The Sign and the Seal, The Quest for the Lost Arc of the Covenant

The Sign and the Seal, The Quest for the Lost Arc of the Covenant

by Graham Hancock

  • MYSTERY
  • 1993
  • PAPER
  • 600 PAGES

In 1983 Hancock visited Axum and learned of Ethiopia's proud claim to the Ark of the Covenant -- and of the nation's ancient Judeo-Christian roots. This mystery would become a ten-year-long obsession, the genesis of this page-turning yarn of adventure, amazing persistence, and scholarship. Regardless of what you think of Hancock's conclusions, this marvelous book is an excellent introduction to Ethiopia, its traditions and legends.  (AFR23, $17.99)
