A graph homomorphism is a mapping between two graphs that respect their structure. In this paper we develop some results related to digraph homomorphisms for the class of \({\overrightarrow{Z_n}}^{-}\)-digraphs. We will begin by giving some standard definitions, then expanding our focus to specifically study different types of digraph homomorphisms. In particular we will be discussing the idea of automorphism, isomorphism, weak homomorphism and its relation with the corresponding group homomorphisms defined on \(Z_n\).
