Abyssinians used to be brought as slaves and later as laborers by Nizams to take care of their Cattle. Habeesis (people from Abyssinia) lived for decades in and around this area hence the name “Habeesguda” and now being called as Habsiguda.〔Ababu Minda yimene (An African Indian community in Hyderabad: Siddi identity, its maintenance and change ) Cuvillier Verlag, 2004 ,P.124.〕 Today one can still find these Abyssinians in many parts of Old City and especially in “Barkaas”. Many of these people were mixed with local people and accepted in Muslim communities. Later Habsiguda was occupied by many construction and plantation labourers that were brought from surrounding districts to construct Osmania University by Asaf Jha iiv Osman Ali Khan Bahadur (Prince of then Deccan Princely State). Habsiguda remained as an hamlet under “Nacharam Village” until 1981 and later became an independent Grampanchayat under Uppal Kalan Municipality and now its part of Hyderabad Metropolitan City. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Habsiguda」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
