Ethiopia (Ark of the Covenant in)
Ethiopia is traditionally believed to house the Ark of the Covenant, a sacred chest from ancient Israel that is said to contain the stone tablets of the Ten Commandments. According to Ethiopian tradition, the Ark was brought to Ethiopia by Menelik I, the son of King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba, and has been kept in the Church of Our Lady Mary of Zion in Axum for centuries. While its existence and location remain a subject of mystery and debate, the Ark holds profound religious and cultural significance for Ethiopians, symbolizing divine presence and national identity.
