Yohannes II
Yohannes II or John II (Ge'ez ዮሓንስ), (1699 – 18 October 1769) was "nəgusä nägäst" of Ethiopia, and a member of the Solomonic dynasty.
He was the son of Iyasu I, and brother of Emperors Tekle
Haymanot I, Dawit III and Bakaffa.
According to James Bruce, during the reign of his brother Bakaffa (1721-1730), the Emperor had vanished from view and a rumor circulated that Bakaffa had died.
Qegnazmach Giyorgis acted on this by bringing Yohannes down from the royal prison on Wehni to rule, but before Yohannes could be proclaimed emperor, Bakaffa revealed himself and ordered the two men punished for their presumption, Giyorgis with death and Yohannes by having his hand cut off.
However, in his edition of Bruce's work Alexander Murray replaced Bruce's words with a summary of the "Royal Chronicle", which records Yohannes had lost his hand for escaping from Wehni prior to this event, and instead, along with the other royal prisoners of Wehni, had refused to descend and be made Emperor.
In either case, Yohannes did not become emperor during the 1720s or 1730s.
Then, later, following the murder of Iyoas I in 1769, Ras Mikael Sehul summoned the late Emperor's great-uncle, Yohannes, from Wehni, although Yohannes must then have been in his seventies at least, and presented him to the royal council as his choice for Emperor.
When one of the council pointed out that Yohannes lacked one of his hands (it had been cut off in punishment for attempting to escape from Wehni), Mikael replied that if Yohannes needed help mounting his horse, he himself would help Yohannes.
Mikael married Yohannes to Mikael's own young granddaughter, Waletta Selassie.
Yohannes' reign is succinctly recounted by E. A. Wallis Budge:
Iyasu I
Iyasu I (or Joshua I, Ge'ez: ኢያሱ ፩), also known as Iyasu the Great, was "nəgusä nägäst"
(throne name Adyam Sagad, Ge'ez: አድያም ሰገድ, "to whom the confines of the earth bow"), (1654 – 13 October 1706)
r. 19 July 1682 – 13 October 1706 of Ethiopia, and a member of the Solomonic dynasty.
He was the son of Yohannes
I and Empress Sabla Wangel.
According to G.W.B Huntingford, Iyasu "owed his reputation partly to the mildness of his character, exemplified in his treatment of the princes on Wehni in his first year, and his attention to religious matters, and partly to his abdication, retirement, and murder."
He was serving as governor of Gojjam when his father Yohannes summoned him and made him heir at the age of 20.
(However, he did not have himself crowned until 1693.)
During the first year of his reign, he attended to his brothers and other relatives imprisoned on Wehni, a moment recorded by James Bruce who describes how the Emperor replaced their rags with proper clothing and furnished the starving royals with a banquet.
