- The Ark of the Covenant
At the back side of the Most Holy Place, was a large chest covered inside and out with pure gold. This was called the Ark of the Covenant; because it was made to hold the two tables of stone, on which the Ten Commandments were written. On the top of the Ark, there was the mercy-seat, made of solid gold, according to the size of the Ark, with figures called cherubim, rising up, one at each end, with their faces looking towards each other, and their wings spreading out and covering the mercy-seat. - The Tabernacle

An admirable representation of a battlefield is found on the walls of the pronaos of the great temple of Medient Habou and is thus described by Dr Richardson:-The south and part of the east wall is covered with a battle-scene, and the cruel punishment of the vanquished, by cutting off their hands and maiming their bodies.
