Sembel
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sembel was the site of a village near Asmara, however it is now a suburb of Asmara, Eritrea to the south. Immediately after the Eritrean War of Independence a large Government subsidized housing project was constructed. During its construction and that of a nearby Intercontinental Hotel evidence of ancient settlement was found. The National Museum of Eritrea has constructed a building to allow viewing of the excavation.
