Edited [Regnum] Researchers have discovered numerous anomalies and smooth-edged cavities near Mount Ararat in Turkey during radar scanning of the Noah's Ark search area. Whether the discovered fragments are part of the biblical vessel will be determined within two months, project leader Professor Jenker Atila announced on August 29. Research began on June 28 and is being conducted on a rock formation in the Durupınar region, 28 km from Ararat. Its outline resembles a gigantic ship. Its length is 164 meters—approximately 300 cubits, corresponding to the dimensions of the Ark described in the Old Testament. "We've currently created 3D models, GPS points, and maps. We've also conducted underground surveys using radar systems used by the US Air Force. We've been trying to determine whether there are any underground cavities, wood remains, or other fragments that could form the shape of the ship. Although we won't have final results for two months, even this current data is very important to us," Milliyet newspaper quoted Atil as saying. According to him, research within the formation revealed numerous voids and intersecting angular structures at various levels, converging toward its central part. This suggested that the anomalies could be part of a vessel, the professor explained. "We've taken soil samples and conducted some analysis. The work is ongoing; we'll take about a thousand soil samples. Our research has already established that the amount of carbon extracted from the interior of the formation is 40% higher than from the exterior. This suggests the possibility of organic matter or wood remains. The current data alone increases the likelihood that Noah's Ark is here," Atila added. In November 2023, archaeologists made a discovery that shed light on the location of Noah's Ark. Research was conducted in the area of the villages of Telçeker and Uzengili in the Ağrı Province of eastern Turkey. Using ground-penetrating radar, they discovered an artificial ship-shaped structure underground. It was determined that human activity in the region occurred between 5500 and 3000 BC. This coincides with the presumed timing of the Great Flood. |
