The Church of Our Lady Mary of Zion, located in the north of Ethiopia claims to house the famed Ark of the Covenant. If you haven’t watched Indiana Jones in a while, this is the four foot long box holding Moses’ ten commandment tablets. The church claims to have received the arc 3,000 years ago when King Solomon’s son brought it from his father’s home in Israel to his mother, Queen of Sheba’s domain. No one may enter the room the ark is held in aside from a single monk, who may never leave.
