The second Rock of the Royal family of Gonder
 

Emperor Tewodros relates with the second Rock of the Roayl family with the daughter of Rase Menekiyous. Her name is Lehlet Mariamawit. She is a princess. Lehlet Mariamawit married Azaje (the Grandson of Emperor Zara Yaqob) and they had the following children.

1. Mami

2. Deyane

3. Necho (The white one)

Necho is known as the the father of Dembiya. Dembiya is a province in North Gonder. Necho is the father of Bidrse. Bidrse is the father of Legase and Legase is the father of Dejazmatch Maru. Necho had also an other son from a woman named Takusa Mareta. His name is Wolde Giorgis. Dejazmatch Wolde Giorgis is the Grandfather of EmperorTewodros. Emperor Tewodros birth name was Kassa. His father is Fite Awurari Haielu. And his son is Prince Alemayehu.





I am Andinet Yigzaw Taye . My father was a Policeman and a soldier. I was born in Gaynet and raised in Debretabor. Debretabor is the capital city of Emperor Tewodros and Gaynet is the land of fearless warriors. Fite Awurari Gebreye is the son of Gaynet. He was the highest ranked warlord of Emperor Tewodros by whom he was loved dearly. The other fearless warrior of Gaynet is my father Yigzaw Taye.

The Derge Government chose my father to fight Edihu rebels . While fighting Kegne Azematch Berela, one of the top leaders of the rebels, my father lost two of his bothers. He revenged the death of two of his brothers by slaying the neck of the rebels' Leader .

Like the way the Durbush slayed the Neck of Emperor Yohannis IV and carried his Neck. My father Yigzaw also slayed and carried the Neck of Kegne Azematch Berela in the streets of Semada as a sign of victory .

My father was killed while he was fighting Ehapa (an other rebel group). He was shot by a rebel who ambushed on tree. I was a little child at the time. And so I was raised by a step - father and known as Andinet Demisie.

My mother is Fikra Kassawu. Her Garndfather Kegne Azematch Ayele Alitah lived in South Gonder. The Grandfather of Kegne Azematch Ayele is the well known warlord of Dembiya Dejazmatch Maru. Dejazmatch Maru is related with Dejazmatch Wolde Giorgis. Dejazmatch Wolde Giorgis is the Grandfather of Emperor Tewodros.

Thus I claim a link to the Royal family of Gonder through my Mother.

The Prophecy of Tewodros

In Gonder there is a prophecy that a great King named Tewodros will rule Abesha for 40 years. In 1853 Meyesaw Kassa claimed he is the one who fulfilled the Prophecy. He took the name Tewodros and crowned as Emperor Tewodros II.

The name Meyesaw is part of the prophecy. Meyesaw means in Amharic the one who pulls others back. Emperor Tewodros II also adapted the name Meyesaw to fulfill the prophecy.

Tewodros means a gift of God . And the 40 years in the prophecy of my Tribe are symbols for Enlightenment.

With the grace of God I achieved that ideal goal at the age of 28 as an Enlightened poet.

Thus I claim I am a poet who fulfilled the prophecy of Tewodros. Because a true Poet in a true sense means a King and an Emperor.
