Légende

The Abyssinian Expedition: village under the Antalo Amba, 1868. View of '...the scenery in the neighbourhood of Adowa, with the "Amba" or hill-fort, and a village at the foot of the cliff; the houses being mere mud huts, of a round shape, with thatched conical roofs - not unlike those inhabited by the ancient Britons when Julius Caesar invaded this island [ie Britain]'. From "Illustrated London News", 1868.
