Sada Mire

[5][6] After this traumatic experience, in 1991, she fled Somalia with her mother and siblings on a relative's lorry during the Somali Civil War.

Mire and her identical twin, Sohur, emigrated to Sweden where an older sister lived and received asylum.

[13] Mire, leading a team of 50 helpers, has discovered prehistoric rock art in Somaliland at almost 100 sites; at least 10 of these are likely to receive World Heritage status.

The Dhambalin site, which is located approximately 40 miles (64 km) from the Red Sea, contains rock art in sandstone shelters, which are inferred as about 5,000 years old, of horned cattle, sheep, and goats, as well as giraffes, which no longer exist in Somaliland.

Mire has run national and international media campaigns to fight the looting and destruction of Somali archeological sites.

[23] Mire discussed the misuse of archaeology for politics and intentional destruction of heritage sites by ideological groups for example India.

[33] She was a speaker at the Europe Lecture and an "eminent" respondent to UNESCO Director General Irina Bokova, June 2016.

"[35] Mire was a speaker at the Swedish National Heritage Board[36] and on BBC World Service radio documentary "Stories on the Rocks", December 2018.

The CNN African Voices Program featured the sisters in their professional environment, as an archeologist and a medical doctor giving back to their community and working in their homeland, Somalia.

For National Geographic's Don't Tell my Mother I'm in Somalia episode, presenter Diego Buñuel met up with Mire in her office in Hargeisa and with her visited some of the landmarks of Somaliland.

Brazil's Futura (TV Channel) aired in 2014 a documentary titled Sada and Somaliland, following her progress as the country's only Somali archeologist.
