Jim, you nailed me, I do not know how does Omani ters look like. Nevertheless this should be really Ethiopian.

I think Omani Arabs used to travel more to Zanzibar or East African coast.

But, on the other side, Kingdom of Sheba was allegedly situated both on Arab Peninsula and Eritrea/northern Ethiopia, also Aksum had good contacts with Arabic peninsula (if I am not mistaken) and more recently - Ethiopian chiefs were nearly in permanent wars with they muslim neighbours, e.g. with small Harar (not Harare) kingdom. I think they could influence each other
