BBC: Ethiopia's last emperor, Haile Selassie, was buried in an unmarked
grave after his overthrow. His remains were found in 1992 under a toilet
in the Imperial Palace.

Wikipedia: The Soviet-backed Derg fell in 1991. In 1992, the Emperor's
bones were found under a concrete slab on the palace grounds; some
reports suggest that his remains were discovered beneath a latrine.

Curious and lazy choice of words to describe an "heir to a dynasty that
traced its origins to the 13th century, and from there by tradition back
to King Solomon and Queen Makeda, Empress of Axum, known in the
Abrahamic tradition as the Queen of Sheba."
