Gudit was a queen that sacked and destroyed Axum so it's quite an ironical name. Here in the field there are examples of older stellae that were still rough without any masonry nor polishing except for 1 which is polished and then there are remains of a large obelisk that was probably transported and left here.

(Translated by Google) Completely abandoned, it is located in the middle of some cultivated fields, although it is opposite the palace of the Queen of Sheba and is easy to get to.
