Yostos (), throne name Tsehay Sagad (, died ), was Emperor of Ethiopia from 14 October 1711 to 19 February 1716, and a member of Solomonic dynasty. After the death of Tewoflos, the nobles chose one of their own as nəgusä nägäst to avoid a cycle of vengeance. Yostos, facing challenges to his authority, remained in Gondar throughout his reign, only venturing out for hunting.
Once the political situation stabilized, he built two churches in Gondar. Yostos faced a conspiracy to depose him but thwarted it, punishing the conspirators. He led a slave-raiding expedition, captured children, and ended the campaign after the death of his confidant. Yostos fell ill in January 1716, withdrew from public life, and unintentionally caused a fire during a fumigation attempt. Amid conflicts over his successor, Dawit III was proclaimed Emperor while Yostos remained alive but forgotten. He was eventually given a proper burial in Lideta church.
