Princeton Ethiopian, Eritrean, and Egyptian Miracles of Mary (PEMM) project

Interchangeable Spellings of Ethiopic Terms

The peoples of the northern and central Eritrean and Ethiopian highlands have their own unique script, a syllabary with characters representing a consonant and vowel. Called fidäl, they created it in the 200s CE and use it for their Afro-Asiatic language of Geʿez (classical Ethiopic) and other local languages. Geʿez has around forty basic consonant characters and seven vowels, which, in combination with their preceding consonants, are represented through a basic fidäl symbol and six modifications of it. This means that the that complete fidäl set it comprises more than three hundred symbols or glyphs. The vowels of fidäl are [remaining to come here]. The categories would be historical person (a person who appears in the stories as well as the Ethiopian royal chronicles of the period, usually members of royalty or military leaders), local person (maybe would not appear in the Glossary?), biblical figure (someone who appears in the Bible, like King David), religious figure (a famous religious leader, including saints), folkloric figure (legendary person or creature); local place (a place in Ethiopia), biblical place (a place mentioned in the Bible, like Sodom); ethnic term (names of ethnic groups), religious term, temporal term (names of months and times of prayer), medical term (diseases); religious occasion, cultural practice; food, plant, text, title (honorifics), unit of measurement, and object (like boats or buildings).
