  • Vol 7, No 2, (2016): Pp(54 -73)
    Vol 7, no 2, (2016): pp(54 -73) The History and Challenges of Simen Mountains National Park: the Case of Fauna and Flora (1969—1983) Girma Tayachew Lecturer at Gondar University, Department of History and Heritage Management, 2016 Abstract: This paper explores the full history of the foundation of Simen Mountains National Park in the Simen part of Ethiopia following the discovery of Walia (Capra Walie). The study shows the struggle of the government and foreign agencies to protect walia ibe by also shedding light on the response of the local people towards the foundation of the national Park. The study critically examines the challenges and opportunities during the process in the foundation of the park. Even though Simen Mountains National Park is one of the known heritage sites in the world, what has been truly missing to date is the study of its amazing history. The existence of more than 30,000 people in the premise of the park is another core problem. The study draws on hitherto untapped files from the archives of North Gondar Zone Administration Office as well as on interviews with historical actors. In addition, attempts have been made to gather qualitative data that are both published and unpublished documents. In 1963 a UNESCO-funded mission discovered walia ibex as one of the endemic animals in Ethiopia. It provided the corner stone for the emergence of the Park. The Simen Mountain National Park was officially established in 1969 on the recommendation of a UNESCO mission in 1963 to save the endemic animals. In 1978 it was registered as a world heritage site.

  • There Are Plenty of Jewish Roots in Africa I
    There are plenty of Jewish Roots in Africa I A few webs that consider the Igbos & other Africans & Blacks as Israelites: http://raybash.blogspot.com, http://www.hebrewigbo.com, http://www.abrahamsdescendants.com, http://www.africaresource.com, http://www.igbohebrew.com, http://www.blackjews.org/ http://www.yahspeople.com Although there was much sympathy in Europe and elsewhere, only five countries (Tanzania, Gabon, Côte d'Ivoire, Zambia and Haiti) officially recognised the new republic. These are important west African cities that had Jewish influence: aGaDez (GaD), KaNo (CaNaan) ibaDaN (DaN)...not to talk about the Senegalese JuDdala which is clearly related to JuDah. There are many African ethnic groups with interesting pre-Christian beliefs, many of them being monotheistic. Some have pre-Christian beliefs in a great flood like Noah's. The Baoule are aKaN (CaNaan) & believe in one god called Nyamien, similar to Yaweh as several scholars pointe before. The name Akan might come from Canaan, their land of origin. It's considered that Igboland had a very ancient civilization. Ebri is an Ibo or neighborly tribe's last name strikingly similar to Ibri, Hebrew in Hebrew. Abiriba, an Igbo village, might have the same root. The Balanta Council of Elders takes all important decisions. That the Balanta have a Council of Elders (including the importance given to this council) & that they have "sacred woods" resemble the ancient Israelites. The KaDaru are 10000 thousand people. Are they GaDites? The Ivorian department of Rubino may have taken its name from the tribe of Reuben. Other interesting toponyms are Lakota, like the Amerindian land in the USA & SiKensi, that bears the consonants of iSaaC.

  • Determinants of Household Saving in Ethiopia: a Case of North Gondar Zone, Amhara Regional State
    International Journal of Development and Economic Sustainability Vol.2, No.4, pp.37-49, October 2014 Published by European Centre for Research Training and Development UK (www.eajournals.org) DETERMINANTS OF HOUSEHOLD SAVING IN ETHIOPIA: A CASE OF NORTH GONDAR ZONE, AMHARA REGIONAL STATE Tsega Hagos Mirach1* and Yemane Michael Hailu2 1Lecturer in Economics, School of Economics, College of Business and Economics, University of Gondar, Gondar, Ethiopia 2 PhD Candidate at Addis Ababa University, College of Business and Economics, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia *Corresponding author: Email: - [email protected]; Tele. +251-911090010 P.O.Box: 1369, Gondar, Ethiopia ABSTRACT: Development economics have for several decades recognized the importance of the mobilization of domestic savings for economic growth in developing countries. However, saving level in Ethiopia is very low and little is known empirically about its patterns and determinants. Therefore, this study attempts to identify and analyze the main determinants of household saving in Ethiopia giving special emphasis to North Gondar zone on three selected districts i.e. Gondar, Dembia and Dabat using survey data collected from 604 sample households in August 2013. The results of the descriptive analyses shows that 54.1% of sample households practiced saving and the common reasons for households not to save are low income, inflation, low interest rate, cultural background, education, social affairs and unemployment. The planning and expenditure controlling habit of most respondents was also found minimal. Besides, the economic analyses shows that income, age, sex, marital status, forms of institutions used for saving and frequency of getting money are significant determinants of household savings in the study area.
