This dude has made a lot of changes in this page claiming it's typo while it's not (take a look at the history page) in 12 July 2018 he has changed many things claiming it's typo. I am going to fix this article in the next few days but I need someone to stop him first because he is so provocative. SharabSalam (talk) 02:07, 21 August 2018 (UTC)

Here is the Abstract for the source —-

Eurocentrism and Ethiopian Historiography: Deconstructing Semitization (A Eurocentric interpretation of Ethiopian History led to the misconception of Horn of Africa people being of supposed Semitic origin)]: ------ "A society cannot properly map out and accomplish its future if it mistakes its history for that of another society. Saddled with alien problems such a society is bound to stumble constantly. A case in point is Ethiopia: among the various factors that contributed to the present plight of Ethiopia, a false or borrowed reading of its history figures prominently. Focusing on the alleged Semitic origin of Aksumite civilization, this paper uncovers the manner the allegation structured the disparity between the north and the south to the point of ushering in the colonial interpretation of the southern expansion in addition to misconstruing the causes of Ethiopia’s socioeconomic '~retardation~' " (Messay Kebede) --------------------- Eurocentrism and Ethiopian Historiography: Deconstructing Semitization Author(s): Messay Kebede Source: International Journal of Ethiopian Studies, Vol. 1, No. 1 (Summer/Fall 2003), pp. 1- 19 Published by: Tsehai Publishers Stable URL: https://www.jstor.org/stable/27828817— Preceding unsigned comment added by RealHistory45 (talkcontribs) 16:19, 30 October 2018 (UTC)
