The placement of a chest Christians imagine holds the Ten Commandments might have been under our noses this whole time.
At the least, that’s what these CIA documents claim.
The Ark of the Covenant (no, not the Indiana Jones movie) was built by Israelites across the thirteenth century BC, in line with the Bible.
It’s believed that Moses then put the stone tablets which have the Ten Commandments on them within the chest.
But newly resurfaced CIA documents from the Eighties appear to point to Ethiopia as the realm where the lost Ark is.
Within the eighties, the CIA did experiments with individuals who said they might tell details about objects, people and events from distant.


One among these people reportedly gave coordinates of an object matching the outline of the lost Covenant within the Middle East, claiming people around it were ‘speaking Arabic’.
”The goal is a container. This container has one other container within it,’ the document states. ‘The goal is fashioned of wood, gold and silver…. and it’s decorated with [a six-winged angel],’ the person told the CIA.
Now, this ought to be taken with a grain of salt. But, it’s still fascinating.
The Ark has been ‘missing’ since 586 BC when it’s believed to have vanished in the course of the Babylonian siege of Jerusalem.
It could thoroughly still be within the ‘Holy Land’, but some rumours have placed the Ark as distant as Ethiopia.
The psychic one that claimed to know where the Ark was also went on to explain buildings which resembled domes of mosques, together with people ‘clothed in all white’ with ‘black hair and dark eyes’.
‘The goal is hidden — underground, dark and wet were all elements of the placement of the goal,’ they said. ‘The aim of the goal is to bring people together. It has something to do with ceremony, memory, homage, the resurrection.


‘There’s a facet of spirituality, information, lessons and historical knowledge far beyond what we now know.’
Eerily, the psychic claimed that anyone who attempted to open the container by ‘prying or striking’ it will be ‘destroyed by the container’s protectors through the usage of an influence unknown to us.’
In 2018, a bunch of American Christians claimed to have found the actual Ark in a distant African church where it’s guarded by monks.
Bible Archaeology Search and Exploration Institute (BASE) claimed to have spoken to some locals including the monk who’s the ‘Guardian of the Ark’ on the Church of Our Lady Mary of Zion in the town of Axum in Ethiopia.
Nevertheless many other researchers were quick to dismiss the claim.
