru district faces various marketing problems to supply their produce to the market. Therefore, this study was aimed to identify the determinants of vegetables market supply in Habru district. Data for the study were collected from primary and secondary sources. Primary data were collected from a randomly selected 147 vegetable producer households. Descriptive statistics and multiple regression econometric methods were used for identifying determinants of vegetable market supply. The test for assumptions of the classical linear regression model showed endogeneity in market supply analysis and hetero skedasticity problem in tomato supply analysis. Two-stage least squares result showed that quantity produced, farming experience and extension contact significantly and positively affected the quantity
