The Ark of the Covenant was a chest made of acacia wood in which the Jews kept the two stone tablets on which the Ten Commandments were carved. The Jews kept the Ark of the Covenant for many years, up to the time of Solomon, but no one knows what happened to it. There is speculation that it can be found in Ethiopia. The story goes that the 13th century King Lalibela of Ethiopia fell ill one time and whilst in a coma, he was visited by God in a vision. When he awoke he begun at once to carry out the order he received: to build a spectacular group of churches, hewn out of the rock of this mountainous region. Some believe that the lost Ark of the Covenant can be found here.
