From Warlike

Q124220901




The Battle of Yedaya was a military engagement fought between the Ethiopian Empire and the Adal Empire. The Adalite army was victorious and the Ethiopian king was captured and killed, according to Richard Pankhurst. However, many historians such as Mohammed Hassen, J. Spencer Trimingham, E.A. Wallis Budge and Taddesse Tamrat put the end of Dawit's reign at 1411-1412, a decade before the supposed battle takes place.
