Abstract
[Autom. eng. transl.] Between the 1st and 6th centuries, Adulis formed the main port city of the kingdom of Aksum, one of the most important emporiums along the Red Sea. Recent archaeological investigations have also involved places of worship, giving significant information about the spread of Christianity between the fourth and sixth centuries along that important commercial artery that was the Red Sea.
