Sofya (4th-century), was a queen consort and regent of the Kingdom of Aksum.

She was married to king Ella Amida (Ousanas). She was widowed in c. 330, and her king Ezana of Axum succeeded his father as king. As her son was still a child upon his succession, she ruled as regent during his minority. [1]
