Habesha is a name that has different meanings. It is a supraethnicity which is a grouping of several interrelated ethnicities that have similar but unique cultures. It is a cultural identity that goes on top of a person's ethnicity, national identity, and citizenship. Habesha is a cultural community that contains several different ethnic groups and unique cultures of the peoples of Eritrea and Ethiopia and has two main definitions.

One definition is a meta-ethnic definition of Habesha, which is used to refer to the people who's ancestors have lived in the Ethiopian and Eritrean Highlands for many generations, generally they speak Ethiosemitic and Agaw languages, and are descended from or related to a common ancestry or ancestral culture before their cultures started spreading apart from each other.

Another definition is a pan-ethnic definition of Habesha, which s used to refer to all peoples and ethnic groups who's ancestors come from all over Ethiopia and Eritrea. This means that Habesha culture is made up of several similar but unique cultures, including the cultures of the two main countries of Ethiopia and Eritrea, the cultures of the 80 or so ethnic groups that comprise the two countries, and the adoption of cultural practices of other countries that the large diaspora population has adopted from the countries outside of Ethiopia and Eritrea that they live in now


The Ethiosemitic and Agaw speaking peoples of Northern Ethiopia and Eritrea, share a meta-ethnic connection to each other and have a common history. The Ethiosemitic-speaking peoples speak different but similar languages with each other; the Agaw-speaking peoples have the same relationship with each other as well.

The other people groups of Ethiopia and Eritrea are not meta-ethnically Habesha but they can be considered pan-ethnically Habesha . In other words, the Cushitic-speaking, Omotic-speaking, and Nilotic-speaking peoples of Ethiopia and Eritrea have their own separate meta-ethnicities, different cultures, and slight different histories respectively.

The Habesha pan-ethnic identity used mostly by the peoples of Central Ethiopia and Eritrea, as well as the diaspora. This pan-ethnic identity emerged because the cultures and peoples of Northern and Southern Ethiopia and Eritrea started interacting with each other leading to commonalities forming between different cultures and ethnic groups in areas of Central Ethiopia-Eritrea and most visibly in the diaspora where these people groups are culturally closer to each other than they are to other people groups outside of their traditional homelands of Eritrea and Ethiopia.


Very often, the term is used for groups that are mostly Eastern Christian. Habesha are either Christian or Muslim, some are Jewish like the Beta Israel. A sizeable minority of the overall religious population is Muslim, most are Sunnis, a few belong to Sufi orders. Within the Christian population, most are Oriental Orthodox of the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo and Eritrean Orthodox Tewahedo (Orthodox Tewahedo) churches, while Protestants (Eastern Protestants) like the P'ent'ay / Ethiopian-Eritrean Evangelicals make up a sizable minority and Catholics (Eastern Catholics) of the Ethiopian Catholic Church and Eritrean Catholic Church exist, and are among the oldest Christian groups known.

The actual number of people who identify as Habesha is unknow, because there is no legal definition defining Habesha identity because it is based only on cultural self-identification of cultural identity. Some estimate that there are probably about 32 to 35 million Habesha people (30 million in Ethiopia and 2 to 5 millions in Eritrea), but this may be a huge undercount because of the huge variations in the definition of Habesha, this number only calculates the number of Amharas and Tigrayans of Northern Ethiopia and Eritrea, and completely ignores the number of Habesha people of all definitions in the diaspora who have left their traditional homelands.

Habesha peoples, Habesha Community, or Habesha (Ge'ez: ሐበሠተ, romanized: Ḥäbäśät or Ḥabäśät[1]; ሐበሻ, አበሻ romanized: Häbäša, 'äbäša ; ሓበሻ romanized: Ḥabäša etymologically related to English "Abyssinia" and "Abyssinians" by way of Latin) is a Supra-Ethnic term and cultural community with a wide range of meanings that is used as a cultural identifier and grouping of multiple interrelated ethnic groups and cultures in Ethiopia, Eritrea, and within communities of Eritreans and Ethiopians in the diaspora. It contains two types of Supraethnicities, one is a Meta-ethnicity and the other is a Panethnicity.

The term is most frequently employed as a meta-ethnic identifier referring to several Ethiosemitic-speaking and Central Cushitic-speaking peoples of the Ethiopian Highlands and Eritrean Highlands, and are generally linked by a common ancestry. Historically, the ethnic groups of the Ethiopian Highlands and Eritrean Highlands, were predominantly of the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo and Eritrean Orthodox Tewahedo Christian faith; even though these ethnic groups are predominantly Christian, the identifier also includes Muslim communities within these same ethnic groups. In certain cases like in parts of Eritrea, the term Habesha may be used in a restricted sense as only applying to Tigrayans and Tigrinya-speakers. In other cases it can be used in a restricted sense in applying only to adherents of Christianity and excluding the adherents of Islam even though they may be part of the same constituent ethnic group of the highlands and speak the same ancestral language.

The term Habesha is also used as a pan-ethnic identifier mostly by diaspora communities outside of their ethnic homelands as a broader community identifier encompassing all peoples of Eritrean and Ethiopian national origin regardless of ethnicity as well as the inclusion of hyphenated ethnicities that have had an ethnogenesis in the diaspora. It not only encompasses the peoples of Ethiopia and Eritrea and people of Eritrean and Ethiopian national origin, it also encompasses the cultural practices and Habesha regionalisms (that are unique to their city, province/state, geographic region, costal sea board, etc.) that the diaspora have adopted in their new home. Certain national identities don’t adequately describe this phenomenon and cultural commonality, so a pan-ethnic sense of Habesha identity emerged encompassing Ethiopia, Eritrea, the various ethnic groups of both, people of both national origins, and the Habesha diaspora regionalism that make them distinct in a way that Ethiopians and Eritreans in one region are closer to each other than they are to their counterparts in another region or country.


Habesha peoples (Ge'ez: ሐበሠተ, romanized: Ḥäbäśät or Ḥabäśät[2]; Amharic: ሐበሻ, አበሻ, romanized: Häbäša, 'äbäša; Tigrinya: ሓበሻ, romanized: Ḥabäša; etymologically related to English "Abyssinia" and "Abyssinians" by way of Latin via Arabic) is a term that has most frequently been employed to refer to serval Ethiosemitic language-speaking peoples of highland Ethiopia and Eritrea, but the term in other cases has also been applied to other ethnic groups and all people of Eritrean and Ethiopian origin namely gaining popularity among those in diaspora communities brought about through an outgrowth of good non-state communal relations between Eritreans and Ethiopians in the diaspora.[24] Historically most are Eastern Christians of the Oriental Orthodox variety with origins in the state Orthodox Tewahedo Church of the Ethiopian Empire, the predecessor body of what would later become the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo and Eritrean Orthodox Tewahedo churches, but the population also has a number of adherents of other denominations of Christianity like those among the Ethiopian-Eritrean Evangelical churches[23][25], as well as a few Muslim[26] and Jewish (Beta Israel)[27] minorities.

Historically, the term "Habesha" represented northern Ethiopian Highlands Orthodox Christians, while the Oromos and the ethnic groups that were referred to as "Shanqella", as well as Muslims, were considered outside the periphery.[28][29][30][31] Predominately Muslim ethnic groups in the Eritrean Highlands such as the Tigre have historically opposed the name Habesha; most Muslim Tigrinya-speakers (especially in Eritrea) are usually referred to as Jeberti people. At the turn of the 20th century, certain elites of the Solomonic dynasty employed the conversion of various ethnic groups to Orthodox Tewahedo Christianity and the imposition of the Amharic and Tigrinya languages to spread a common highland Habesha national identity.[32]

Even though the term is rarely used in modern day Ethiopia and Eritrea, because of the previously mentioned connotation it holds, within Ethiopian and Eritrean diasporic populations in North America and Europe, especially among second generation immigrants and for others (influenced by Habesha diaspora social media spaces) who employ the term, "Habesha" has taken on a broader supra-national ethnic identifier inclusive of all Eritreans and Ethiopians.[33] [34] Under this broader sense, it serves as a useful counter to more exclusionary identities, as well as a way to strengthen collaboration and ties between the Eritrean and Ethiopian communities in areas with limited numbers of both populations outside their native homelands.[35] [36] However, this usage is not uncontested especially in the Ethiopian and Eritrean homelands: On the one hand, those who grew up in Ethiopia or Eritrea may object to the obscuring of national specificity.[37]: 186–188  On the other hand, certain people groups that were subjugated in Ethiopia or Eritrea sometimes find the term offensive,[38] while others oppose the term "Habesha" as well as terms like "Ethiopian", and "Eritrean" on ethnic separatist grounds preferring to use specific ethnic identities over multi-ethnic inclusive national-citizenship, national origin, and pan-ethnic identities.|2=Passage from article}}

There are varying definitions of who identifies as an Habesha. These definitions vary from community to community, from Western anthropological theories to day-to-day usage, from generation to generation, and between the various diaspora groups, and the communities that still reside in their ancestral homeland. Differences in usage can be found among different communities and people within the same constituent ethnic group.

While more contemporary studies done by S. M. Oliphant on Ethiopian Immigration Experiences in the United States at the Catholic University of America in conjunction with Catholic Charities Migration and Refugee Services which works with Ethiopian and Eritrean immigrants, the study shows that Habesha identity — more evidently in the context of diaspora communities (because of more funding and sociological research being done in places where the diaspora live like the West)— is used as an inclusive pan-ethnic identifier for Ethiopians, Eritreans, and the various ethnic groups they comprise. Some non-exhaustive examples are the Tigre and Oromo ethnic groups as stated in the study. Mary Goitom, a researcher at York University and the University of Calgary studying the usage of the term “Habesha” among Ethiopian and Eritrean youth in the Toronto, Ontario, Canada area, also had similar findings as Oliphant’s study in that Ethiopian and Eritrean youth use ‘Habesha’ as a “supra-national” multi-ethnic term to signify their shared cultural identity but in contrast, Goitom does mention the existence of an older narrow definition for the term even though her current findings show that a more broader “supra-national”, multi-ethnic, and inclusive definition has emerged. According to these studies, neither Oliphant nor Goitom make the assertions that non-Highlander ethnic groups would have to abandon the non-Amhara or non-Tigray aspects of their culture and identity under the contemporary usage of the term “Habesha”, while Goitom’s study shows the generational tension between the ‘only Ethiopian and Eritrean Highlanders are Habesha’ faction vs. ‘all ethnic groups of Ethiopian and Eritrean ancestry are Habesha’ factions of the cultural debate. In the study Becoming Habesha: The journey of second-generation Ethiopian and Eritrean Youth in Canada, Goitom also states similar findings as shown in her other studies including interviews with several members of the Habesha community. Goitom’s study interviewing multiple members of the Habesha community, shows the current use of the cultural identity term “Habesha” as a multi-ethnic idenity that includes all ethnic groups of Eritrea and Ethiopia and as a way to foster communal relations between the Ethiopian and Eritrean diasporas abroad, with Participant 15 stating that “Habesha” is used to fill a divide when Ethiopian and Eritrean youth want to invite each other to cultural event without having to use politically contentious terms that align with current national boundaries and also making it clear in their statement that Oromos are considered Habesha within said community. Goitom then goes to states that, “ transnational markers and experiences that comprise Habesha identity, for participant 6 [and those stated earlier in the study say that] Habesha is not a ‘zero-sum’ label that generates winners and losers rather it is an open and flexible identity” which is defined as “anyone who is Ethiopian or Eritrean.” Within this same study, Goitom re-iterates that “Habesha” was not always used as an inclusive term among previous generation of Ethiopians and Eritreans, but has emerged as an inclusive term for all peoples descended from Ethiopians, Eritreans, and their diaspora by newer generations that have consolidated this identity because of their shared experiences and their inter-dependence on each other outside of their parents’ homeland. Statements made by Hannah Giorgis of The Atlantic, Heran Mamo of the University of Southern California, and The Washington Post (in Washington, D.C.) who are heavily connected with the Ethiopian, Eritrean, and Habesha communities also corroborates this same sentiment found in the studies published about the term Habesha as used within the community itself, with Mamo and Giorgis showing its wide use among the community and the Washington Post explaining it as “an umbrella [term], a way to describe the various ethnic groups hailing from the northeast corner of Africa … an insider’s phrase, a badge of pride and kinship among Ethiopians and Eritreans”[41][42][43][44][45]
