Boditi (
As of 2006 permanent postal service is available, as well as electricity and telephone service, more colleges and higher educational institutions are currently being developed as the number of school-aged children increases.[1] The map attached to C. W. Gwynn's account of his 1908/09 triangulation survey of southern Ethiopia shows Boditi, with the note that it had a market.[2] During the early 1930s, the market was held on Tuesdays and was very important. In 1969, a group of Swedish architectural students surveyed Boditi, and presented their findings to the University of Lund.[3]
