"People have been curious for many centuries about Ethiopia’s stories left in stone. Recent archaeology is uncovering some fascinating answers. South of Axum, visitors can see the quarry where the tall stones that decorated Axum were carved—and can also see the form of a lioness that some human (or maybe, according to legend, the Archangel Michael) scratched onto the rock thousands of years ago. In 2012, a British archaeologist working in Ethiopia crawled under a stone carved with a sun and crescent moon, the and found a gold mine with an inscription in Sabaean, which, as she says, is “the language that the Queen of Sheba would have spoken.” She adds, “The fact that we might have the Queen of Sheba's mines is extraordinary." In this book, you can see a few glimpses into some of the long stories of Ethiopia that are revealed in its cities and rural areas. An early-reader book in both English and Amharic."--Amazon.com.
