: Well, I don't know about that other part, :) but Shoshenk I (not Shishak) is the pharaoh they're refering to. I can't remember the exact details without looking it up, but he is famous for his campaigns Late Kingdom campaigns in the Levant, which included the sacking of Jerusalem in which he is purported to have carried away quite a bit of loot, including the ark supposedly. :) He was a 22nd dynasty pharaoh, with his political seat in Tanis. In fact I think he was the founder of the 22nd dynasty...

I found what you have said before, and that Shoshenk is buried in Tanis [my 1st Indy reference]. Also, my source says that Shishak may have been an unflattering vocalization meaning "The one who crushes with his foot". How fitting.
Another source says that Shishak is actually Ramses the Third. This source claims that Solomon's treasure was stolen by Rehoboam. Most interesting is the allegation that Solomon's treasure included TWO Arks of the Covenant [2nd Indy reference]... Fall Guy
