“St. Mary of Zion”
In Axum, Ethiopia. We have three Ethiopian families in our parish from there and they have no doubt whatsoever that the Ark is in the monastery. BTW, they also don’t find that at all remarkable.
They are just matter of fact about it huh?
How cool would that be...

I saw a rather interesting show on Nat Geo the other day with Grahm Handcock (yes a real nut) and he went to Ethiopia to the various sites connected with the Ark legend. His opinion was that they really had it. Looking at the evidence, and the various legends of the African Jewish kingdoms, I think it is very possible that the Ark or its’ remains are in St. Mary's of Zion.
On my list of “Would love to go there but will probably never see it”.
