Re: Ethiopian traditional houses
Thanks Horus for playing your part in helping Ethiopians with visuals of Gurage's advanced architecture, carpentry and mind-to-hand skill with a heart full of love for comfort and assured protection of families from the elements in a long lasting structure.
Ethiopians deserve to live in better and sophisticated houses Gurage skills and know-how can build.
I wonder whether Ethiopia conducted health effecs of rural housing on and life expectancy of rural Ethiopians related to their type of houses. I know in Gurage many individuals live very long, past 90 years.

Re: Ethiopian traditional houses
Well, you picked what you wanted to pick. lets cherry pick as you have done and show you a two story hatch in Amhara and an elegant masonry in Tigray. I look forward to hear your opinion on this and deservedly need to put the following two in your roaster under the Amhara section & Tigray section. Else, the audience will judge your cheap motives.
Amhara

Tigray

Re: Ethiopian traditional houses
Sorry I missed these. They are Tigrey's not Amara's.
Tigreys lack the skill and knowledge to work with wood. Wood is a very versatile material that you can form to any shape.

Re: Ethiopian traditional houses
Dama,
No ethnic group in Ethiopia builds houses that are so superior as the Gurage. If you listen to the lady in the above video, what she calls 'gorgot' is what we call 'Gerget', 'waka' we call it waga. What you call Echba, we call it Chiban. Chiban ችባን is the central pillar and the backbone of the house. It symbolizes the father, the elder of the family. Gurage house floor is covered with 3 kinds of carpets - ቅጭቀጨ ፣ ጂበ ፣ እና አንጮት! ቅጭቀጨ ፈረንጅ እስ ፔስ ረግ የሚለው ከኮባ የሚሰራ ዝቅተኛው ነው። ጂበ ዘወትር ወለል ላይ የሚነጠፈው ምንጣፍ ሲሆን አንጮት ለክት ፣ ለበአል ፣ ለንግዳ የሚወርደው እጅግ ያማረ ፣ እንደ ተዋበ ሸማ ተለቅሞ የሚሰራ ጭቃና ጪስ የማይካው የጉራጌ ፐርዢያን ረግ ማለት ነው ።
በድፍን ኢትዮጵያ ማንም ጎሳ በለው ብሄር እንደ ጉራጌ ባላገር የሚኖር የለም ። አለ የሚል ያምጣና ያሳይ ነፍሴን አሲዛለሁ!

Re: Ethiopian traditional houses
Listro Dama, Now your intentions is clear. you are trolling.
Not for you, but for the audience i will put the following two. By the way, two stories traditional homes only exist in Amhara. If you built one with straws, bring it and lets see. You are inferior to us that is why you shine our shoes.
Amhara - in Bete Amhara

Amhara - Semien Shoa
Waiting for what your listro arse will say seeing this. you people are ignorant
Re: Ethiopian traditional houses

Of course cheating, embazzelments and lying is in the DNA of Gurage. When you lost the case, you brought a modelistic tourism built house by Prosperity Party in a hope of winning the case. Such an embarrassing moment for you.
As to meeting me in person, a Gurage coward is the last person in the planet to ask and wish that. The whole country know Listro Gurage is coward and nobody believes you and takes you seriously. But the option is open anywhere anytime. ሕይወትህ ሙሉ የበላኽውን ቅዘን ነው የማስቀዝንህ። ተቅማጣም ሊስትሮ

Just pray you will never meet me in person. Pray a lot. I respect even fistulas and fingerless q*matas. When it comes personal respect, I don't care whether you daily eat at Totot. You will go home with a broken nose, black eyes and if you are lucky with all your teeth. O don't fcken care you married my brother. I grew up wrestling and ttained boxer. In minutes, you will hit the floor.
Respect and fear Gurages for your own good.

You remember all these after living so many years outside of Gurage. Horus also listed Gurage crafted floor furnitures such as jipe and yiwedere is like dinner or lunch table.
All these handcrafts, for low IQ fistula q*matas it's beyond their imagination how we make them. They have no curosity, the eagerness and the positive jealousy to know skills and make things. All over history, they imported Europeans to train them to wage wars on neighboring ethnic groups, they did not learn democracy, they did not learn technology. No science. All because they hate work.
But, they will die for money if you give them. They drop Christanity to Judaism to live a better life in Israel. Those who are Christoan in Amara do not change to Judaism because there is no free money from it.
Lazy backward donkeys.

Re: Ethiopian traditional houses
Q*mata fingerless fistula emar Misraq, suchvhouses are common place in Gurage now. Nothing changed but only the roof is not grass any more. I know improvisation in construction methods and materials is a rocket science low IQ Amara.
