Why don't we use the name Araweelo?

[hindhisle]

Caraweelo waa fictional character like Dhgdheer

Ishaad ka riday


Araweeli, dhagdheer, igaal shidaad etc are all fictional characters formed in somali folktales. None of them existed.

One of my favorite childhood heroes was wiil waal, i used to think he was the shit back in his days as the tales portray him smart, warrior and ladies were madly into him. I'm not gonna lie, i wanted to be just like him but i'm also aware of the reality of that is, he was, too, a fictional character. Sad

We need to revive Somali names like Caraweelo. I'm going to hit something if I see another negro calling himself Abu this and Ibn that like they're Arabs. Indonesians keep their cultural names. Look at the names of their presidents: Suharto, Sukarno etc. But Somalis give up their ancestral names to ape desert dwelling fags.

The story is famous in southern Ethiopia as well among the sidama. I believe it's a tribal folk tale that stretches from southern Ethiopia to Somalia. Don't worry though, the Ethiopian queen has nothing to do with that story or tale. At least I think

Edit: after reading the article it probably is the same figure.
