HISTORY AND LANGUAGE OF THETIGRE-SPEAKING PEOPLES
As with other
regions in the Horn of Africa, nation-based traditions of
historiography and epistemologies in this area have usually
perceived the space inhabited by Tigre-speaking societies as
somewhat on the margins, on the very periphery of the dominant
historical polities in the broader area, and perhaps especially so
vis-à-vis the highland ‘Abyssinian’ polity in its various historic
configurations. While stimulating studies on areas and communities
of western and southern Ethiopia have been carried out and published
in the 1980s and since, little has been done in that respect in the
northern parts of the Horn, including the Tigre area.

About Tigre music
In Eritrea, music is an integral part of
daily life. Songs accompany the rites of passage, work and
entertainment.
They were also important in the life of the traditional Tigre
courts, and are still used for political comment, especially in
Barka.

The incident happened more than 100
years ago; but its significance, mystery and strangeness still keeps it
important. The story of a young Eritrean begins in a village called
Gheleb, 60 kms from Keren; but it is still unknown where it ends.
IN THE BOGOS' COUNTRY (By Mrs. Luisa Reinische)
In this
country there are about 30 villages and 20,000 peoples. like an
