摘要

Sometime in the period from 1936 to 1939, the new Italian overlords of the Adigrat regional governorate, in the newly formed Africa Orientale Italiana, identified several old churches among the hundreds dotting the Tigrayan highlands in present-day Ethiopia.1 Chosen by the new government for their relative accessibility or their esteemed religious or historical status, these buildings were determined worthy of restoration. As work on the churches began in 1939, the Fascist regional governor Dr. Giuseppe Barbate wrote: Work is under way as reported in the dossiers of the previous months. Within days, the restoration of two important convents of the circoscrizione [Adigrat regional governorate] will be begun by the local Section OO.PP. [Public Works Department], namely, the Gunde Gunde convent (in the Sease district) and Enda Abreha Azbeha [monastery of Abreha wa-Atsbeha] (in the Aiba Ghemad district). The importance of the two convents [and] the interest of the government [in these monuments] has aroused a very favorable impression. Just who was so impressed is unclear, but it might very well have been the native Tigrayan populace. Indeed, this northern Ethiopian ethnic group was accustomed to second-class status under the Amhara-focused policies of the former sovereign, Haile Selassie, and his predecessors. In "New Eritrea," as it was then known, the Italian colonizers aimed to give their subjects certain privileges, including infrastructural improvements and new and refurbished places of worship.
