መቼም በዚህ ጉዳይ ሳትገረሙ አትቀሩም። ለምንድን ነው የትግሬ ሽፍቶች ሲሞቱ እራሳቸውን የሚቆርጡት? ያሉት ሶስት አይነት ገለጻዎች ናቸው ።

አንዱ ግምት የተሸነፈ ሽፍታ የተሸነፈው አንጎሉ ስለማይሰራ፣ አይምሮ ደካማ ስለሆነ እስከ እራሱ መቀበር አይገባውም የሚል የማሊለት የውስጥ ማዕከላዊ መርህ ሊኖር ይችላል የሚል ግምት ነው ። ይህ በሙታን ላይ የሚተገበረው ሴንትራሊዝም ሊሆን ይችላል ተብሎ ይገመታል ።

ሁለተኛው ግምት ያው ዎያኔ ኢመንፈሳዊ፣ ጸረ እግዚአብሄርና ጸረ ማሪያም ስለነበር ሰውን ከመላ አካሉ መቅበር ከክርስትና ጋር ስለሚያምታታቸው ፍጹም ኤቴይስት መሆናቸውን እስከዚያ አለም እንዲታወቅላቸው ብለው ያደረጉት ነው የሚል ህሳቤም አለ ።

ሶስተኛው ድምደማ ይበልጥ ትክክል ሊሆን ይችላል ። ታሪኩ እንዲህ ነው። በጥንታዊ የግሪክ ፋቡላ ተረት (ሚቶሎጂ) ኢትዮጵያ በሚባል ብሌህሚ የተባለ ንጉስ ሚገዛው የበጃዎች አገር የሚኖሩ ሰዎች ራስ አልባ (ሄድለስ) ነበሩ ። እነዚህ እራስ የሌላቸው ህዝቦች ራስ የሚባል ነገር አልነበራቸውም ። አይን ግን ነበራቸው ፣ አይናቸው ደረታቸው ላይ ነበር ። እነሱም አኬፌሎይ ይባሉ ነበር ። አይናቸው ትከሻቸው ላይ የሆነው ደሞ ኤፒፋጌ ይባሉ ነበር ።

ኋላ ኋላ ግ ን ይህ ሚቶሎጂ በእርግጥም ማሰብ ለማይችሉ እውቀት አልባ ለሆኑ ሰዎችና መሪነት ለሌላቸው ቡድኖችና ሽፍቶች እንደ ሜታፎር ጥቅም ላይ ይውል ጀመር ።

ዛሬ ለምን ዎያኔ ራስ አልባ እንደ ሆነ መቼም መሰረት አለው በሚል ነው

ሌሎቹ ፈረንጆች እንኳን ያላቸው ተረት ራስ አልባ ዶሮ ወይም ዘ ሄድለስ ችክን የሚል ነው ። ያ ለትግሬ ሽፍታ ይስራ አይስራ እርግጠኛ አይደለሁን ።

ሙሉ ዊኪፔዲያውን ከታች አንብቡት !

Headless men
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

One of the Blemmyes, from a map by Guillaume Le Testu

Various species of mythical headless men were rumoured, in antiquity and later, to inhabit remote parts of the world. They are variously known as akephaloi (Greek ἀκέφαλοι, "headless ones") or Blemmyes (Latin: Blemmyae; Greek: βλέμμυες) and described as lacking a head, with their facial features on their chest. These were at first described as inhabitants of ancient Libya or the Nile system (Aethiopia). Later traditions confined their habitat to a particular island in the Brisone River,[a] or shifted it to India.

Blemmyes are said to occur in two types: with eyes on the chest or with the eyes on the shoulders. Epiphagi, a variant name for the headless people of the Brisone, is sometimes used as a term referring strictly to the eyes-on-the-shoulders type

Etymology

Various etymologies had been proposed for the origins of the name "Blemmyes", and the question is considered unsettled.[1]

In antiquity, the actual tribe known as the Blemmyes were said to be named eponymously after King Blemys (Βλέμυς), according to Nonnus's 5th century epic Dionysiaca, but no lore about headlessness is attached to the people in this work.[2][3] Samuel Bochart of the 17th century derived the word Blemmyes from the Hebrew bly (בלי) "without" and moach (מוח) "brain", implying that the Blemmyes were people without brains (although not necessarily without heads).[4][5] A Greek derivation from blemma (Greek: βλέμμα) "look, glance" and muō (Greek: μύω) "close the eyes" has also been suggested.[6] Wolfgang Helck claimed a Coptic word "blind" for its etymology.[7]

Leo Reinisch [de] in 1895 proposed that it derived from bálami "desert people" in the Bedauye tongue (Beja language). Although this theory had long been neglected,[8] this etymology has come into acceptance, alongside the identification of the Beja people as true descendants of the Blemmyes of yore.[9][10][11]
In antiquity

The first indirect reference to the Blemmyes occurs in Herodotus, Histories, where he calls them the akephaloi (Greek: ἀκέφαλοι "without a head").[12] The headless akephaloi, the dog-headed cynocephali, "and the wild men and women, besides many other creatures not fabulous" dwelled in the eastern edge of ancient Libya, according to Herodotus's Libyan sources.[13]

Mela was the first to name the "Blemyae" of Africa as being headless with their face buried in their chest.[14] In a similar vein, Pliny the Elder in the Natural History reports the Blemmyae tribe of North Africa as "[having] no heads, their mouths and eyes being seated in their breasts".[15] Pliny situates the Blemmyae somewhere in Aethiopia (in, or in the neighbouring lands to Nubia).[15][16][17] Modern commentators on Pliny have suggested the notion of headlessness among Blemmyes may be due to their combat tactic of keeping their heads pressed close to the chest, while half-squatting with one knee to the ground.[c][5][18] Solinus adds they are believed to be born with their head part dismembered, their mouth and eyes deposited on the breast.[19]

The term acephalous (akephaloi) was applied to people without heads whose facial parts such as eyes and mouth have relocated to other parts of the body, and the Blemmyes as described by Pliny or Solinus conform with this appellation.[20]

In the Chinese classic text Classic of Mountains and Seas, the god Xingtian is described as having no head, and with his [ deleted ] as eyes and his belly [deleted] as a mouth. This is because he got decapitated in a battle against Huangdi.
