There are many theories. I have read that Gadabursi merely means expansion of land. It kind of makes sense since it is a bit of a confederacy after all
. I thought I was the only one left.

DjibSomali is a closest Homosexual he just doesnt want to come out of the closet perhaps Abdi Johnson can help with that lol
He begs to be Djiboutian at the same time claims Somaali identity crisis gender Crisis. Sidu u jooga bu booda nin baan wasayaayey lool
Gadaa is the Oromo legal cultural system, what if Gadaa came from Somali and not Oromo, there are so many theories on this.

Re: Where Does The Name "GadaBuursi" Come From ?
You could ask the same question about Mareexaan, Majeerteen, Madaluug, etc... Some of the names (like Cabdalla and Ciise) are straightforward, but I'd love to know the meanings of these ancient Somali names.

How is the Suldhan doing
Please care to say more about the many theories on Gada? Or is that just a sentence u wrote for sake of rhethorics?
Please be advised that the suldhan will be very much disappointed!
He oftentimes used to say that his gacanyare says watever comes to his mind

Re: Where Does The Name "GadaBuursi" Come From ?
Abba bareento there are Somali historians who believe the Oromo clans came from Somali clans or from some Somali clans and that Gadaa System is offshoot of the Somali xeer the Sultan is very well, have u found my Clan who live in Oromia in Wollo. There are Somalis who believe that Gadaa was buursid from Them And Oromo took it from them and thats where the name came from.

Gadabuursi a Somali clan-nickname. The name Gaada Biirsay means the one who collected the army or "chests" the name referred to the desperate effort of imam Samaroon Said to collect and muster the power of his kinsman against the infidels. Gaado means chest( shafka ama xabadka gaada ha i saarin oo kale).
