Nothing was in the ark but the two stone tablets which Moses put there at Horeb, where the Lord made an agreement with the children of Israel when they came out of Egypt.
"…This ark contained the gold jar of manna, Aaron's staff that had budded, and the stone tablets of the covenant" (Heb 9:4). Aaron's rod and manna might be taken from there before it was brought to this place.
"I will write on the tablets the words that were on the former tablets which you shattered, and you shall put them in the ark" (De 10:2). The reason why Solomon kept simply the two tablets on which the covenant was written was probably because they may as well serve as a token of the presence of God.
