What was the official religion of Axum in Africa?

Answer 1

They were descendants of the Hebrews, but were polytheistic and believed in nature gods, then in the 4th century C.E. they adopted a sect of Christianity called Coptic from the Egyptians. In later centuries there was a large expansion of Islam through the area, but they retained Christian beliefes

Answer 2

Kingdom of Axum existed between 100 and 960 ACE. About 324 Axum converted to Christianity as a first major kingdom in the world. Before Christianity Axum was polytheistic, they had a main god Astar and his son Mahrem, who was supposedly the first ancestor of Aksumite kings, etc.

Answer 3

Axum (or Aksum) is the traditional capitol of Aksumite Kingdom, which later became known as Abyssinia or Ethiopia. The Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church was the state religion (or established religion or "official religion") of Ethiopia before the fall of Emperor Haile Selassie in the Revolution of 1974. "Tewahedo" means "unified" in English.) One of the titles of the Patriarch (or head) of the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church is "Archbishop of Axum."

The Ethiopian Orthodox Church, despite the inclusion of the word "Orthodox" in its name, is not related to the larger Orthodox Communion (including the Greek, Russian, Serbian, etc. Orthodox Churches). Rather, the Ethiopian Orthodox Church is an Oriental Orthodox Church, which is in communion with the Coptic Orthodox Church, the Syrian Orthodox Church, and others.
