== Overview ==
Archeological surveys at the village of Aynalem has recovered Sabaean inscriptions, an obelisk carved from stone, rocks shaped to resemble Egyptian pyramids, and ancient metal utensils in an area which has been left uncultivated due to religious beliefs. Gezaei Haile, a scientist and geology instructor at Mekelle University, in an interview with ''Jimma Times'' dated these artifacts to "a time of 200 years before birth of Christ, as none of the antiquities have sign of cross on them."〔("Group of Ethiopian Scientists Discover Ancient Antiquities" ), ''Jimma times'' website, originally published 30 November 2007 (accessed 14 December 2009)〕 There are several local monolithic churches in this woreda. These include Wukro Chirkos (at the edge of Wukro town), Abreha we Atsbeha, and Minda'e Mikael.〔Described in Philip Briggs, ''Ethiopia: The Bradt Travel Guide'', 3rd edition (Chalfont St Peters: Bradt, 2002), p. 258-260.〕 The village of Negash, widely believed to be the first Muslim settlement in Africa, is also an important local landmark.
Wukro was one of nine woredas in Tigray most affected by a drought during 2008, requiring emergency food supplies to be requested for an estimated 600,000 people.〔("Ethiopia: Drought intensifies in Tigray" ) IRIN (last accessed 8 December 2008〕
