Atronsa Maryam (Ge'ez: አትሮንሰ ማርያም, "Throne of St Mary") is one of the oldest churches in South Wollo, Amhara Region, Ethiopia.

[3] Originally, the idea of building a church in the vicinity of Kelanto was initiated by Emperor Newaya Krestos, also called Sayfa Ara'ad (1344-1372).

[4][5] Several years later, fulfilling the ambition of his grand father, Emperor Zera Yacob (1434-1468) sent a tabot to the site and built a small chapel for her.

A text in the chronicle of Emperor Baeda Maryam states that the tabot spent 67 years in "Sako Melza".

[11][12] In about 1531, during the Ethiopian–Adal War between the Muslims and the Christian Ethiopian Empire, one of the Adal contingents, commanded by Waz Ir Nur, plundered its property and burned the church along with the treasure that they could not carry away.

[13] This story was fully described by the writer of the Futuh-al-Habasa as follows: The Imam then called the Arabs who were with him, and said to them, "Is there in Constantinople (Rum) or India or anywhere else a building such as this house (Atronasa Maryam) and its paintings and gold?"

The tabot is believed to have spent most of its exile in a new church built at a mountain pinnacle over the Blue Nile Gorge, also named after it as Atronsa Maryam.
