There are various claims to the where a bouts of the ark of the covenant. Among them:

There is a reference in 2 Maccabees 2:4-10, to a document saying that the prophet Jeremiah, before the Babylonian invasion, took the Ark, the Tabernacle, and the Altar of Incense, and buried them in a cave on Mount Nebo (Jordan) (Deut. 34:1).

Modern excavations near the Temple Mount in Jerusalem have discovered the existence of tunnels. However, digging beneath the Temple Mount itself is heavily restricted because of religious reasons. The Islamic shrine, the Dome of the Rock, sits in the location where Solomon's Temple is thought to have stood.

The Ethiopian Orthodox Church claims to possess the Ark of the Covenant or tabot in Axum.
