Salomon III (Ge'ez: ሰሎሞን) was Emperor of Ethiopia intermittently between 1796 and 1797,[1] and a member of the Solomonic dynasty. He was the son of Tekle Haymanot II. He may be identical with the Emperor Solomon whom the traveler Henry Salt lists as one of the Emperors still alive at the time of his visit in 1809/1810.[2] E. A. Wallis Budge notes some authorities believe he was the same person as Baeda Maryam II.[3]

Wallis Budge (A History of Ethiopia: Nubia and Abyssinia, 1928 [Oosterhout, the Netherlands: Anthropological Publications, 1970], p. 479) states he ruled for a few days, starting on 20 May.
