Everyone talks about Egypt… But did you know some of Africa’s oldest books are hidden in Ethiopia’s mountains? In places like Debre Damo & Lake Tana, monks guard manuscripts over 1,000 years old—written in Ge’ez, one of the world’s oldest scripts still used today. These texts include ancient medicine, star charts & prophecies, and royal genealogies back to King Solomon. Legend says Queen Makeda & Solomon had a son—Menelik I—who brought the Ark of the Covenant to Ethiopia. Some say the Ark still rests in Axum—guarded by one man. No tours. No cameras. These books weren’t lost. They were protected. They prove Africa was writing, healing & leading—long before the world took notice. This is history they don’t teach. Follow for more.
