Dimtu

Dimtu () or Wolaita Dimtu () or Bilate Tena () is a city administrator in Wolayita Zone, South Ethiopia Region. It has an elevation between 1,000 and 1,600 metres above sea level. It was part of the former Damot Weyde (Woreda) of Wolayita Zone, near to Sodo Zuria woreda. It was also under the Diguna Fango woreda. Some writers mention the town as Bilate Tena in their books and journals. Among them, Getahun Garedew, former Head Officer in Education Bureau of Southern Nations, Nationalities, and Peoples' Region, and State Minister of Ministry of Education since 2020, is the anterior. In the book "Local Adaptation Practices in Response to Climate Change in the Bilate River Basin, Southern Ethiopia", he used these two names, Dimtu and Bilate Tena, in a similar way.

== History == David Buxton stated in his book that Dimtu was the name of a market, and it was near the Bilate River. As unwritten source reveals that the name was derived from the word "Dantto", which in Wolaytta language means the junction. It was named so because the market is located, where Bilate River and the "Qocuwaa" river, which is from Dimtu, meet.
