Publisher's Synopsis
The ancient Kebra Nagast is considered a holy book, not only by Orthodox Ethiopian Christians, but by millions of Rastafarians around the world as well. The text traces the origins of the Ethiopian monarchs back to King Solomon of Israel, and tells the story of his relationship with the Queen of Sheba. It also describes how their son, Menelik I, returned to Ethiopia with the Ark of the Covenant. This Spanish translation provides a fascinating look into the culture and religion of Ethiopia as well as the secretive beliefs of the Rastafarians.
