My dear Eloquent Based,

I "Hope" u don't think me evil in my comment to Xplaya.

Even after 13 years in this forum Basra still yearns to sound and look like Jane Austein.

This is my history you baffoon, unlike your clan who were slaves to the British my clan were roaming free, even the gaalos were fascinated.

On the 2nd of July, 1890, Liugi and his hired guide embarked on this planned journey with one purpose in mind, meeting the Somali Marehan tribes. He writes (p.278):

“Procedetti traverse le prime terre dei Marehan lungo una serie di pianure leggermente onduleggiate, varie di arbusti spinosi e di acacia name a ventaglio, che danno a quella localita il nome di Derdere; oltre la quale lascio a sinistra i monticoli di Bhado, massa grigiastra che va man mano assottigliandosi sino a sfumare verso il pianoro di Egalej. Feci sosta ai pozzi di Bhado ove trovai una quantita di gente, la maggior parte della cabila Bah-Ogaden, una delle tante tribu Somali dei Marehan che abitano questo sito.

I dintorni di Badho sono occupati da Marehan della famiglie: Bah-Darandole, Rer Uarsama Ugaz, Ba-Eli sparsi dal Nord al NE, e dai Rer Osman e Siyad Ugaz verso Ovest

Il Sultanato dei Marehan comincia con Sultan Mohamed Daud conosciuto sotto il nome di Mahat il quale lascio quattro figli: Ahmed, Osman, Ali, Isaak. Il primo figlio Isse Ahmed Mohamed genero Jusuf Matan padre di Hussein che fu il primo Ugaz.”

Translation:

After proceeding to the land of Marehan, I came across a site full of thorny shrubs and acacia named Derdere. Beyond these plains, I took left-turn to Bhado, where the ground fades towards the plateau of Egalej. I halted at the wells of Bahdo where its home to a section of the Marehan, the Bah-Ogaden.

The surrounding of Bahdo is occupied by several sections of the Marehan: the Bah-Darandole, Rer Warsame Ugas, Eli who inhabit the North to North-East, Rer Osman and Rer Siyad Ugas to the West.

The Sultanate of Marehan started with Sultan Mohamed Daud who had four sons, Ahmed, Osman, Ali and Isaak...”


Capo Bah Ogaden, my sub sub sub sub tribe

He further describes the landscape of the Bhado area until he departed again the next morning to an area called Garad Badho. According to Luigi, it was an area anciently inhabited by the Gallas (Oromos). Their ancient tombs still marked the place and served as an indicator of their old presence. There he met the chieftain of Bah-Ogaden (pictured left), a man he described as a strong leader of a warlike tribe assuming responsibility for all his warriors. A man he eagerly wanted to add to his array collection of portraits. After much deliberation and initial reluctancy the chief himself, he finally consented and approved the drawing of the sketch portrait.

The time came to depart. After exchanging goodbyes, he set his sight on moving further inland where they arrived at a place he referred to as Lamabulscio. It was home to the Rer Abdulle Siyad section of Marehan. It was in vicinity to a place called Gubet Farah, named after the sub clan Rer Farah Siyad.

He writes (p.280):

“Pernottai a Gubbet, altrimenti conosciuto per Gubbet Farah Siyad dal nome della cabila. Fu in questa localita che incomincio il supplizio delle corse dei cavalla.”

He continued his journey and met with several local tribes. There he encountered the Fiqi Yusuf branch of Eli tribe. A tribe observantly described as a clan of wadado (religious leaders).

He writes (p.281):

“La cabile dei Rer Eli, conosciuta comunemento col nome di Rer Figi Yusuf componesi di numeroso famiglie, che vivone sparse fra le altre tribu menzionate, esercitando esclusivamente per tradizione la professione di wadad (prete).”

Translation (roughly):

“The sub clan of Eli known as Figi Yusuf is composed amongst numerous of families. They live scattered amongst the other tribes of Marehan and their main profession are wadado (religious leaders).”



A Corps of Warriors from the Rer Siyad Ugas Branch of Marehan (p.284)

He continued further where he came across an area inhabited by the Rer Ali Shirwa Ugas Sharmake. Up to 300 horse riders of the Bah Dhulbahante branch of Rer Ugas Sharmake were getting geared up for a horse-race contest with other sections of Marehan. Tribes gathered and the skilled riders demonstrated their pride by galloping their horses, watching warriors making guttural cries whilst lifting their spears as a sign of support to their fellow tribesmen. Whilst these races resembled the Arab variant of horse-racing, the only dissimilarity that struck Luigi was the treatment of the horses.

Mighty Marehan /thread - write a book about THIS x.playa !

Irhaabi Boy,

Are you missing your daily Arab doses ?? who the hell asked you for your clan "history"? ironically even those images were painted by a white-man , its just a simple expedition by a white-man with a Somali guide or a headman and if hadn't been for both of these tow you or your mentor Warsame101 wouldn't be able to post it in somalinet forum a century later.

And by the way that is not history, we can find the same about every African tribe where a "discoverer" wrote few lines and took few images. So Irhaabi boy you better take your clan post to the clan section. This thread is about men who were civilized and wore cloths and saw the world in late 19 century not about greasy clan chief on a dwarf pony.

If you have a short bio of a man from the late 19 century or before who accomplished something as an individual by all means bring it, no body wants to see a paint and few lines about your clan been robbers and cut throats , that thread belongs to the savage section along the naked Zulu and the cannibals.

[grandpakhalif]

I guess being a good like shaqaalo for Mr. Briton is what you considered civilized.. carry on ya kaafir.

[Navy9]

this is the third time in a week netters are throwing names new to my eyes/ears, good. Will read this later, thanks for the introduction.

[X.Playa]

iraahbi boy,

Do you think you are going to impress me with copy and paste ? or by a post from Warsame101 a man who is trying to make a history for his minor clan?? the condition and the purpose of this thread is clear, now take your clan "heroes" and papa-Afweynism somewhere else i could bulldoze you and 200 if your ilk , but there is a time and a thread for such things and when it comes i don't see you Iraahbi boy. You usually shit and run with a couple comments. If you had history or knowledge or any of you or the Kacaan boys would have debated me in my Dervish thread , instead some of you even quite somalinet, Udun and Babaygirl, while the rest in particular your Afweyne clan stambeded away like a guinea fowl.

[grandpakhalif]

kkkkkkkkkkk, very civilized indeed.

[X.Playa]

whats wrong with that?? its Zaylac 1896 , Lord Rod Ronnel envoy to Ethiopia, and people In Zaylac and all shallow water ports in the entire world were doing that, it was a job from Aden to Zanzibar. I bet you have seen this image in one of your Papa-Afweyne sites and thought what a shame? Jaahil Iraahbi boy this method of carrying away passengers from a ship to the shore was a job and these crews were paid for , it was done in Boosaaso and Moqadisho. Now if you need more education keep coming by the time am done with you your entire Kacaan-faked-brain will be remade.

[grandpakhalif]

I'm done. threadkan kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

go do your home work before you embaress yourself, next time before you drool left and right make sure at least of the authenticity of the information you are using , now that you are embaressed and caught and humilated what good does a source do you?

British Somaliland by Drake Brockmen , in the case of Zaylac,

Somali Text by Maria van Tilling in the case of Moqdisho.

Now go get along boy and make sure you read and educate yourself before you shoot yourself in the foot.
