What is "termaber"

Termaber is one of the woredas in the Amhara Region of Ethiopia. Located at the eastern edge of the Ethiopian highlands in the Semien Shewa Zone, Termaber is bordered on the south by Ankober, on the southwest by Basona Werana, on the west by Mojana Wadera, on the northwest by Menz Mam Midir, on the northeast by Kewet, and on the southeast by the Afar Region. Towns in this woreda include Debre Sina and Doqaqit.

This woreda was originally named Mafud Mezezo Mojana, which is the name the 1994 national census used for it, but the name was changed at some point over the next five years. In 1999, the woreda of Mojana Wadera was split off from Termaber, and a kebele transferred to it from Kewet.

Tegulet, the ancient residence of the Ethiopian and Shewan rulers, is believed to lie in this woreda. Rivers in this woreda include the Mofar.
