Abstract

Abstract Studies on Urbanization in Ethiopia had good beginning since 1960s to 1970s. Yet the experience of urban historiography did not sustain. This was because the existing studies focus on urban geography, population and political aspects. Thus the aim of this thesis, basing on qualitative analysis of oral traditions, written sources and archives is to present the historical developments of the town. Lack of archives due to discord over changes of regimes and shortage funds, reluctance of few informants were problems that the researcher experienced in an attempt to come up with this work.
