Argobba Bari Explained

Argobba Bari,[1] [2] more commonly known as Argob Bari[3] meaning "Argobba gate" is one of five ancient gates of Harar, Ethiopia.[4] [5] [6] [7] This gate is also known as the gate of compassion.[8] The gate, which is now located in the eastern part of the Old City, was named in memory of the Argobba people who fled from Ifat during their conflict with Abyssinia in the fifteenth century and settled outside the town of the lowlands in Aw Abdal.[9] [10] [11]
