B) It was spread by European missionaries.

Explanation:

Officially, the entry of Christianity occurred in the 4th century AD, when St. Frumentius brought the message of the Gospel from Rome to the kingdom of Aksum, which covered what is now the northeast territory of Ethiopia and Eritrea. The emperor of that time, Ezana, accepted the messenger's words and "the word of God" spread throughout his kingdom with remarkable receptivity. St. Frumentius was named as the first "Abuna" of Ethiopia, head of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church.

What is curious is that in the sixth century, the churches in Egypt and Ethiopia, which followed the patriarch of Alexandria (a city in northern Egypt founded in 331 BC by the Roman Emperor Alexander the Great), separated from Rome and founded their own Coptic or Orthodox church, with its own liturgy, symbols and legends.
