Lakhmids Eastern Christianity Level 4

Lakhmid Cathedral of Zion

The Cathedral stands testament to the divine link between God and King.

The Cathedral of Zion, also known as the Church of Maryam Tsion, was constructed in the 4th century AD during the reign of King Ezana - who styled himself "King of Saba and Salhen, Himyar and Dhu-Raydan". Ezana was the first king in the region to accept Christianity, as detailed in surviving correspondence between him and the Roman Emperor Constantius II. The Cathedral of Zion became a place of spiritual and political significance in the region, as the reigns of Ethiopian Emperors not crowned there were not considered legitimate. Over the years, the church has been rebuilt several times (famously by the last Ethiopian emperor, Haile Selassie), and is alleged to be the final resting place of the Ark of the Covenant, a religious relic said to contain the stone tablets upon which the Ten Commandments are inscribed. Nobody has ever seen the Ark in its resting place in the chapel save for one monk who must watch it at all times and forbids anyone else from seeing it.
