Overview{{main article|Adal Sultanate|Somali aristocratic and court titles}}Abasa is situated about 25 km to the north of Borama as the crow flies[1] on the road from Zeila. It is the most impressive of the ruins around Borama. A large town, it features numerous ruined structures stretching over a wide area. The buildings were built in a rectangular style, and the now ruined Abasa Mosque has large columns of two different types: cylindrical and cruciform. 14th to 16th century Islamic pottery and Chinese sherds have also been found here, which are believed to be relics from the Adal Sultanate's commercial activities.[2] DemographicsThe region around the ancient town is inhabited by the Reer Ahamed branch of the Jibriil Yoonis, a subclan of the Gadabuursi Dir clan.[3] See also
