Abergele (woreda)
Abergele or Tanqua Abergele is one of the woredas in the Tigray Region of Ethiopia. Part of the Mehakelegnaw Zone, Abergele is bordered on the south and west by the Amhara Region, then by the Tekezé River on the west which separates it from Amhara Region and the Semien Mi'irabawi (North Western) Zone, on the north by Kola Tembien, on the east by Degua Tembien and on the southeast by the Debub Misraqawi (South Eastern) Zone. The administrative center of this woreda is Yechila; other towns in Abergele include Agbe.
Abergele is named for the historic district of Abergele, which Francisco Álvares notes had been part of Begemder, but was divided from it a few years before he arrived in Ethiopia in 1520. About a century later, Pedro Páez recorded that Abergele paid only a little less tribute than neighboring Tembien.〔("Local History in Ethiopia" ) The Nordic Africa Institute website (accessed 2 January 2008)〕 The Tanqua River, which originates near Hagere Selam, flows through this woreda and joins the Geba just north of Jijike.
