| Sumario: | From the earliest days of Christianity, Jerusalem was the main destination for Christian pilgrimages. Those that left from the western countries are well known today due to the considerable abundance of pilgrim tales. However, for geographical, political and linguistic reasons, Ethiopian Christians carried out in the Holy Land during the Middle Ages and early modern times are little known. For this reason, an exceptional importance should be given to the story of Francisco Alvares that was spread throughout Europe about the fortune of two pilgrimages that were heading to Jerusalem from the country of Preste Juan. This story is an incomparable testimony to the political, military and religious tensions that occurred in the Red Sea environment at the beginning of the 16th century. |
