King ʿEzana of Axum, who reigned in the 4thcentury AD, was the author of several inscriptions celebrating his exploits. According to these texts he was a pagan who later converted to Christianity.

Why do the religious invocations in Geʿez differ from those in Greek? The article proposes some new answers to these questions.
