Axum is the name of a city in northern Ethiopia , considered to be the seed-bed of Ethiopian Christianity. It is the site of Ethiopia 's most ancient city and is renowned for its cathedral of St. Mary of Zion , where it is believed the original Ark of the Covenant is housed. Axum is also famous for its seven mysterious monolithic stelae, carved from single pieces of granite and with identical decorations. The biggest of them is 33 meters high and weighs over 5000 tons. It was the largest monolith in the world but fell at some time in the past.
