In the first century AD Eritrea and much of Ethiopia were the kingdom of Axum. Christianity was introduced by Saint Frumentius, a Syro-Phoenician Greek from
Tyre. He was asked by kingOusanas
to educate his son Ezana. Ezana converted to Christianity. Another Axumite king, Kaleb, was asked by the Roman Emperor Justin I to intervene in Yemen, where a Jewish king, Dhu Nuwas, was slaughtering Christians there. Kaleb invaded Yemen, which came under the Axumite kingdom.
