Amda Iyasus (Ge'ez ዓምደ ኢየሱስ ʿāmda iyasus, "Pillar of Jesus," Amh. made iyesus) was nəgusä nägäst (throne name Badel Nan በድል ናኝ badil nāñ; 1433–1434) of Ethiopia, and a member of the Solomonic dynasty. He was the younger son of Takla Maryam.
E. A. Wallis Budge notes that Amda Iyasus ruled for eight months, and left no issue. "The Chronicles supply no information about his acts, and the rapid succession of occupants of the throne of the Nagashi puzzled even Makrizi."[1]
