This theory proposes that the Ark was plundered by the Egyptians shortly after Solomon's death.

Sheshonq I established Tanis as the new Egyptian capital, and so it is here that Indiana Jones discovers the lost Ark in Steven Spielberg's movie. — Graham Phillips

That kind of courage is really undervalued in our culture. — Mary Pipher
