The map
Mot’a is in the East Gojjam zone of Ethiopia's Amhara region, on the high plateau north of the Blue Nile, known locally as the Abay. The land here is at high altitude and heavily farmed. On the map, the town is a cluster of streets around its centre, with roads leading out across a landscape of fields, streams and scattered homesteads.
It serves as a local centre for the surrounding rural area, with a market and administrative functions. Beyond the plateau, the ground drops toward the gorges of the Abay, one of the most dramatic landscapes in the region, though these lie outside the immediate area of the town.
The map is simple and open. A Mot’a map poster shows the compact town, the roads that link it with other Gojjam towns and the fine lines of streams across the farmland. It is an unusual print that reflects the character of the Ethiopian highlands.

Fields and homesteads cover the plateau around the town. On the poster this appears as open space crossed by small tracks and streams.
Roads lead out from Mot’a to other towns in Gojjam. They are the main lines crossing the highland and connect the town with the wider region.
