But that might not be the first thing that springs to mind on hearing the name Haile Selassie. The name is perhaps more easily connected with Jamaican singer Bob Marley and Rastafarians.

A man who "shone a light" on the Rastafarian faith has died aged 73 following a short illness. Ras Bandele Selassie ran the Rastafari Culture Centre in St Paul's, Bristol, from the 1990s.
