Meta Robi

Meta Robi is one of the Aanaas in the Oromia region of Ethiopia. Part of the West Shewa Zone, it is bordered on the south by Ejerie, on the southwest by Jeldu, on the northwest by Ginde Beret, on the north by the Muger River (which separates it from the North Shewa Zone), and on the east by Adda Berga. The major town in Meta Robi is Shino.

The missionary Johann Ludwig Krapf passed through the district of a tribe of the Oromo, who were called the Meta Robi, named in part after a local river, the Robi on 27 January 1840. The river was in Shewa, southwest of Ankober.[1]
