Said to have been built by the Israelites to house the stone tablets on which the Ten Commandments were written, the Ark of the Covenant has long captured the popular imagination and is perhaps best known in popular culture as the object sought by Indiana Jones in the 1981 film Raiders of the Lost Ark.
