- WUKRO CHERKOS
The northern edge of Wukro town holds a rock-hewn church called Wukro Cherkos is a semi-monolithic church whose side walls, front wall and roof are completely separated and projecting from the Main rock. It is attached to the rock only on its floor and at its back wall. The church is believed to have been carved during the fourth century. Internal architecture and art works, rectangular carved columns of quartz — rich sandstone, supporting arches and curved ceilings decorated by similar designs characterise this church. The presence of a sand stone slab with inscriptions of the Aksumite type in the vicinity of the church may also support the claim that the church dates back to Aksumite period.
