Highlights
One of the most important pre-historic sites in Ethiopia, Melka Kunture was occupied intermittently for 1.8 million years from the Early Stone Age into the New Stone Age.
Built during the 12th or 13th Century, Adadi Mariam is the southernmost of Ethiopia's rock-hewn churches still in existence. Local tradition associates it with King Lalibela's visit to the area in 1106, and there are certainly similarities between it and the famous rock-hewn churches of Lalibela.
Itinerary
Melka Kunture
3 hoursAdmission Ticket IncludedSituated at 60km south-west of Addis Ababa Melka-Kunture is a famous archaeological site where fossils of pre-history age as well as stone tools dating 1.5 million years have been discovered. Few km drives this point can be reached Adadi Mariam Cave Church believed to date back to the 13th century and gives a good indication of the Lalibela rock-hewnchurches of the 12th century. Classified by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site, where we can see the northernmost example of a peculiar type of engraved, standing stelae which stretch across parts of southern Ethiopia. These stelae are believed to have been erected between the 12th and 14th centuries and are almost certainly grave markers – recent excavations at Tiya have revealed the remains of young people of both sexes, aged between 18 to 30 years old buried in foetal positions. Back to Addis and end of the tour.Adadi Maryam
