In this paper, “urban” formation manifested in Mekelle, the “palace city” developed since the late 19th century, is analyzed in relation to the traditional settlement techniques of the targeted region spanning from Tigray (northern Ethiopian region) to adjacent Eritrean highland. Through the analysis, it became clear that topography was the essential factor for settlement site selection, and that there was a preferable layout for these settlements in the targeted region. While Mekelle also basically applied similar techniques, several distinctions, such as existence of a strategic network of hillside and flatland settlements and formation of street concept, can be also found.
