Frumentius (äthiopisch Ferēmenāṭos; * in Tyros, Syrien/Libanon; † um 383) war erster Bischof von Axum und gilt als Apostel des Aksumitischen Reiches, Heiliger und Gründer der Äthiopischen Kirche. Rufinus zitiert Frumentius’ Bruder Aedesius, wie sie als Kinder (um 316) ihren Onkel Meropius in das Aksumitische Reich begleiteten. Ihr Schiff wurde im Roten Meer überfallen und die Besatzung getötet, die Knaben dem König von Aksum als Sklaven verkauft. Die beiden Jungen erwarben das Vertrauen des Königs, der Aedesius als Mundschenk und Frumentius als Schatzmeister einsetzte und ihnen vor seinem Tod die Freiheit schenkte. Mehr auf Wikipedia lesen
