Landlocked Tigrinya Nation

Just skimming through what these guys (specially Tesfatsion & Mar) I am wondering how much narrow their observatory scope of history. In region, the size of a child's palm , so much could have happened in three or four thousand years. It is more than silly to say this was Tigray or not. A simple historical event can sum it all. There has not been a name called Tigre until recently in history. If there was any, it was an Awuraja called Agame. This is another invention or manufacturing of history like Oromo/Gala people - because consider manufacturing history is the art of creating and legitimize identity. As far as the Ethiopia history is concerned, migration has been intense and the Kingdom was characterized by history of roving capital. The city of Aksum, which was the city of Amhara kingdom, later moved southwards was the magnet of political and cultural integration. The Amhara Kingdom toward the end of its move to Southern part, took or shuttled the Ark of Covenant from Tana Monastery to Axum. Just like the true Cross of Jesus that had been moving from place to place until it is placed in Gishem Mariam. In the past no body questioned what belongs to him until the TPLF tried to manufacture lies to create self identity out of inferiority complex. Sadly, the Tigre thugs are restless and source of animosity , greedy and thieves of everything. They should be told their history what their service was at the Amhara palace in the Axum Kingdom.
