A List Of Headmen at that time.
Cilmi Dalamiye later became some sort of a policeman and years later put the young rascal Cali Dhuux to prison, the later plead his innocence and lamented saying:
Waa diin ladahay Dalamiyow ima duqaysayne
Dadka Igama maagteen u siman Dir iyo Daaroode
Duunyadayda lama raadiyeen dayn anoon qabine
Dusha igama saarteen Midgaan dilay Abaankiiye.
That aforementioned part was just lucky concidence , Salaan along with Cilmi Dalamiye , the reason I was searching for this book was because of its timing 1897. This Austerian traveler visited Somaliland in 1897 between the months of July and Oct a crucial time , and he went through the Habar Awal, Habar Yoonis, Dhulbahnate and Ogaden land. This exactly the time the Kacaanist claim the Mullah left Berbera ( implying the reason was the Idoor indifference to the Gaalo) and was preaching Jihaad to the Dhulbahnate who supposedly hated the "gaalo" . But as it appears the Dhulbahnate didn't much care about Gaalo or Islam as long they were getting their "Kahyli" red colored sheets , as soon as Wickenburg reached the Dhulbahnate land , they performered a Dabaal-Dag for his honor not for their Garaad as the custom dictates. This alone belies further the Kacaan version of history which am digging its grave slowly.
IV. Section. From the Dolbohanta- landscape to Ogaden. A Dibaltig (Dabaal-dag)
pp.85-86,Since I was in Buleli the areas of Dolbohanta-Somal. Soon some thirty riders same to us to perform in my honor a Dibaltig. Most of these Somal had light-colored long hair, many sitting bareback on their little horses with by Arab Art a very sharp rod gezäunt, and everyone wore 'his little shield and two spears in hand. The Dibaltig began when placed themselves all riders in a line in front of me and had their leader, who held in the middle, and a colorful "Tob" from Khaili wound around the body, a long song sang a song of praise to me - "They say, you are a very big one, " said my caravan leader Salan, - then suddenly stob the whole society, as on command, like a whirlwind, with wild shrill call at breakneck Carriäre apart. Some threw their spears while others lay across their horses, or allowed themselves down at one side thereof to the ground; still others were performing around artful twists around trees, or made sharp saves, so that the poor horses was due to the sharp rod soon bloody foam in the mouth. Then all came back at full gallop is whizzes, parirten just ahead of me undnun began singing again, then again ended with the previously mentioned scene.
The performance of Dibaltig is Somallande a great award that is only in honor of outstanding natives or Europeans that you want to stand out, organized. I therefore gifted people also abundant with "Tobs," although I felt no joy, because the Mass usually my stores of very Transferred to the prejudice; but my Somal testified about this performance a very childish Freude.Da I a leader for my next marches benöthigte, I moved my camp after about two hours distant area Lebi Alan, where at that time the master of Arsäma Achmed, who is also among the Dolbohanta, their flocks grazed.
