@Idilinaa look at this shit I acquired his souther ethiopia collceted essays. But how he was able to come to this ridculous conclusion is mind boggling. How oromos who he mentioned a couple pages earlier only expanded in the post 1500s could have somehow been all over northern somalia and even more ridculous is the afar somehow being pushed out. Keep in mind that he probaly had acess to ibn battutas travelogues and the other arab historians which he quotes.
