Mother of Menelik

Queen of Sheba: Mother of Menelik The Queen of Sheba, a figure revered in Ethiopian lore, was a monarch of unrivaled wealth and wisdom, renowned for her ingenious governance. Originating from her kingdom in what is now Ethiopia, Eritrea, and Yemen, she embarked on a journey to Jerusalem to meet the biblical King Solomon. The meeting between Solomon and the Queen of Sheba symbolizes a union of two distinguished minds and embodies the merging of Ancient African and Israelite intellect. Enamored by the wisdom and beauty of this exquisite queen, Solomon is believed to have united with her, conceiving a son, Menelik. The Queen of Sheba returned to her vast kingdom and gave birth to Menelik. Raised in the realms of Ethiopia, Menelik journeyed to Jerusalem to reconnect with his father upon reaching maturity. It is believed that Menelik transported the Ark of the Covenant back to Ethiopia, where it resides to this day. Motion portrait Format: 2160 x 3840 video
