About this ebook
The letters of Qostantinos I (Zar'a Ya'qob) detail his numerous grants of land and fiefs to the cathedral of Aksum and various religious figures, made in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Each letter emphasizes the spiritual significance of these donations, particularly in commemoration of the Virgin Mary and other saints. The king issues stern warnings and curses against anyone who would violate these agreements, asserting his authority and dedication to the church. The letters also outline provisions for the maintenance of monasteries and the welfare of monks, reflecting the intertwining of governance and religious duty.
