| description | The tombs of two kings of the Zagwe dynasty, Yemrehanna Krestos and Lālibalā, are said to be located in churches that they founded. However this information does not figure in the first texts written about these Ethiopian saint-kings.

What processes led to identifying the location of these tombs and considering them to be the graves of saints, and no longer of kings? The tombs of these two kings have become places where pilgrims request these saints to intercede on their behalf. |
