Ousanas
Ousanas (fl. 320) was a King of Axum. S. C. Munro-Hay believes that it is "very likely" that Ousanas is the king to whom Aedesius and Frumentius were brought. In Ethiopian tradition, this king is called Ella Allada or Ella Amida.〔S. C. Munro-Hay, ''Aksum: An African Civilization of Late Antiquity'' (Edinburgh: University Press, 1991), p.77. ((Online text ).)〕 ''Ella Amida'' would then be his throne name, although ''Ousanas'' is the name that appears on his coins. If this identification is correct, then it was during his reign that Christianity was introduced to Axum and the surrounding territories.
W.R.O. Hahn, in a study published in 1983, identifies Sembrouthes, who is known only from an inscription found in Daqqi Mahari in modern Eritrea, with Ousanas. If correct, this would give Ousanas a reign of at least 27 years.〔As cited in Munro-Hay, ''Excavations at Axum'' (London: British Institute in Eastern Africa, 1989), p. 22.〕
Coins with the name of this ruler were found in the late 1990s at archaeological sites in India.〔Details in Paul B. Henze, ''Layers of Time: A History of Ethiopia'' (New York: Palgrave, 2000), p. 31 n.18.〕
