Lemba Jews in Zimbabwe

The connection between the Lemba Jews of Zimbabwe and the Lost Ark of the Covenant

An exploration of the world of the Lemba Jews in Zimbabwe and a mysterious and ancient drum-like object they revere called the ngoma lungundu. This was lost for many years but has been recently rediscovered and British historian Tudor Parfitt believes it very closely resembles the Israelites' Lost Ark of the Covenant.
