Welcome To My Biro!
(The word biro is the Amarigna for office)
As you wander through my office you will discover places that serve as my homebase for certain activities. In the Courtyard I conduct my social activities here at AncientWorlds and in Gebts (Gebts is the ancient name of Egypt). My Library is for my historical and academic pursuits. Finally, in my Study you will find my game playing scores, statistics and artifacts. Below is the preface to my book, Amarigna & Tigrigna Qal Hieroglyphs for Beginners so you'll know a little about me and what I do. Thanks for visiting my home!
PREFACE TO "AMARIGNA & TIGRIGNA QAL HIEROGLYPHS FOR BEGINNERS"
BY FIKRE TOLOSSA, Ph.D. LITERATURE
 This dictionary attempts to provide proof that the ancient language of the Egyptians, whose alphabet is known as the hieroglyphs, had something to do with the Ethiopian and Eritrean languages, Amharic and Tigrigna. According to the author, the vocabulary and concepts of Amharic and Tigrigna are concealed in the hieroglyphs. A person who can read hieroglyphs and knows Amharic and Tigrigna can decipher the mystery hidden behind the hieroglyphs.
While it will be a great surprise to the world at large if Mr. Legesse Allyn’s discovery proves to be valid, it might not be that big of a surprise to Ethiopians and Eritreans in particular. This is because it is a known fact that ancient people of today's regions of Ethiopia and Eritrea have ruled Egypt. Given this fact, it is no wonder if they had left their impact and contribution to Egyptian civilization in a much broader sense, even from its beginnings, as Mr. Legesse Allyn asserts.
Mr. Legesse Allyn is not a conventional Egyptologist per se, even though he has been studying Egypt and the hieroglyphs for the past 20 years. The truth that he is of Ethiopian descent has contributed immensely to the understanding of his claims. If one considers him to be an amateur Egyptologist, history has revealed amateurs who have discovered or invented new things which experts in a given field failed to discover or invent.
As such, if his discovery is real, it is phenomenal and revolutionary. Its impact on the study of hieroglyphs, Amharic and Tigrigna languages, as well as on the history of Egypt, Ethiopia, and Eritrea, is tremendous. Moreover, open-minded Egyptologists, as well as those who study the regions of today's Ethiopia and Eritrea, can benefit a lot from his work. Even the skeptics will have to examine it before they decide to reject or accept it.
If I were an Egyptologist (or even an Ethiopist), I would grab this book immediately and read it frantically. I would also be prompted to study right away Ethiopian and Eritrean languages, such as Amharic and Tigrigna, to delve into the world Mr. Legesse Allyn asserts his research has uncovered.
