In about 1621 crucial figures in the Ethiopian Solomonid monarchy, including King Susenyos, were converted to Catholicism and up to 1632 imposing missionary churches, residences and royal structures were built. This book studies for the first time in a comprehensive form the missionary architecture built by the joint work of Jesuit padres, Ethiopian and Indian masons and royal Ethiopian patrons. The work gives ample archaeological, architectonic and historical descriptions of the ten extant sites known to the date and includes hypotheses on hitherto unexplored or lesser known structures. 651 0 $a Ethiopia $x Antiquities. 650 0 $a Excavations (Archaeology) $z Ethiopia. 650 0 $a Jesuit architecture $z Ethiopia. 650 0 $a Jesuits $x History. $z Ethiopia $x History. 700 1 $a Fernandez, Victor M. $q (Victor Manuel), $d 1962- $e author. 776 08 $i Online version: $t Archaeology of the Jesuit missions in Ethiopia (1557-1632) $d Boston : Brill, [2017] $z 9789004324695 $w (DLC) 2017043063 830 0 $a Jesuit studies (Leiden, Netherlands) ; $v v. 10. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191211022754.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9511EE16E7B011E78369235E97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
