Why? It’s on Oak Island.
I think there are two likely possibilities.
First, the Babylonians took it and simply destroyed it for the gold etc.
The second and to me, most likely is the Priests knowing it would be taken, hid it. It probably will never be found or maybe has been found by Romans etc. who would have done the same thing as the Babylonians.

Archaeologists, huh?
Are they “top men?”
I have been sucked into multiple looking for the Ark shows, I’ve decided to embargo until the title is Ark Found, Experts Surprised by Location.
It’s buried in the end zone at Giant Stadium.
When the LORD finished speaking to Moses on Mount Sinai, he gave him the two tablets of the covenant law, the tablets of stone inscribed by the finger of God.
Exodus 31:18
Why?
…15”Then I will give you shepherds after My own heart, who will feed you on knowledge and understanding.
16”It shall be in those days when you are multiplied and increased in the land,” declares the LORD, “they will no longer say, ‘The ark of the covenant of the LORD.’ And it will not come to mind, nor will they remember it, nor will they miss it, nor will it be made again.
17”At that time they will call Jerusalem ‘The Throne of the LORD,’ and all the nations will be gathered to it, to Jerusalem, for the name of the LORD; nor will they walk anymore after the stubbornness of their evil heart.…

31”Behold, days are coming,” declares the LORD, “when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah, 32not like the covenant which I made with their fathers in the day I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt, My covenant which they broke, although I was a husband to them,” declares the LORD.…

I suspect God has it hiding in plain sight somewhere.
ark probably not taken by Babylonian invader, at least it did not show up on the lists of the things they stole.....
According to one account, King Josiah hid the ark under the wood storehouse (On the Jewish Temple Mount). Another version of its whereabouts is that King Solomon foresaw a potential future need to hide the ark and set up a hiding place for it in a Dead Sea cave. There are reportedly tunnel(s) from under the JTM to the Dead Sea region a few miles to the east. The ‘under the Jewish Temple Mount” version is, I believe, the more widely accepted account as it traces back closer to the time of the JTemple. The Dead Sea cave account I can only trace back to Maidonides (over a thousand years later). Archeologlist Leen Ritmeyer believes its buried under the JTM, directly under where the ark stood (in the Holy of Holies room of the Temple). Ritmeyer says there’s a cut stone there that matches the ark’s dimensions. As for Ethiopia, it is possible they may have a copy of the Ark... as it is recorded that copies were made... and if King Solomon let them continue on their return to Ethiopia knowing they had an ark in their cargo...he must have known it was a copy ark (or he would never have let it go, this being just my opinion).
So..
1. Babylonian invaders stole it
2. buried under JTM woodshed
3. buried in a DeadSea cave
4. buried under Holy of Holies on JTM
5. Ethiopia
6. buried with Jimmy Hoffa in Detroit, Michigan?
Thought I saw the ark at a pawn shop in Vegas
Was already found by Ron Wyman (?) in the 1980s. The Israeli govt knows all about it, the blood on the crack covering the stone slab on the seat was tested. Probably already removed by now. Detailed analysis and story back on his website back in the 90s. He also found Noah’s ark in turkey which was recognized by the Turkish govt. others follow along and claim they found it.
Wyman or was it Wyatt? Also claimed to have found the site at the Red Sea where the Egyptians entered to chase after Moses et al.
http://wyattmuseum.com/ Here is the link. There is controversy. Some claim Wyatt fabricated everything, blah, blah, blah...is it true. Read what. Is available and decide for yourself. Believe he found what he said he found.
