Jin Asgad

Jin Asgad was later remembered as the fourth son of Emperor Yagbe'u Seyon and the fourth of five brothers to rule Ethiopia in the troubled years after 1294. He reigned as Negusä Nägäst from 1297 to 1298.

A tradition recorded by E. A. Wallis Budge credits him with first using Amba Geshen as a royal mountain prison: he confined his treacherous brother Saba Asgad there, along with his other brothers and his own sons. In 1299 Wedem Arad seized the throne and ended the brothers' succession.
