The patriarch of the Orthodox Church of Ethiopia says he will announce to the world Friday the unveiling of the Ark of the Covenant, perhaps the world's most prized archaeological and spiritual artifact, which he says has been hidden away in a church in his country for millennia, according to the Italian news agency Adnkronos.

Abuna Pauolos, in Italy for a meeting with Pope Benedict XVI this week, told the news agency, "Soon the world will be able to admire the Ark of the Covenant described in the Bible as the container of the tablets of the law that God delivered to Moses and the center of searches and studies for centuries."...

They totally have to take it along to a BNP rally and open it, for shits and giggles, like.

I'm sure there was summat on tv not that long ago about the Ark of the Covenant having its final resting place in ethiopia with some Jewish offshoot tribe. It's meant to be some large wood n leather pod type vessel that was carried between 2 wooden poles as opposed to the movie image of a large gold and jewel encrusted box.

Should be interesting to see what he reveals........

Except that it's not, because it's a fictional object from a Jewish fairy tale.

I saw that documentary. The thing you’re on about turned out to be a big old drum, not a container for anything.

You'd be as well looking for the Shankara stones, or Egon Spengler's proton pack.

this thing was mentioned in that though was it not?

i seem to remember it being only shown to the like 1 or 2 very very highest people in the church and everyone else had to take it on faith.

[poprock]

Aye, that’s right. The programme basically said “We think this African drum thing was the source of the ark stories, but here’s an Ethiopian church who claim to have the real thing in a little locked temple.”

Bag o' shite.

Doesn't matter what it is or what's in the box; it's an old bit of junk that some crackpots have attached grandoise significance to.

The equivalent of thinking your favourite toy space ship can actually fly you to the moon.
