These thirty-five sovereigns at the time of Akapta Tsenfa Arad (ed.: From A.D. 30 to A.D. 38) had been christianised by the Apostle Saint Matthew. There were few men who did not believe, for they had heard the words of the gospel. After this Jen Daraba, favourite of the Queen of Ethiopia, Garsemat Kandake (ed.: From A.D. 40 to A.D. 50), crowned by Gabre Hawariat Kandake, had made a pilgrimage to Jerusalem according to the Law of Orit (the ancient law), and on his return Phillip the Apostle taught him the gospel, and after he had made him believe the truth he sent him back, baptising him in the name of the Trinity. The latter (the Queen’s favourite), on his return to his country, taught by word of mouth the coming of our Saviour Jesus Christ and baptised them. Those who were baptised, not having found an Apostle to teach them the Gospel, had been living offering sacrifices to God according to the ancient prescription and the Jewish Law.

[Thus concludes the List of Ethiopian Kings forwarded by H.I.H. Ras Makonnen, now H.I.M. Emperor Haile Selassie I]

XII. SOVEREIGNS OF ETHIOPIA SUBSEQUENT TO THE FOREGOING LIST

Although the list given me by the Regent concludes in the year given as EC 1779, I have thought it desirable to bring the tale up to date, and have completed the following list from various sources.

In this connection it should be noted that for some fifty years prior to the reign of the last king mentioned in the foregoing list (i.e. since about 1730 up to the advent of Theodore in 1855) the kings had exercised no real power, and had been murdered, deposed, restored and driven out again, or treated as nonentities by anyone of the great Rases of semi-independent kings who were strong enough to maintain themselves against their rivals, such as, for example, Ras Kikael Suhul of Tigre (1730-80), Ras Guksa of Amhara, a Galla (1790-1819), and the son (Ras Marye) and grandson (Ras Ali) of the latter.

In 1813, indeed, no less than six nominal “Kings of Kings of Ethiopia” were all alive, having been successively turned out of office by others.

The names of all these kings (who were actually raised to the throne) are, however, given below in order to maintain continuity, together with the dates (according to the western calendar) of their chequered reigns:

Yasus 1784-88
Takla Haymanot 1788-89
Iskias 1789-95
Baeda Maryam 1795- 97
Junus 1797
Adimo 1797-99
Egwala Sion 1799-1818
Joas 1818-21
Gigar 1821-26
Baeda Maryam III 1826
Gigar (again) 1826-30
Iyasu IV 1830-32
Gabra Kristos 1832
Sahala Dengel 1832-40
Johannes III 1840-41
Sahala Dengel (again) 1841-55

From this period dates the re-establishment of the empire, and the rapid extension of the powers of its sovereigns. From then until to-day they are:

  1. I am from the United State of America and I sure do appreciate this list of Kings and Queens of Ethiopia. Eygpt takes all the credit in Africa, but I don’t see how. People here are tired of Eypt and want to hear about other coutries in Africa, especially Ethiopia. The way I see it, Ethiopia is the Holy country for Africa; the Bible history.

  2. There is a big misunderstanding, Ethiopia is an old greek word which means the land of the shining sun and it was called to the land south of eygpt which is now sudan land of kingdom kush which was a sudanese kindom which ruled eygpt and its power reached the country now called Ethiopia kush kings were never habesha please do not mislead people

    1. just a correction on the Greek word meaning of Ethiopia which comes from the word ( dark.- face ( aithali opsi ) Aithi – ops, Aithiopia as A and i ( Ai ) together are read as E and according to sources of historians with evidences kush or Cush were Oromos related to ancient Egypt who were spread to south up to Kenya and probably further including eastern Sudan!

      1. there is only one Ethiopia. kethiopia wichi yehone oromo anaweqeme zeregnente yelelebate ethiopia yoromo, yamara ,yhulume nate!!! ma friend OROMIYYAA

    2. sorry for my late 8 years after but

      the Word Ethiopia Is Not Originally from greek it is from ge’ez yitobes meaning he can over rule others it was given for Ethiopis 1.
      another proof greek civilization was late ethiopia is earlier than greek.
      i think greeks take the name ethiopia from ethiopians

  3. Aram, is the son of Shem. Elam is the son of Shem. Have you heard about the city of Aad(near gulf of Aden/Eden), & Iram(or Aram) of the pillars?

    Aad is in the are now known as Oman. It is only mentioned in the Quran. It states that these descendents of Shem built the Pyramids in Egypt.

    When they refer to Abyssians (Current Day Ethioipians) as Kushites don’t take it literally as them being the children of Ham.

    The Somalis & Sudanese are pure Cushites, & you can tell the difference between an Ethiopian & a Somali( the facial features are a dead giveaway)

    The Egyptians were a Combination of both Semites & Cushites. The Language of Ancient Egypt is Amharic & Tigrinya. these can be found in the crypts of Egypt.

    1. Thank you @Dingane Walker. That is a deep deep History of Ethiopia & Amharic Language

  4. DEAR ADMINISTRATORS OF THIS WEBSITE, Can you change this into Table? The List of Kings doesn’t also included the Nubian, Meroetic and Indian statses. It doesn’t also included the Southern Tips and Western African Civilization in which Ethiopia REIGNED. Thank you, any way!

  5. It is an interesting description. But what is the source about the kings before the Aksumite dynasty. I know Ethiopian history very well because each kings had written their history as chronicles by their scribes since the Aksumite time by the only our written language in Africa . And still it is found in z old churches and monasteries of the country. From ori or aram upto Sofia where is the source
