Ecological niche modelling as a tool to identify candidate indigenous chicken ecotypes of Tigray (Ethiopia)
The Tigray region is an ancient entry route for the domestic chickens into Africa. The oldest African chicken bones were found in this region at Mezber, a pre-Aksumite rural farming settlement. They were dated to around 800–400 BCE. Since then, the farming communities of the region have integrated c...
