Ethiopia
is located in the Horn of Africa and is bordered on the north and northeast by Eritrea , on the east by Djibouti and Somalia , on the south by Kenya , and on the west and southwest by Sudan . The country has a high central plateau that varies from 1,800 to 3,000 meters (6,000-10,000 feet) above sea level, with some mountains reaching 4,620 meters (15,158 feet). Elevation is generally highest just before the point of descent to the Great Rift Valley , which splits the plateau diagonally. A number of rivers cross the plateaunotably the Blue Nile rising from Lake Tana. The plateau gradually slopes to the lowlands of the Sudan on the west and the Somali-inhabited plains to the southeast. Location: Eastern Africa , west of Somalia Geographic coordinates: 8 00 N, 38 00 E Map references: Africa Area:

    Nile River Geography
    Nile Proper . This mighty river flows northward through Sudan and Egypt to the Mediterranean Sea. Map Credit
    To the south, tropical lakes of Central Africa feed the Nile river. Emanating from Lake Victoria (3720 feet), the Nile flows through Lake Albert (2030 feet) of western Uganda, and northward through southern Sudan as the Mountain Nile to Lake No. Here several smaller tributaries join the river forming the White Nile which flows quietly through the grassy plains of central Sudan to Khartoum.
    The Blue Nile drains the high mountains (13,000+ feet) of Ethiopia, with the help of the Atbara River, which flows into the Nile approximately 150 miles north of Khartoum. These two rivers carry rocky debris that eventually forms the fine stone dust known to comprise the black mud of the Nile.
    Below (north of) Khartoum the Upper Nile Aswan (also Assuan ), forms the natural southern boundary of Egypt.
    Throughout its length, rocky walls, sometimes 600 to 800 feet tall, flank either side of the valley containing the Nile. This valley never exceeds five to nine miles in width throughout the Sudan but broadens past Aswan reaching widths of up to thirty-three miles. Near Gebel Silsileh, about thirty miles north of Aswan, the Sudanese sandstone gives way to limestone. The limestone forms cliffs along the Lower Nile for nearly 475 miles to the Delta
    The cliffs reach high, table-like plateaus that are surrounded by sand from the nearby deserts. The Libyan Desert, the northeastern part of the Sahara, borders the Nile to the west. To the east, the limestone plateau skirts the Arabian Desert which parallels high mountains further east. Primarily granite and gneiss, these mountains border the Red Sea and rise to heights of 6000 feet or more.

    Strabo: The Geography
    The Author, the Manuscripts
    As with most ancient authors, not that much is known of Strabo, and the Loeb edition's introductory material
    The Text of Strabo on LacusCurtius
    As always, I am retyping the text rather than scanning it: not only to minimize errors prior to proofing, but as an opportunity for me to become intimately familiar with the work, an exercise which I heartily recommend. (Well-meaning attempts to get me to scan text, if successful, would merely turn me into some kind of machine: gambit declined.)
    I run a first proofing pass immediately after entering each book, so that the text of all the books is quite good already . After that, a final proofing: in the table of contents below, books whose text I believe to be completely errorfree are shown on blue backgrounds Books 6-14 of the Geography have been online for some time at Perseus , in both the original Greek and an English translation. So although I intend to make the entire work available onsite, I'm starting with Books 1-5 and 15-17. I plan on entering only the English translation, however, since those, now few, who read Greek, will very likely have access to TLG.

Complete Index Drought, Famine, and Geographic Diversity Overview: Many Americans have heard of Ethiopia only in the context of drought, famine, and war. As they listen to the news stories, it is important for students to recognize that the media portrayals of Ethiopia are not always complete and that Ethiopia is, in fact, a geographically diverse country, including forests, grasslands, and the Blue Nile . This lesson will teach students about Ethiopia's different geographic regions.

    http://ethiopia.worldvision.org.nz/getfacts/geography.html
    Ethiopia is located in East Africa, bordering Sudan, Kenya, Somalia, Djibouti and Eritrea. In 1993 it lost its coastline, becoming landlocked when Eritrea became a separate country. Ethiopia's landscape includes rugged highlands, dense forests and hot lowland plains. The highlands cover about 40 per cent of land area. Mount Dashen is the highest point at 4620 metres. Ethiopia's river system begins in the highlands where Lake Tana, the country's largest lake, is located. The rivers carry water and fertile soil to neighbouring countries. More than 80 per cent of the water in the Nile River comes from the Ethiopia highlands. Broad-leafed forests cover about 20 per cent of the country and another 34 per cent is more open woodland savannah. The remainder is grassland and semi-desert. Many regions, which were once rich in vegetation are now rocky, desert areas due to increasing erosion and desertification in the 20th century. Historically Ethiopia had abundant wildlife. Baboons, wild pigs and porcupines are plentiful in the highlands. The country has the largest livestock population of cattle, sheep and goats in the entire Africa region.
