A Tukul (also spelled "Tekul") is a type of round home found in Ethiopia, Eritrea, Sudan, South Sudan and other parts of East Africa.[1]

A tukul was the emblem of Ethiopia's former Southern Nations, Nationalities, and Peoples' Region, and has been the emblem of the Central Ethiopia Regional State since 2013, as a symbol of local culture.
