Hello, Thats rather nice,Menelik was fighting to unify the country,perhaps it is a weapon from an opposing war lord.It is most unlikly to be aluminimun as up untill ww1 world prodution was still in relativly low thousands of Tons.It may possibly be used as an exspence exotic metal.I have recently rekindled my interest in the horn of Africa.I will post pics of some of my examples.Tim
