It is named after a subgroup of the Silt'e people, whose homeland includes this woreda. Formerly part of the Gurage Zone, after a referendum held between 18 and 26 April 2001, this woreda became part of the Silt'e Zone.〔Sarah Vaughan, ("Ethnicity and Power in Ethiopia" ) (University of Edinburgh: Ph.D. Thesis, 2003), p. 265〕 This woreda is bordered on the south by Lanfro and Dalocha, on the southwest by Wulbareg, on the west by Alicho Werero, on the north by the Gurage Zone, and on the east by the Oromia Region. The administrative center of this woreda is Kibet; other towns in Silte include Alkaso, and Worabe. Southwestern part of this woreda was added to Wulbareg woreda. Silte has 47 kilometers of all-weather roads and 20 kilometers of dry-weather roads, for an average road density of 133 kilometers per 1000 square kilometers.〔(" Detailed statistics on roads" ), SNNPR Bureau of Finance and Economic Development website (accessed 3 September 2009)〕 Local landmarks include the Asano Stele, located 8 kilometers from Kibet. This stele has a flat shape with a height of about 1.5 meters and a width of 80 centimeters. Both sides of the Asano Stele are carved, but its head has been broken off. According to village elders, the place where this monument stands was formerly used as a burial ground.〔("Tourisms" ), Gurage Zone Government website (accessed 11 August 2009)〕 == Demographics == Based on the 2007 Census conducted by the CSA, this woreda has a total population of 177,249, of whom 87,600 are men and 89,649 women; 16,186 or 9.13% of its population are urban dwellers.
