Young Sadaam, and People who love Somali History and Culture

Post by Cilmiile »

Sadaam requested that I direct him to Somali cultural and historical resources. Sadaam is in North America and I wanted to direct him to Indiana University at Bloomington. I was trying to retrieve the website so he can go there and do research in Bloomington. But lo and behold, they have digitized some of their archives.

Very interesting. I have already finished in the last couple of hours the book on Qamaan Bulxan and Wiilwaal.

Very interesting reading, the Qamaan book. We wont be hearing the Ogaadeens tell us that they were Mujaahid darwiishes anymore I suspect Laughing Laughing Laughing Laughing Laughing


And his cutting remark about the Celi Siciid, a classic. Laughing Laughing Laughing Laughing

Cilmiile, look at Population of Jubbaland in 1897, there more of my Juffo[Reer Xassan] there then your beloved Xaartis Laughing Laughing Laughing

In 1897, before the arrival of the Galti Mareexaan (Talxe, Faarax Ugaas, reer Axmed and Cali Dheere), they were around 70,000 reer Xassan in Jubbaland, 70,000 Ogaadeen and merely 2,600 Harti.

There were more Carabs (6,000) than Harti.

This was at a time when most Mareexaans lived in Nugaal (Present Sool and Nugaal). See:

Note: Oltre Giuba means Jubbaland (Gedo, Lower Jubba and Middle Jubba).

Another good book is the story of Cilmi Boodhari the Ciidagale man who fell in love with the Muuse Carre woman Hodan. Her family told him to piss off and gave her in marriage to a Warsangeli man. I guess the Muuse Carre dont rate Ciidagale country Pumpkins Laughing Laughing
