Undaunted, Parfitt asserts that "this is the Ark referred to in Lemba tradition" - Lemba legend has it that the original ngoma destroyed itself some 400 years ago and had to be rebuilt on its own "ruins" - "constructed by priests to replace the previous Ark.

...bacteria, viruses and tissues from outside donors. Several days before the transplant surgery, Sachs' team used drugs that target and eliminate these cells to wipe the immune slate clean. Then the team transplanted the kidney along with donor bone-marrow cells. What happened next was surprising: the bone marrow rebuilt the immune system but this time as a chimera?a hybrid of both the donated organ's cells and the body's own. The donated organ could then be accepted instead of rejected...
