Talk:Medri Bahri - Knowledge

859:. The post "Bahri Negash" is said to have been created by Zera Yaqob himself. Prior to Zera Yaqob the region was known by its local Eritrean name: Mekelle Bahri, such as when it was conquered by Amde Seyon I after his northern campaigns and put under the rule of his son. The Zagwe are said to have controlled land stretching into the Eritrean highlands prior to that and the history of the land known as "Mekelle Bahri" after the fall of Axum is it being under the rule of Beja invaders from Sudan who attacked the weakening Axumite state after Dahlak and Aduls were invaded by the Umayyad Caliphate due to Axumite Pirates attacking Medina. These arabized Bejas, known as the Belew, established several kingdoms and their lineages and place names are preserved in modern western Eritrea to this day. During this Beja expansion the Beni Amir (Banu Amir or in Arabic: Sons of Amir) assimilated large amounts of Tigre speaking people which led to the modern pan-Beja-Tigre ethnic identity in eastern Eritrea. all sources are in my revision and I will get back to whoever wants it about the Arab sack of Adulis and conquest Dahlak where the famous Hadith stating to not attack al-habash was created. Likewise, I don't feel its accurate to state that the Kingdom of Italy wasn't a successor of the Medri Bahri despite the fact that Woldemichael Solomon was deposed by his previous overlord Ras Alula. 1644: 1471: 939:

I noticed you have attempted to "Adalize" the history of the Malassay and Garad, despite both existing prior to Adal as a state and having their roots in multiple cultures that don't have anything to do with it. That is all. You have not, in this response, rebutted anything in my main post, only deflected about Adal (which has nothing to do with the Medri Bahri's history and the topic at hand). Stop reverting now. If you have a problem with anything stating Adal didn't hold the costal regions of modern day Eritrea you can revert that alone! This is just like the

Not a single source on the page mentions the Medri Bahri as having been an independent kingdom in modern day Eritrea until the defeat of the rebellious Bahri Negus Yeshaq in 1578, where the region was stripped of its banner and war drums, effectively making it no longer part of the Ethiopian Empire. The terms "Medri Bahri" and "Bahri Negash" are first attested to during the reign of Zera Yaqob as both are 1208:

source you cited never said that the kingdom last until 1878 or 1770? It even calls the the Bahr Nagash a "governor", so how exactly does this prove your point here? The established fact is that the lands of the Bahr Negash was incorporated into Tigray province after the rebellion of Bahr Negus Yishaq. And even prior to that it was still a province of the Ethiopian Empire. I already gave you a number of high quality sources from

this. However in the article itself you made the ridiculous claim that this kingdom was "at times considered a separate entity from the Ethiopian Empire" which is completely preposterous. Another claim you made was that the kingdom lasted until 1878, again unsourced, the truth is that this kingdom/province lost its autonomy after the rebellion of the Bahr Negash Yishaq.

The Kingdom of Medir Bahri (not the region which is what your sources are clearly referring to) did not exist during the 19th century. We know this because the post of the Bahr Negash (which ruled the kingdom) did not exist when the Italians and Egyptians arrived in the region. The Bahr Negash lost
