....more explotation....rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!! The Harvard Ethnomusicologist Kay Kaufman, whose work I have followed, has studied and identified this, not as an isolated case in Ethiopia but as she found "With Peter Jeffery of Princeton, Shelemay edited and published between 1993 and 1997 the three-volume anthology Ethiopian Christian Liturgical Chant. Among its revelations: although indigenous sub-Saharan African music was thought to exist only orally, this particular Ethiopian music, at least, has a long-established form of notation, dating from the sixteenth century, when Islamic invasion threatened the Church, forcing its adherents to invent a way to record its vital traditions." #OwnYourNarratives #OldPirates Ugh.
