The present study was conducted on six abomasums in sheep. The epithelium were changed from stratified squamous to simple tall columnar in the cardiac region at apex of mucosal fold. The glandular epithelium of abomasums were divided into three zones as cardiac, fundic and pyloric region. The network of fibers were observed in the lamina propria and consisted with collagen elastic and reticular fibers embedded with numerous blood vessels and capillaries in the submucosa of abomosum.
