Melka Kunture
Melka Kuntre, Stone Age site (between 1.5 and 1.8 Million years old), contains many samples of
Stone Age tools of the early Homo sapiens. The collections are results of the excavations of the
last four decades. The samples are well exhibited in show rooms and there is very good scientific
explanation about Stone Age tools in general and the site in particular.

Adadi Maryam
Adadi Mariam, also lies along this road and it is the only rock hewn church to exist as
this region. The church is not carefully carved as the rock-hewn churches in Lalibela but it has a
lot of similarities with most of them and the rock-hewn churches of Tigray.
