BASE scholars visited the Church of Our Lady Mary of Zion – but were denied access to the alleged Ark, but were given compelling testimony by the priest onsite.

Nothing new here.
I remember seeing articles on this, and shows on cable chanels like History channel and wherever else on this YEARS ago.
There’s some monk or priest who is the only one allowed access, and no one else gets to see this thing. I ws hoping this ‘article’ discussed how the item was actually inspected... but no.
Why is this even written?
Yes, old, old, OLD news. Nothing new here; move along.
Have seen multiple shows on this claim, all much the same. All add that said monk can’t be interviewed and no one can gointo the Church. Which are flagrantly impossible over generational time scales. When the old monk dies who picks the next one? Who trains him? How do they know the old one died? Who brings out his body? Who maintains the building? One monk can only do so much. How is food delivered? How, do they know when randomly wearing out items like robes need replacing. There has to be some communication between the monk and the bureaucracy of the Ethiopian church that maintains him. But the shows never ask those questions.
