Tekle Haymanot was proclaimed nəgusä nägäst (February 1788 – 1789) of Ethiopia by the former followers of Baede Maryam. He set up his palace in Gondar, and ruled there for about a year.1

He is sometimes given the title Atse, a less familiar Amharic word for "Emperor", to distinguish him from the other Emperors of Ethiopia with the same name; because he was not recognized as a legitimate ruler, he is not assigned a number.
