Herkunft
Leuchtende Farben und einfache, geometische Muster – dafür werden Kelims auf der ganzen Welt geliebt. Kelims (auch Kilim, Qilim) wurden traditionell nur für den Eigengebrauch hergestellt. Nomaden und Bauern benutzten und benutzen ihre Kelims als Teppiche auf dem Boden, aber auch als Zelt- oder Wandbehänge, Decken, Kissen oder Taschen. Weil Kelims im Alltag ständige Begleiter waren, tragen die Muster – mögen sie auch naiv wirken – immer eine persönliche Botschaft und haben eine Bedeutung für die Weber und ihre Familien.In Europa sind insbesondere Kelims aus der Türkei, dem Kaukasusgebiet, dem Iran, Afghanistan und dem turkmenischen Kulturraum bekannt und beliebt. Tatsächlich werden in allen Ländern in denen Teppiche geknüpft werden auch Teppiche handgewebt.
Material
Kelims werden handgewebt und bestehen nur aus Kett- und Schuss-Fäden, haben also keinen dicken, nach oben ausgerichteten Flor. Kelims haben auf beiden Seiten das gleiche Muster und sind daher beidseitig nutzbar. Die Musterung entsteht durch die farbigen Schussfäden, die in die Kettfäden gewebt werden. Für jede neue Farbe muss in jeder Reihe ein neuer Faden benutzt werden. Die Fadenenden werden mit eingearbeitet.Die Schuss-Fäden dieses Kelim Teppichs bestehen aus handgesponnener, mit Pflanzenfarben gefärbter Schafwolle. Vor dem Weben des Teppichs wurden dafür zunächst Schafe geschoren und die Wolle anschließend gereinigt, gekämmt und schließlich gesponnen. Nach dem Spinnen wird die Wolle der Kelim Teppiche in einem aufwendigen Prozess mit Naturfarben gefärbt. Der Flor der Kelim Teppiche wirkt wegen dieses traditionellen Verfahrens trocken und leicht pelzig. Die Kett-Fäden dieses Kelims bestehen aus [Material (Kette)].

A little-mentioned history
Format: Kindle
Captivating History has released a publication that tells of the period when Italy, under the government of Mussolini, invaded Ethiopia and overthrew the government of Haile Salassee. This war was revenge for Italy's loss against Ethiopia in 1896 but weakened Italy which helped its decision to align with Hitler.
For Ethiopia, the invasion represented a major setback, as it lost its independence and became subject to Italian colonial rule until the defeat of Italy in World War II. Haile Selassie returned to Ethiopia in 1941 after the British, in alliance with Ethiopian resistance fighters, liberated the country.
The Italian invasion of Ethiopia remains a significant event in African history, highlighting the consequences of colonial aggression and the limitations of international diplomacy in preventing such conflicts. It also played a role in shaping Ethiopia's determination to regain its sovereignty and become a symbol of African resistance against colonialism.
This is a worthwhile read as it explores a little-known facet of African history.

This book is an excellent read! It provides a well-organized and concise summary of Ethiopia’s entire history, which is no small task given the country’s rich and complex past. The writing is consistent, informative, and historically accurate, making it easy to follow and deeply engaging. I especially appreciate how it also includes insights into Eritrea’s history, offering a broader understanding of the region. I highly recommend this book to anyone seeking a solid, accessible introduction to Ethiopian and Eritrean history. Captivating History did a fantastic job!

A compact history
Format: Paperback
Sometimes we want to take a historical subject that we know little about and get a brief gloss to learn enough to discover which parts of the subject we want to delve into at greater length. "History of Ethiopia" is exactly what we need to satisfy that desire.
We get the entire history of the African nation, from the very ancient days up to this very year, 2022. naturally, we do not get many nuances. What we do get is the big picture. We know how the various periods in history fit together. From the Queen of Sheba to the nasty era of the Communist Derg, we get a little bit of everything.
One irritation that I had was the coverage of the Ethiopian-Somalia war in the 1970s. The crucial role played by the Cuban army is committed entirely. On the other hand, the 1540 Portuguese expedition headed by Christopher da Gama is briefly but adequately covered. Save for the intervention of da Gama the kingdom might well have been lost.
If you need a fast introduction to Ethiopia, this is a good place to begin. Captivating History, the maker, has dozens of similar books, often on specific, narrowly focuses topics.

Ethiopia from the time when the Queen of Sheba ruled
Format: Kindle
Ethiopia has a long rich history that Captivating History managed to cover in 100 pages. This book starts out by letting us know that Ethiopia is one of the first places humans settled in. One of the first kingdoms in Ethiopia was the Kingdom of Aksum. Like most African countries, Aksum established trade routes and had the silk road running through their kingdom.
The Queen of Sheba is a controversial historical leader. Many scholars believe she was queen in Ethiopia. The bible states that a queen of the south came to Israel to meet King Solomon. Historians believe that the queen of the south was in fact the Queen of Sheba. While the queen was there her and King Solomon became very close and when the Queen of Sheba returned to Ethiopia she had King Solomon's baby. Menelik I may have been King Solomon's son. Some believe that when Menelik I when to visit his father, King Solomon, Menelik returned to Ethiopia with the Ark of the Covenant. Some believe that the ark is hidden away in some Ethiopian monastery, still today.
There is still a lot of Ethiopia's history left for you to learn about by reading this book.
