Previous issues of this journal have carried information about early nineteenthcenturyvisits to the northern coast of Somalia by John Studdy Leigh, whoclaimed that he and not Richard Burton was the first European to succeed inpenetrating inland to the city of Harar. Leigh's claim was made in 1892 and hesaid his trip had been made in 1838-1839.1 Although Marcus and Page gave somecautious credence to Leigh's story, Kirkman subsequently showed that theevidence of Leigh's own journal proved that although he had been at Berbera in1838-1839, he had definitely not gone inland to Harar.2 The journal entries alsothrow doubt upon another of Leigh's assertions of 1892: that the people ofBerbera regarded him as "the first European that has visited . . . within .

If you're staying for any length of time in a place, the best way to experience the local culture is through a home stay. Luckily Harar has a number of traditional homes offering spare rooms.A local guide showed me a few and I chose one hidden away in a small alley not far from the Catholic mission. This is the neighborhood that got Harar a UNESCO religious tolerance award because there's an Ethiopian Orthodox Church, a Catholic mission, and several mosques all within sight of each other. Walking home I use three minarets and a giant cross as landmarks.Harari homes look inward. All you see is a gate that leads to a compound of two or more houses, hidden behind their own gates. Enter the second gate and you're still not inside, you're in a courtyard with the bathroom to one side and to the other a large, ornately carved wooden door leading to the main building. Harari homes have a unique architecture. With thick stone walls and small windows, they stay cool even in the scorching heat of the day. Leaving your shoes at the front door, you enter the nedeba, or living room. The walls are covered in colorful plates and baskets and often cabinets with multicolored glassware. Hararis love to decorate their rooms with the products of their centuries-old crafts. People sit on a series of platforms, reclining against pillows. The platforms are painted red in memory of those who died at the battle of Tchellenqo in 1887, when the Ethiopian Emperor Menelik II defeated Harar's Emir Abdullahi and the city lost its independence.Where you sit depends on who you are. The amir nedeba is where the head of the family sits. It's on the highest platform, usually in one corner where he can see the entrance to the compound. In olden days there was a spot for keeping some spears right next to the amir nedeba, just in case the person entering the compound wasn't welcome. After a month in Harar I've only seen one guy who regularly carries a spear, though.

The Authour presents the untold story of Chelenqo and it's aftermath. A narration of Hararies and a document content is manifested in the article. Criticism of the History depicted by Historical books is also reflected.
