Agawmeder
Agawmeder (Amharic: አገው ምድር) was a historical state and region in the northwestern part of Ethiopia. Its most likely etymology is from Agew (አገው ägäw), a people living in the area, plus meder (land), thus meaning "Land of the Agaw".[1] The western neighbor of Gojjam, it was located where the Agew Awi Zone now lies.
History[edit]
Not much is known about Agawmeder, as much of its existence was marked by Ethiopian isolation from the remainder of the world.[2]
