Menas banishes the Jesuit bishop André de …

Years: 1560 - 1560

Menas banishes the Jesuit bishop André de Oviedo and his companions to a village between Axum and Adwa, located in the modern Tigray Regio, called Maigoga ('noisy water') because of the two rocky streams that run through the community.Te Jesuits optimistically rename the village Fremona, after the missionary Frumentius, who had converted the Axumite kings to Christianity.
