  Visitato un paio di volte. Simbolo alla memoria dell'epoca coloniale italiana in questo paese.Non ho gradito la divisione delle tombe in Italiani ed Ascari, (coloro che furono un vero e proprio esercito di Eritrei sotto il comando italiano). Tra l'altro, con la parte italiana sempre ben curata e quella degli Ascari mantenuta in modo approssimativo. Ma Totò all'epoca non aveva ancora scritto " 'A Livella" . Purtroppo .

  Visited a couple of times. Symbol of the memory of the Italian colonial era in this country. I did not like the division of graves into Italians and Ascari, (those who were a real army of Eritreans under Italian command). By the way, with the Italian part always well cared for and that of the Ascari maintained in an approximate way. But Toto had not yet written "A Level" at the time. Unfortunately.
