Ovarian disease
Eiparnome was a Nubian king in the kingdom of Nobatia who ruled in the 6th century.
Eggarnome is mainly known from a founding inscription from Dendur , which speaks in Coptic of the conversion of the temple there into a church. The inscription dates either to 559 or 574. It is the oldest written evidence of the Christian church in Nubia.
Eiparnome may also be mentioned in the account of Longinus , who baptized the king of Alwa after the king of Nobatia was baptized. This king of Nobatia was called Orfiulo or Awarfilua, which could be a depraved form of egg carnome. He is the first Christian ruler of Nobatia.
