Help to translate Amharic
2 Attachment(s)
Hello,
Could you please help me to translate Amharic word on the shotel in photo and tell where is from the logo on the blade (crown) ? Thanks in advance. |
Very nice. Please post pictures of the whole piece.

The writing on your GURADE (NOT a SHOTEL) is in Ge'ez from the Ethiopian Bible and it reads Y TI YO PI YA: TE BE TSE HE: I DE WI HA: BE I GHE ZEE
E BI HE R::. which translate as ETHIOPIA RAISES HER HANDS TO GOD. The CROWN stamp has no particular significance, The blade was IMPORTED by M. KEVORKOFF & Co. of Harar. Sometimes, the initials MK in a circle are found stamped on the ricasso. |
roanoa, thanks for your detailed response. Excellent data.
SAM, please post a picture of the entire sword. This is a requirement for any translation request. We need such information for our Archives. Thanks. |
