Genneta Maryam, Lasta
Hewn during the reign of King Yikuno Amlak (1270β85), this church has some of the oldest frescoes in Ethiopia, thought to date to the late 13th century. Its prolific art includes Ethiopiaβs oldest surviving Old Testament scenes and images of saints, as well as New Testament themes. This photograph shows the churchβs saddleback roof, decorated with a frieze of four low-relief blind arches framing a plain cross.
