Yolyos
Yolyos (Ge'ez: ዮልዮስ "yōlyōs", "Julius") was an early 17th-century Ethiopian noble. He was appointed by Emperor Susenyos as governor of Ifat and Shewa, taking the traditional Ifat title of Walashma. According to Pedro Páez he took part in several attempts to overthrow Susenyos. When Susenyos sentenced him to death for his part in these rebellions, Yolyos's wife, the daughter of Susenyos, begged her father for clemency. Yolyos was pardoned. His headquarters in Ifat was on an "amba", a natural flat-topped mountain fortress, at Gefegef, which he used to defend against nearby Muslims of Qecheno. Yolyos Yolyos
