Takla Maryam (Ge'ez: ተክለ ማርያም), throne name Hezbe Nañ (Ge'ez: ሕዝበ ናኝ) was Emperor of Ethiopia from 1430 to 1433, and a member of the Solomonic dynasty. He was the third son of Dawit I.[2]
Manoel de Almeida remarks that the descendants of Takla Maryam had been taken from Amba Geshen by Emperor Zara Yaqob and "exiled to hot lands where there are many diseases"; when his son Emperor Baeda Maryam I, early in his reign, attempted to redress this injury by recalling them from exile, they slew his messengers. Although Baeda Maryam I promptly took punitive measures (which included decapitating 80 of their members), in de Almeida's day they were "still rigorously watched".[3]
