Sounds like a dead end to me. I hear a monestary in Ethiopia claims they have it.

“That’s a powerful force. Research should be done ...”

“Oh, it will be, Dr. Jones, I assure you. We have top men working on it right now.”

“Who?”

“Top ... men.”

Gee, and just in time for the release of a new Indiana Jones movie.

What are the chances, huh?

I would have to think if it was really there some of the Red Heffer folks would head down and take it off their hands.

Belloc, what a moron. Who would expect that a “radio for talking with God” would be a tool you could “point and shoot”, expecially when you were the ones exterminating God’s Chosen?

"...it is at the heart of a debate about whether archaeology should chronicle the rise and fall of civilizations or explore the boundaries between myth and ancient history."

How can one tell beforehand which is which??? Lots of "myths" have turned out to be concrete archealogical facts.

I named my daughter after the Ethiopian Queen of Sheba. It is Not an uncommon name for black Americans, but not so common for women of Hispanic descent.

Makeda.

Just a side note.

“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.
