The Gaturi (Harari: ጋቱሪ), also spelled as Gatouri are an extinct ethnic group that once inhabited present-day eastern Ethiopia.[1]

History

According to Mohammed Hassan, the Gaturi were a Semitic-speaking people who resided in the region of mount Kundudo and Babile, the region that formed part of the little principality of Dawaro.[2]

The Harari chronicle states Abadir arrived at an Islamic region called Bandar Gaturi known later as Harar in the tenth or thirteenth century.[3][4] In Harar, Abadir encountered the Gaturi alongside the Harla and Argobba people.[5] Gaturi is claimed by one source to be a Harla sub clan.[6] According to another Harari tradition seven clans and villages united against a common adversary including Gaturi to form Harar city-state.[7]

In the middle ages during the Ethiopian-Adal war, one of the leaders of the Muslim forces of Malassay was Amir Husain bin Abubaker al-Gaturi.[8] Ahmad ibn Ibrahim al-Ghazi designated Amir Husain al-Gaturi as governor of Dawaro region which Ulrich Braukämper states was a border province of Abyssinia.[9]

Gaturi ceased to be mentioned in texts after the sixteenth century. Gaturi is today represented as a sub group of the Harari people and remains a Harari surname.[10][11]

Language

They spoke Gaturi language, possibly an extinct South Ethiopic grouping within the Semitic subfamily of the Afroasiatic languages and closely related to Harari and Argobba languages.[12]
