Enderta

Enderta was a province on the eastern edge of the Ethiopian highlands, ruled by hereditary governors from Hintalo. Emperor Amda Seyon suppressed a rebellion there and appointed his son Bahr Seged governor.

During the Era of Princes, the Enderta noble Wolde Selassie rose to power and received the title of Ras in 1790. He sheltered Emperor Tekle Giyorgis in 1799 and 1800, and made a friendship treaty with Britain in 1805. He died at Hintalo in 1816.
