Ethiopia's Ancient Kingdom Axum: Queen Sheeba's Palace, Northern Stelae Field, and More! (2019)
Axum was actually our first city after Addis Abeba as we started the northern Ethiopian Circle from the top of the country. I can tell you that this city is often overlooked in the sense that tourists only come for one or two days and then head to another destination like Mekele, the Churches the Tigray and so on. And I have to say it is a shame and a blessing! Axum is quite untouristy compared to other Ethiopian cities and this is what makes it so unique. People just live their lives here, you will not find 10000 guides trying to sell you tours. All the tours are organized through one tourist office where you can buy tickets so there is really no hassle and you never should have the feeling that you are getting screwed. The restaurants, with a few exceptions of hotel restaurants, are surprisingly basic and often just offer a few dishes but you get the authentic experience here. If you want to experience the unbusy Ethiopian city vibe, Axum is the place for you.
Driving through Axum, Ethiopia
This is a short video I recorded whilst driving through the Northern Ethiopian town of Axum, home to the Axum Stelae, St Mary of Zion, the Ark of the Covenant, and the so-called Queen of Sheba's Bath and Palace.

STORYLINE
Where is Christianity's Ark of the Covenant? Scholars have pondered its existence and location for centuries and theories about its resting place abound, a favourite location being Ethiopia. The Ark of the Covenant, the chest which God commanded be built to hold the tablets of the Ten Commandments, disappeared from Jerusalem after the destruction of King Solomon's Temple. It is central to the 3,000-year-old Ethiopian Orthodox Church and to the country's history. But here there's also a mystery, because there are two Ethiopian versions of what happened to the Ark.

Axum or Aksum is a city in northern Ethiopia. The town has a population of 56,500 residents (2010), and is governed as an urban wäräda.
The original capital of the Kingdom of Aksum, it is one of the oldest continuously inhabited places in Africa. Axum was a naval and trading power that ruled the region from about 400 BC into the 10th century. In 1980 UNESCO added Aksum's archaeological sites to its list of World Heritage Sites due to their historic value.
Located in the Mehakelegnaw Zone of the Tigray Region near the base of the Adwa mountains, Axum has an elevation of 2,131 metres (6,991 ft). Axum is surrounded by La'ilay Maychew wäräda.
The major Aksumite monuments in the town are stelae. These obelisks are around 1,700 years old and have become a symbol of the Ethiopian people's identity.[12] The largest number are in the Northern Stelae Park, ranging up to the 33-metre-long (3.84 metres wide, 2.35 metres deep, weighing 520 tonnes) Great Stele, believed to have fallen and broken during construction. The Obelisk of Axum (24.6 metres high, 2.32 metres wide, 1.36 metres deep, weighing 170 tonnes) was removed by the Italian army in 1937, and returned to Ethiopia in 2005 and reinstalled July 31, 2008. This stele was already broken into pieces before being shipped. The next tallest is the 24-metre (20.6 metres high above the front baseplate, 2.65 metres wide, 1.18 metres deep, weighing 160 tonnes) King Ezana's Stele. Three more stelae measure 18.2 metres high, 1.56 metres wide, 0.76 metres deep, weighing 56 tonnes; 15.8 metres high, 2.35 metres wide, 1 metres deep, weighing 75 tonnes; 15.3 metres high, 1.47 metres wide, 0.78 metres deep, weighing 43 tonnes.[14] The stelae are believed to mark graves and would have had cast metal discs affixed to their sides, which are also carved with architectural designs. The Gudit Stelae to the west of town, unlike the northern area, are interspersed with mostly 4th century tombs.
The other major feature of the town are the Old and New Cathedrals of St Mary of Zion. The Old St Mary of Zion Cathedral was built in 1665 by Emperor Fasilides and said to have previously housed the Ark of the Covenant. The original cathedral, said to have been built by Ezana and augmented several times after was believed to have been massive with 12 naves. It was burned to the ground by Gudit, rebuilt, and then destroyed again during the Gragn wars of the 1500s. It was again rebuilt by Emperor Gelawdewos (completed by his brother and successor Emperor Minas) and Emperor Fasilides replaced that structure with the present one. Only males are permitted entry into the Old St. Mary's Cathedral (some say as a result of the destruction of the original church by Gudit). The New Cathedral of St. Mary of Zion stands next to the old one, and was built to fulfill a pledge by Emperor Haile Selassie to the Our Lady of Zion for the liberation of Ethiopia from the Fascist occupation. Built in a neo-Byzantine style, work on the new cathedral began in 1955, and allows admittance to women. Emperor Haile Selassie interrupted the state visit of Britain's Queen Elizabeth II to travel to Axum to attend the dedication of the new Cathedral and pay personal homage, showing the importance of this church in the Ethiopian Empire. The Queen visited the Cathedral a few days later. Between the two cathedrals is a small chapel known as The Chapel of the Tablet built at the same time as the new cathedral, and which is believed to house the Ark of the Covenant. Emperor Haile Selassie's consort, Empress Menen, paid for its construction from her private funds. Admittance to the chapel is closed to all but the guardian monk who resides there. Entrance is even forbidden to the Patriarch of the Orthodox Church, and to the Emperor of Ethiopia during the monarchy. The two cathedrals and the chapel of the Ark are the focus of pilgrimage and considered the holiest sites in Ethiopia to members of its Orthodox Church.
Other attractions in Axum include archaeological and ethnographic museums, the Ezana Stone written in Sabaean, Ge'ez and Ancient Greek in a similar manner to the Rosetta Stone, King Bazen's Tomb (a megalith considered to be one of the earliest structures), the so-called Queen of Sheba's Bath (actually a reservoir), the 4th-century Ta'akha Maryam and 6th-century Dungur palaces, the monasteries of Abba Pentalewon and Abba Liqanos and the Lioness of Gobedra rock art.Local legend claims the Queen of Sheba lived in the town.

Queen of Sheba
This is a new painting I am presently working on. I sometimes start a painting with just some vision of what it is going to be and other times I just start painting and let the painting just flow. When I create a painting like this I have to be sensitive to what is happening in the painting. This painting is not completed but I was thinking about what it should be called. When I sent the image to my wife she automatically asked me who the Queen of Sheba is. That became the name. Funny how thinks happen.
Ethiopian History by Prof Tekeste Negash & Prof Aleme Eshete
Ethiopia was a monarchy for most of its history, and the Ethiopian dynasty traces its roots to the 2nd century BC.Ethiopia is also one of the oldest sites of human existence known to scientists today, having yielded some of humanity's oldest traces. It may be the region from which Homo sapiens first set out for the Middle East and points beyond. When Africa was divided up by European powers at the Berlin Conference, Ethiopia was one of only two countries that retained its independence. It was one of only four African members of the League of Nations. After a brief period of Italian occupation, Ethiopia became a charter member of the United Nations. When other African nations received their independence following World War II, many of them adopted the colors of Ethiopia's flag, and Addis Ababa became the location of several international organizations focused on Africa.

There are an infinite number of crosses to choose from. The Axum Cross. Gonder Cross. Lalibela cross. Each and every one unique. Straw baskets, beads, shawls, handicrafts, boys selling rocks containing amethysts...enough to give anyone a breakdown trying to make decisions...

Goodbye Ethiopia
Ethiopian obelisk stolen by Italy in 1937 to be returned
1. Various obelisk being unloaded from trucks at Rome military airport
2. Wide shot chartered plane on tarmac
3. Various interiors of plane loaded with obelisk parts
4. Set up of Professor Giorgio Croci of the University of Rome who is in charge of the operation
5. SOUNDBITE (English) Professor Giorgio Croci, Professor of the University of Rome, in charge of the operation
Well, it has been a long time because of both technical and political difficulties. And also from the technical point of view it has been difficult because, as I say, we have worked always with the limit of the weight, and this is the only aircraft in the world able to transport it. And it has been difficult to guarantee, to dismantle, to separate the blocks without producing any cracks, any damage, And so for this reason it has necessarily been a long time, long studies, research, tests, structural reasons and so on.
6. Various obelisk parts on plane
7. Various plane on tarmac
STORYLINE
A 1,700-year-old Ethiopian obelisk, which invading Italian troops hauled off nearly 70 years ago, on the orders of fascist dictator Benito Mussolini, from the ancient, wind-swept town of Axum, is being returned.
The 24-metre (82-foot) top section of the obelisk, which Ethiopians consider a symbol of their nation, was loaded onto a cargo plane at Rome military airport on Monday. It's due to arrive in Ethiopia on Tuesday.
The Italian Foreign Ministry said the two remaining pieces are expected to be returned by the end of April.
The Italian company organising the airlift says no one has attempted to fly such a massive monument before.
Returning the 160-metric ton (176-US ton) masterpiece of the ancient Axum civilisation, which was raised to commemorate the dead, has proven an enormous engineering challenge.
Heaters have been installed in the plane to protect the monument at cruising altitude, while workers have wrapped it in steel bars to stabilise it in
case of turbulence during the six-hour flight.
Engineers have also prepared the tiny Axum airport for the massive Antonov cargo plane's landing and set up two cranes to lift the obelisk onto trucks for the drive to its original location a few kilometres (miles) away, where it will join several smaller obelisks.
The temperature must remain below 16 degrees Celsius (60 degrees Fahrenheit) for the plane to land safely. A higher temperature would reduce the air density, making it impossible for the heavy aircraft to approach the runway at a safe speed.
The air is thin in Axum, which sits 2,000 metres (6,562 feet) above sea level. Italian officials have blamed the weather for repeated delays in returning the obelisk.
The Axumite kingdom was established between 200 and 100 BC. The legendary Queen of Sheba reigned in the region eight or nine centuries earlier, and the Old Testament tells the tale of her journey to King Solomon's court in 980 BC with 700 camels loaded with gold, ivory and other gifts. Her bathing pool and substantial remains of her palace can still be found in Axum.
Axum was the capital of a powerful, pre-Christian Axum Empire that stretched into parts of the Arabian peninsula. Legend has it that Axum was also the final resting place of the Ark of the Covenant.
Massive obelisks are among a few tangible remains of the past glory of Axum, an area lying in the shadow of the Adwa Mountains where Emperor Menelik II defeated the Italians in 1896 - the greatest modern victory of an African army over a European force.
The obelisk was dismantled at the end of 2003 from where it stood near the Circus Maximus in central Rome.
