Christian monasticism in Ethiopia
text:
Christian monasticism in Ethiopia has been practiced since the Aksumite era in the 6th century AD. The Nine Saints, who came from the Byzantine Empire, played a crucial role in the development of monasticism in Ethiopia, which continued during the Zagwe and Solomonic periods. Debre Libanos and Debre Damo are some of the best-known monasteries in Ethiopia. Monasteries often have the titles of Debre ("church") and Gedam ("monastery").
