Feb 16, 2021According to historian Paul B.henze the origin of gurages are explained by traditions of a military expedition to the south during the last years of the kingdom of axum . And according to ulrich Braukhamper, king Amde Tsion ordered Eritrean troops to be sent to mountainous regions in Gurage, which eventually became a permanent settlement . In addition to Amda Tsion's military settlement there, the permanence of Abyssinian presence in Gurage is documented during his descendants Zara Yaqob and Dawit II's reigns. Braukhamper also notes that some Amhara troops and their families likely fled areas in modern-day Gondar and Gojjam into the Gurage region during the Ethiopian-Adal War of the 1530s, since Abyssinia was drastically outgunned by the Adal troops which received supplies and arms from the Ottoman Empire. Thus, historically, Gurage peoples may be a complex mixture of Abyssinian, Harla, and other groups which migrated and settled in that region for differing reasons.
Feb 16, 2021Because people from the northern part of Ethiopia (Amhara and tigray) settled there a long time ago. Even there is place called amara in gurage because there amhara people settled there. Also in gurage language uses some tigregna and Amharic words
Feb 16, 2021I even hear dozen times tigrigna words in gurage songs.
Feb 16, 2021I read some history book they and some others are from north, forget the book.
Feb 16, 2021The ancestors of the Hararis moved across the Bab-el-Mandeb, entering the shores of Somaliland, producing a Semitic-speaking population among Cushitic and non-Afroasiatic-speaking peoples in what would become Harar.
Feb 16, 2021As I read, Gurages and Siltes are semetic and have a some decent of Tigray mnamn. But I can't say more coz I didn't read much about them. But Hararis and Argobbas are Semetic but not fully semetic. Kinda mixed of Semite and Turkish. During Adal war which is led by Ahmed Al-Ghazi (AKA Ahmed Gragn) at the time of Triangular war (Adal Muslim Kingdom- Christian Kingdom- Oromo), Adal Kingdom could take around Harar area and soon as Ahmed Giragn is killed, they ordained another Sultan and made the war with Northern Christian Kingdom. Then they killed and beheaded Atse Gelawdewos. Then while they were getting back to Harar via Shoa, they found and fought with Rabadori military of Oromo and they lose the war......the war continued....then landlocked to present tiny Harar. Through times Afran Qallos(Oromo Harerge) practised Islam and make the deal with their Emir. This is how it happened
Feb 16, 2021Because they speak Semitic language.
