An ethnobothanical study was carried out to document information on the use of medicinal plants byrnthe Minjar Shenkora Wereda People. The main method of study was semi-structured interview andrndiscussion with informants from among Minjarsâ€™ elders and healers. A total of 118 plants speciesrnbelonging to 53 families were identified for their medicinal value. Forty-eight species (40.67%) werernshrubs, 46 species (38.98%) were herbs and 16 species (13.55%) were trees. Very few climbers (8rnspecies; 6.77%) are used in the local traditional medical practices. The result shows plant speciesrnbelonging to the families Astraceae and Lamiaceae are most used. A total of 75 plant species are usedrnfor treatment of human ailments and 18 species are used for treatment of cattle diseases and 25 speciesrnare used for treatment of both human and veterinary diseases. About 54% of the reported medicinalrnplants are taken orally. Most of the plant species are wild, which is 90 plant species (76.27%) and 25rnplant species (21.18%) are cultivated, and 3 species (2.54%) are both in the wild and in cultivate whichrnindicates that local people have little practice of bringing medicinal plants under cultivation. Thernprepared traditional drugs are administered through different routes of administration. The majorrnroutes of administration in the study area include; oral, dermal, nasal, anal, and ocular.Oralrnadministration is the dominante route (54.21%) followed by dermal route (28.91%) in which liqudernforms, smashed, jused, powdered forms; exudate forms are recorded methods of preparationrntechniques. Some of the medicinal plant species documented from the study area have multiple usesrnsuch as fuel wood which contains the highest value (44.26 % )followed by construction, and thus mostrnof these plants are found under threats. The threats of medicinal plant species is also one and the mainrnreason to the loss of the associated knowledge.rnKey words: Indigenous knowledge, Medicinal plants, Minjar.
