Garis besar
A link with Ethiopia: 5th century BC - 16th centuryBahri Negash was a province in the old kingdom of Ethiopia. It occupied the northern region which is now Eritrea. And then the iTalians came and colonized. The early kingdom of Aksum, in Tigre in the highlands of northern Ethiopia, is a part of both Eritrean as Ethiopian history. Its founders, crossing from Saba in Arabia, make their way through the coastal plain of Eritrea before reaching the highlands. Through much of history Tigre remains linked more closely with the coast than with Ethiopia.
As a more extensive Ethiopia develops, from about the 10th century AD, Eritrea becomes its northern province - administered by a governor, known as bahr nagash. But in the 16th century this valuable stretch of Red Sea coast falls to the strongest empire of the day, that of the Ottoman Turks. From 1557 the Turks occupy the important island and harbour of Massawa.
