The above JSTOR article was written in 2007, and is titled Women in the Menstruation Huts: Variations in Preserving Purification Customs among Ethiopian Immigrants. The article explains the Jewish customs for women in Ethiopia in terms of menstruation huts (margam gojo). The article goes on to explain how women immigrants from Ethiopia to Israel, attempt to hold onto menstruation huts in their new way of life. This article is a recently published article that was written in the Journal of Feminist Studies in Religion, which is a journal from Indiana University. I used this article to help explain why Ethiopian women value the use of margam gojo, and to give a better background of what they are in Ethiopia.

The name of the article is titled Health Behaviors over the Life Cycle among Mothers and Daughters from Ethiopia. This article explains how information of puberty, menstruation, childbirth and other topics differ in obtaining the knowledge between mothers and daughters.
