Northern Ethiopia – Ancient History and Spiritual Present

Season 6 Episode 605 | 26m 46s

Joseph travels Northern Ethiopia from the monasteries of Lake Tana to the castles of King Fasiladas in Gondar and the rock-hewn churches of Lalibela. There are surprises galore as he traces the lineage of Ethiopia’s kings back to the days of Solomon and the Queen of Sheba. In the ancient town of Axum, he stands at the threshold of the chapel where Ethiopians believe the Ark of Covenant is housed.
