Swayne, ''Seventeen Trips through Somaliland and a visit to Abyssinia: With Supplementary preface on the 'Mad Mullah' risings'' (London: Rowland Ward, 1903), pp. xii-xiv〕 By 1932, the Italians had built a road from Danot to Geladin over terrain that officially lay within Ethiopian territory. This was one of many acts that led to the Second Italian-Abyssinian War years later.〔("Local History in Ethiopia" ) The Nordic Africa Institute website (accessed 6 December 2007)〕
