The remains of one of the Aksumite period palaces of Matara, this small 4th century foundation was excavated extensively while M. Francis Anfray led the team from the Ethiopian Institute of Archaeology. A particularly graceful building even in ruins, I chose the central structure of this palace as the first antiquity I reconstructed on my Virtual Abyssinia project in Second Life.

The oldest standing structure in Ethiopia is located in Yeha: the temple of Yeha. This is a tower built in the Sabaean style, and dated through comparison with ancient structures in South Arabia to around 700 BC. Although no radiocarbon dating testing has been performed on samples from Yeha, this date for the Great Tower is supported by local inscriptions.David Phillipson attributes its "excellent preservation" to two factors, "the care with which its original builders ensured a level foundation, firmly placed on the uneven bedrock; and to its rededication -- perhaps as early as the sixth century AD -- for use as a Christian church." Two other archeological sites at Yeha include Grat Beal Gebri, a ruined complex distinguished by a portico 10 meters wide and two sets of square pillars, and a graveyard containing several rock-hewn shaft tombs first investigated in the early 1960s. One authority has speculated that one of these tombs contained a royal burial, while another believes the ancient residential area was likely one kilometer to the east of the modern village. Yeha is also the location of an Ethiopian Orthodox monastery, founded according to tradition by Abba Aftse, one of the Nine Saints. In his account of Ethiopia, Francisco Álvares mentions visiting this town in 1520 (which he called "Abbafaçem"), and provides a description of the ancient tower, the monastery, and the local church. This church was either the rededicated Great Temple, or a now destroyed building ...

The ancient city of Aksum in Ethiopia was once known as a major force in the eastern world; evidence of Christianity still exist in the ruins of that city dating back to the 3rd century AD; the city claims to have the Ark of the Covenant (10 commandments tablets) in it's possession for safekeeping.
