Beth Abraham

Beth Abraham is the community that lived dispersed in many region of Ethiopia. Originally the Beth Abraham might come from the northern part of Ethiopia, namely from Gondar and Gojam border which is near Tana. Historically, because of the difficult time and persecution these people encountered by other religion followers and wandered from place to place to protect themselves from attacks. There was also the possibility these people had been scattered and expanded to many areas near Gonder in every direction.

For that reason there is huge assumption that most of the time these people have entered in to mountainous terrain to hide themselves from attack. In Ethiopia, for many centuries these people never got a chance to live in peace with having their real identity exposed. Most of these people are having their own unique culture and religion. Still that trace never lost. Today the place called Kechene shows that sign. That hated part of region in Addi's Ababa yet with most skilled and smart people remained to be the poorest region in the city with having its own merit. Dwellers among them hate them for their identity but never shun their skill of handcraft and their trading habit that made them prosperous for that still among them lived other people.
