'''Yubbe''' (also known as '''Yube''', '''Yubeh''' and '''Yubbe Tug'''<ref name="Speke"/>) is a town in the northern [[Sanaag]] region of [[Somalia]]. It is situated in the [[Yubbe District]]. |
|||
==History== |
|||
A desert town mostly inhabited by nomads, Yubbe is home to numerous old archaeological structures. While visiting the locality in the 19th century, the British explorer [[John Hanning Speke]] described having seen various [[Tumulus|tumuli]]. Of these, he reported that one contained "a hollow compartment propped up by beams of timber, at the bottom of which, buried in the ground, were several earthenware pots, some leaden coins, a ring of gold such as the Indian Mussulman women wear in their noses, and various other miscellaneous property."<ref name="Speke">John Hanning Speke, ''What led to the discovery of the source of the Nile'', (Blackwood: 1864), p.68.</ref> |
