Haddinnet , также транслитерированный как HADT , является табией или муниципалитетом в районе Dogu'a Temben в Тигрей в Эфиопии регионе Центр Табиа находится в деревне Адди Идога, расположенной примерно в 6,5 км к северо -восточному из Ворда города Хагере Селам
География
[ редактировать ]
Таблица Догуа расположена на южных и северных склонах хребта Цили в северной части Тембиена . Самый высокий пик - Dabba Selama (2630 м ASL) (не путайте с домонимным монастырем ) и самым низким местом вдоль реки Agefet (1720 м ASL).


Geology
[ редактировать ]

From the higher to the lower locations, the following geological formations are present:[1]
- Phonolite plugs
- Upper basalt
- Interbedded lacustrine deposits
- Lower basalt
- Amba Aradam Formation
- Agula Shale[2]
- Antalo Limestone
- Adigrat Sandstone
- Edaga Arbi Glacials
- Quaternary alluvium and freshwater tufa[3]
Climate
[edit]The rainfall pattern shows a very high seasonality with 70 to 80% of the annual rain falling in July and August. Mean temperature in Addi Idaga is 20.4 °C, oscillating between average daily minimum of 11.5 °C and maximum of 28.9 °C. The contrasts between day and night air temperatures are much larger than seasonal contrasts.[4]

Springs
[edit]As there is very poor baseflow in the permanent rivers, the presence of springs is of utmost importance for the local people. The main springs in the tabia are:[5]
- Ruba Weyni, fed by seepage from May Leiba reservoir
- May Damo in Atsa
- Abune Ayezgi in Debre Medhanit
Reservoirs
[edit]In this area with rains that last only for a couple of months per year, reservoirs of different sizes allow harvesting runoff from the rainy season for further use in the dry season. Overall they suffer from siltation.[6] Yet, they strongly contribute to greening the landscape, either through irrigation or seepage water. Main reservoirs are:
- May Leiba reservoir, in Ayninbirkekin tabia, constructed in 1998
- Traditional surface water harvesting ponds, particularly in places without permanent springs, called rahaya
- Horoyo, household ponds, recently constructed through campaigns[7]
Vegetation and exclosures
[edit]The tabia holds several exclosures, areas that are set aside for regreening.[8] Wood harvesting and livestock range are not allowed there. Besides effects on biodiversity,[9][10][11] water infiltration, protection from flooding, sediment deposition,[12] carbon sequestration,[13] people commonly have economic benefits from these exclosures through grass harvesting, beekeeping and other non-timber forest products.[14] The local inhabitants also consider it as “land set aside for future generations”.[15]


Settlements
[edit]The tabia centre Addi Idaga holds a few administrative offices, a health post, a primary school, and some small shops. Saturday is the market day.[5] There are a few more primary schools across the tabia. The main other populated places are:[16]

Agriculture and livelihood
[edit]The population lives essentially from crop farming, supplemented with off-season work in nearby towns. The land is dominated by farmlands which are clearly demarcated and are cropped every year. Hence the agricultural system is a permanent upland farming system.[17] The farmers have adapted their cropping systems to the spatio-temporal variability in rainfall.[18] Large irrigated lands have been established in Addi Idaga. The youngsters of the tabia have established wide grasslands on mountain ridges; the grass is mainly sold for thatching.
History and culture
[edit]
History
[edit]The history of the tabia is strongly confounded with the history of Tembien. In the 1930s, during the Italian invasion, Ksad Azef (13°44.2′N 39°13′E / 13.7367°N 39.217°E) was an important battlefield during the First Battle of Tembien. It is a place through which the Tembien highlands could relatively easily be accessed when coming from the Gheralta lowlands. The Italians called it Passo Abaro.[19] Italian Blackshirt soldiers left a memorial stone on top of the nearby Mount Dabba Selama.[20]

Religion and churches
[edit]Most inhabitants are Orthodox Christians. The following churches are located in the tabia:

Inda Siwa, the local beer houses
[edit]In the main villages, there are traditional beer houses (Inda Siwa), often in unique settings, which are a good place for resting and chatting with the local people. The most renown in the tabia are all located in the tabia centre Addi Idaga:[5]
- Yergalem Assefa
- Mulubrhan Hagos
- Mihret Abrha
Roads and communication
[edit]
The main road Mekelle – Hagere Selam – Abiy Addi runs 5–10 km south of the tabia. People need to walk long distances to catch a bus. Further, a rural access road links most villages to the main asphalt road.
Tourism
[edit]Its mountainous nature and proximity to Mekelle makes the tabia fit for tourism.[21]
Touristic attractions
[edit]- Tsili ridge
- Tinsehe waterfall
- Dabba Selama mountain, with Erica arborea forest, church, and a memorial stone of the 1930s, left by soldiers of the Italian army, a metres-wide phonolite with inscriptions.[20]
- Kidane Mihret rock church in Ab'aro, surrounded by tufa plugs, springs and a cluster of trees. The church was established in widened caves of the tufa plug.[20]
Geotouristic sites
[edit]The high variability of geological formations and the rugged topography invites for geological and geographic tourism or "geotourism".[22] Geosites in the tabia include:

Birdwatching
[edit]Birdwatching (for the species, see the main Dogu'a Tembien page) can be done particularly in exclosures and forests. The Wehabit Sillasie church forest bird-watching site is particularly interesting.[9][16]

Trekking routes
[edit]Trekking routes have been established in this tabia.[20] The tracks are not marked on the ground but can be followed using downloaded .GPX files.[23]
- Trek 21, along the northern side of Tsaliet gorge up to Addi Hamushenai, and further down to Addeha in Kola Tembien
- Trek 23 to the top of Dabba Selama mountain
- Trek 26, over the top of Tsili ridge
- Trek Gh2, from Addi Idaga, down to Gheralta, along the Ab'aro rock church
Accommodation and facilities
[edit]The facilities are very basic.[24] One may be invited to spend the night in a rural homestead or ask permission to pitch a tent. Hotels are available in Hagere Selam and Mekelle.
