Limo (also spelled
Lemo) is one of the
woredas in the
Southern Nations, Nationalities, and Peoples' Region of
Ethiopia. The relationship of the name of this woreda to that of the medieval kingdom in the
Gibe region is unclear. A part of the
Hadiya Zone, Limo is bordered on the south by the
Kembata Tembaro Zone, on the southwest by
Duna and
Soro, on the west by
Gomibora, on the northwest by
Misha, on the northeast by
Ana Lemo, and on the southeast by
Shashogo. Towns in Lemo include Belesa and
Lisana. The town of
Hosaena is surrounded by Limo. Parts of Limo woreda were separated to create Ana Lemo, Hosaena,
Mirab Azernet Berbere and
Misraq Azernet Berbere woredas.
