Description: ***A very old book probably from Egypt in Amharic language, museum book, rare and collectable!*** **Please note the photos are part of the description and you can see the size and other details. The book is rare and has physical wear and tear from the passage of time.** *Amharic is a Semitic language, spoken by roughly 22 million people, the majority of whom live in Ethiopia, where it is an official language. Amharic-speaking communities have settled in the United States, Israel (where they are known as 'Beta Israel'), Canada, the United Kingdom, Egypt and Sweden.* *The book is made of parchment (so human touch does not destroy its pages), and is bound with string with hard, wooden covers at each end. Their red and black text indicates that it is likely a religious work, and probably originated somewhere in South-Eastern Egypt around 18th century"maybe more"years ago. It is a remarkable example of how complex it used to be to make books in the past.
