Teshome Gabre-Mariam Bokan, Remembered in Two Calendars
A bilingual memorial site for the Ethiopian attorney-general, OAU Charter drafter, Derg prisoner, and counsel to the imperial family.
Field notes
The memorial organizes its entry point around a bilingual interface, two calendar systems, and a small set of routes for biography, archival material, memories, and contact. Its homepage identifies Bokan as Ethiopia’s only Attorney-General under the stated description, a drafter of the OAU Charter, and a former Derg prisoner. Addis Ababa and Holy Trinity Cathedral provide a specific geographic setting, while the family framing—“our father and grandfather”—makes the archive personal as well as historical.
