Gultosh

Gultosh used to be an all-Jewish village located near the city of Gondar, in Ethiopia. The original inhabitants left for Israel in the 1980s, the last of which stayed until 1986.[1] It is uncertain whether Gultosh is still unpopulated or has been repopulated by locals from nearby villages.

The village was situated in a valley between mountains and relied on small-scale agriculture, with tef, wheat and barley being among the main crops.

The Israeli rapper Jeremy Cool Habesh was born in Gultosh.[1]
