AGREEMENT Relative to the frontier between the Anglo-Egyptian Sudan and Eritrea signed at Sabdarat, 1st June, 1899
 
From the point of junction of the Ambacta with the Baraka the line of frontier follows the course of the latter (Baraka) up stream to its junction with the Dada (Khasm Dada), and then, turning in a northwesterly direction, follows the Dada throughout its course to ita source at the foot of the Eskenie range of hills. The line now turns southwards and follows the watershed between the streams flowing directly to the Baraka on the east and those flowing to the Gash and Langueb on the west. This watershed is defined by the Eskenie, Koreb, and Ta-et (Taiye) ranges of hills, by Jebel Mees;at, and finally by Jebel Beneifer. From J. Beneifer the line of frontier passes in almost a direct line to the Sabderat range, being defined soutlx of Beneifer by the low hill Tedelaie, by Jebel Afada-Gumbit, by the hills Gelmabia and Dobadub, and finally by the peak called Deberenis, on the Sabderat range. From Deberenis the line crosses the Sabderat range by J. Eunice to the peak called Quasana, and thence crosses Khor Sabderat to a point west-northwest on the range south of the Khor. This point has been marked by a pilar.
