Above -
probable Ark Shape |
New evidence shows that there's a simple reason
why Noah's Ark, after 10's pf expeditions, has
not been found. Simply put:
"Because they have
been looking for the wrong shape and design".
Much new evidence shows that the true shape and
design of Noah's Ark was more like: "A giant
A-framed house-like roof, upon a chestlike
ship's hull".

Click the above link entitled; "History of the
search for Noah's Ark above to read about prior
expeditions up to 2006, that have been looking
for a box-barge like ark.
New evidence also shows that around the world as
Noah's descendants moved away from Mt Ararat
they left murals, paintings, rock carvings and
mosaics. They even printed coins with this ark
shape on it. In many of these memorials to the
ark, they are shown with animals coming out of
it.
Could this be Noah's Mummified
remains? |
|
Also, there's evidence to show that when the ark
is finally found, that the well preserved
mummified remains of Noah, his wife, and Shem
may be found entombed in the ark. Buried their
by Noah's descendents. |
Some Archeological &
Historical Evidence
©
Ron Stewart, 2004-2006
Isidore of Seville (560-636 A.D.) wrote: "Ararat is a mountain in
Armenia, where the historians testify that the Ark came to rest
after the Flood. So even to this day wood remains of it are to be
seen there".
What has to be realized is that after Noah's
Ark landed upon Mt. Ararat GOD gave man
command to
worship only him.
Most of Noah's descendants disobeyed GOD,
and worshiped things they should not. Noah
in the eyes of his descendants was
worshiped as a The God of Eternal Life.
Because he was the last of mankind from his
time period to live according to scripture
to almost the age of 1,000 years. Also
referred to as: "Last of The
Antediluvians".-(these were those of the
first among mankind like Adam and Eve,
Methuselah, and last Noah
and his wife, who lived to be almost 1,000
years old).
After Noah, people only lived to perhaps 120 years of age
at the most. The
archaeological finds known as The Epic of
Gilgamesh, and The Elba Tablets of Circa
scientifically / archaeologically verifies
this. Both dated around 2200 B.C., state that
Noah was worshiped as The God of Eternal
life. Although Noah , his wife, and
Shem would not have approved of this, they
were worshiped anyway.

1st
century A.D. Jewish-Roman historian Flavius
Josephus reported the ship was already being
torn down. "It is said that a portion of the
vessel still survives ... on the mountains
... and that persons carry off pieces of
[it], which they use as talismans." |

In
Search of Noah's Ark |
According to Genesis, Noah was a
righteous man who was instructed by God
to construct a large vessel to hold his
family and many species of animals, as a
massive deluge was coming to purify the
world which had become corrupt.

Mount Ararat
(16,940 feet, 5165 m) is the largest volcano in
Turkey.
It is located in extreme northeastern Turkey,
near the borders with Iran and Armenia.
Armenia was the 1st Christian country. |

The search for Noah's Ark is more than
just the analysis of photographs.
In his new book, Ron Stewart has
painstakingly assembled most of the
available evidence, including
historical, archeological, biblical, and
legends.
Anomaly on Mt Ararat

Located in glacial ice at an
altitude of 15,300 feet in 2003, some scientists say the
imagery suggests that its length-to-width ratio is close to 6:1,
similar to the description in the Book of Genesis.
Same anomaly as the above 1949 image above. |

Has Noah's Ark finally
been found?
or faked? |
I dont know of any
expedition that ever
went looking for the ark
and didn't find it,
said archeologist Paul
Zimansky recently told
National Geographic. |

Original claim:
A group of Chinese and
Turkish evangelical
explorers say wooden
remains they have
discovered on Mount
Ararat in eastern Turkey
are the remains of
Noah's Ark.
The group claims that
carbon dating proves the
relics are 4,800 years
old, meaning they date
to around the same time
the ark was said to be
afloat. Read
about this at:
FoxNews |
Claim the discovery was
faked:
Now, someone within the
Noahs Ark Ministries
camp is rubbishing the
discovery.
Randall Price, an
evangelical Christian,
was apparently one of
the original
archeologists hired by
the group. He has been
circulating
an
email,
alleging that the wooden
beams were taken from a
site near the Black Sea
and then planted on
Ararat.

Durupinar site |
At the
Durupinar
is a large
boat-shaped structure in the Tenderuk
mountains of eastern Turkey,
6,300 ft above sea level.
The
Durupinar site was heavily promoted by
adventurer and former nurse-anesthetist,
the late Ron Wyatt in the 1980s and
1990s. Geologists have
identified the Durupinar site as a
natural formation, but Wyatt's Ark
Discovery Institute continues to
champion its claims.
Lorence Collins, a retired geology
professor from California State
University, Northridge, joined the late
David Fasold, a one-time proponent of
the Wyatt site, in writing a
scientific summary
claiming the Durupinar location is "bogus."
"Evidence from microscopic studies and
photo analyses demonstrates that the
supposed Ark near Dogubayazit is a
completely natural rock formation," said
the 1996 paper published in the Journal
of Geoscience Education. "It cannot have
been Noah's Ark nor even a man-made
model. It is understandable why early
investigators falsely identified it."
