One of our parishioners is from near this place. He says he and I will go there someday. The churches have carved Maltese crosses in them.

There is a book about Ethiopia and the Ark of the Covenant (which is likely there in a monastery) which has a section on these churches. I recommend the book. Here’s a link:
