2. Backgro<strong>un</strong>d history and geographical situation<br />
Muslims, they gave the name of Arba Ambiya, Arba meaning 40, Ambiya meaning blessed and<br />
prophet. The name <strong>Awra</strong> <strong>Amba</strong> has been given by the present <strong>Awra</strong> <strong>Amba</strong> comm<strong>un</strong>ity. However,<br />
Zumra seems build a myth aro<strong>un</strong>d the name of <strong>Awra</strong> <strong>Amba</strong>, by explaining it was the original name<br />
linked to the presence of an animal, and, contradictory, it was the name given by visitors and then<br />
used by the comm<strong>un</strong>ity.<br />
<strong>Awra</strong> <strong>Amba</strong> is sometimes written <strong>Awra</strong>mba or Awura <strong>Amba</strong>. The comm<strong>un</strong>ity can be contacted by<br />
phone (+251 (0)58 231 0108), and the cooperative by post (<strong>Awra</strong> <strong>Amba</strong> association, PO Box 36,<br />
