Although Every Biblical Discorveries and Confirmation is a Hoax to the Atheists, that wont stop me from posting this Story.
The atheists will never believe anything as long as it will defeat his Ego and rubbish his belief. Even when they are truths.

Therefore, I am posting this News without entertaining anyone's negative reactions.


This Video Shows you how and where it was discovered. Watch.

In 1959, Turkish army captain Llhan Durupinar discovered an unusual shape while examining aerial photographs of his country. The smooth shape, larger than a football field, stood out from the rough and rocky terrain at an altitude of 6,300 feet near the Turkish border with Iran.

Capt. Durupinar was familiar with the biblical accounts of the Ark and its association with Mount Ararat in Turkey, but he was reluctant to jump to any conclusions. The region was very remote, yet it was inhabited with small villages. No previous reports of an object this odd had been made before. So he forwarded the photographic negative to a famous aerial photography expert named Dr. Brandenburger, at Ohio State University.

Brandenburger was responsible for discovering the Cuban missile bases during the Kennedy era from reconnaissance photos, and after carefully studying the photo, he concluded: "I have no doubt at all, that this object is a ship. In my entire career, I have never seen an object like this on a stereo photo."



In 1960 the picture [above] was published in LIFE magazine under the heading of Noahs Ark? That same year a group of Americans accompanied Capt. Durupinar to the site for a day and a half. They were expecting to find artifacts on the surface or something that would be unquestionably related to a ship of some kind. They did some digging in the area but found nothing conclusive and announced to the anxiously waiting world that it appeared to be a natural formation.

Most of the global media turned away from the find and it became a non-story.

In 1977 Ron Wyatt visited the site. Obtaining official permission, Ron and others conducted more thorough research over a period of several years. They used metal detection surveys, subsurface radar scans, and chemical analysis -- real science -- and their findings were startling. The evidence was undeniable. This was the Ark of Noah.

The Visual Evidence

The first part of the survey was to examine the object and take its measurements. The shape looked like hull of a ship. One end was pointed as you would expect from bow [below: D] and the opposite end was blunt like a stern. The distance from bow to stern was 515 feet, or exactly 300 Egyptian cubits. The average width was 50 cubits. These were the exact measurements mentioned in the Bible.

noahs ark found

On the starboard side (right) near the stern there were four vertical bulges protruding from the mud [B], at regular intervals, that were determined to be the "ribs" of the hull [see below]. Opposite to these, on the port side, a single rib [A] protrudes from the mud. You can see its curved shape very clearly. Surrounding it are more ribs, still largely buried in the mud, but visible upon close examination.

Remember that this object, if it is the Ark, is extremely old. The wood has been petrified. Organic matter has been replaced by minerals from the earth. Only the shapes and traces of the original wood remain. Perhaps this is why the expedition in 1960 was disappointed. They anticipated finding and retrieving chucks of wood, long since eroded.

From the position of the object in the middle of an obvious mud flow, it is obvious that the object slid down more than a mile from its original location. Geologists believe it was originally over 1000 feet higher in the mountain and encased in a shell of hardened mud. They think that an earthquake in 1948 cracked the mud shell and revealed the structure. This is confirmed by stories from the surrounding villagers who tell of its "sudden appearance" around that time.

noahs ark found

Biblical accounts of the Ark describe it as having as many as six levels. The assumed shape of the Ark seems consistent with the bulge [C] in the middle of the object. In fact, as we will soon learn, radar scans of the structure suggest that this bulge is the collapsed debris of these levels.

Although most people think of the Ark as being rectangular, that only applies to the top decks. The sleek shape of the hull is necessary to enable the huge ship to remain stable in the water and survive tremendous waves.

Ground Penetrating Radar

The human eye needs to see reflected light to recognize an object. To visualize what remains below the earth, scientists use microwaves which can penetrate the ground and bounce back when they hit something solid. This technique is commonly used to locate oil and other minerals. Called Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR), the apparatus us made from an antenna that transmits, then listens to receive the "echo" and prints the result on a piece of paper. The delay and strength of this echo tell the geologists how solid and at what depth the objects are under the earth.

noahs ark found

The team of geologists didn't scan the entire object. Instead, they marked out lines that crossed the object with yellow tape. Then they dragged the antenna (about the size of a lawnmower) over the lines and watched the output on the paper recorder. When they got a strong "hit" -- meaning there was something solid underneath -- they would record the position on the tape [above]. Later, when they made a map of the object, the tape and the location of the "hits" they realized that there was indeed a structure underneath the mud.

"This data does not represent natural geology. These are man made structures. These reflections are appearing too periodic... too periodic to be random in that type of natural pace." - Ron Wyatt of SIR Imaging team

The radar cans revealed this structure [above] under the mud. The symmetry and logical placement of these objects shows that this is unmistakably a man made structure, most likely the Ark of Noah.

Artifacts Retrieved From The Ark

Using the GPR, Ron Wyatt discovered an open cavity on the starboard side. He used an improvised drill to make core sample inside this cavity and retrieved several very interesting objects. Below you can see the artifacts which were sent for laboratory analysis. On the left is the bore hole [see below], followed by what turned out to be petrified animal dung, then a petrified antler and lastly a piece of cat hair.



Perhaps the most significant find from the Ark itself is a piece of petrified wood. When this was first found it appeared to be a large beam. But upon closer examination it is actually three pieces of plank that have been laminated together with some kind of organic glue! This is the same technology used in modern plywood. Lamination makes the total strength of the wood much greater than the combined strength of the pieces. This suggests a knowledge of construction far beyond anything we knew existed in the ancient world.



Tests by Galbraith Labs in Knoxville, Tennessee, showed the sample to contain over 0.7% organic carbon, consistent with fossilized wood. The specimen was once living matter.

Examination reveals the glue oozed from the layers. The outside of the wood appears to have been coated with bitumen.

Even more surprising were laboratory analyses which not only revealed that the petrified wood contained carbon (proving it was once wood) but there were iron nails [above right] embedded in the wood!

We like to imagine that humanity evolved in a neat sequence of eras, each named after the technology that was discovered. We have the Stone Age (where man developed arrows and stone tools), the Bronze Age (where metals were combined and heated to make tools and household items) and lastly the Iron Age (where iron and steel objects were made by heating iron ore and adding other material -- like charcoal -- to strengthen it). The Iron Age is usually placed at 1200-1000 BC, yet we have iron nails being used in this extremely old construction.

But Wait... There's More!

The most surprising find was discovered with sensitive metal detectors. The team located several strong "hits" that, when dug up, revealed large disc shaped rivets. From simple observation of the metal it was possible to see where the rivet had been hammered after being inserted through a hole [below].

noahs ark found

If rivets being used in ancient construction doesn't impress you, this surely will.

The Surrounding Areas

Several miles from the location of the Ark, huge stones were discovered, some standing upright while others lying on the ground. These stones, weighing many tons, have holes carved in them. Scientists have determined that they were anchors and the holes would have been their attachment to a ship with hemp rope.

noahs ark found

Often these stones will have crosses carved in them, from centuries ago when pilgrims made the journey to visit the Ark. Yes, the Ark was well known in the Middle Ages and even before. And its location was recorded in many historical documents.

"And the Ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat. And the waters decreased continually until the tenth month: in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, were the tops of the mountains seen." - Genesis 8:4-5
The Gilgamesh Epic (650 BC) gives Mt. Nisir as the landing place of the Ark. The local name for the town where the Ark was found is Nasar.

The annals of Ashurnasurpal II of Assyria (833-859 BC) places it south of the Zab river (correct).

Theophilus of Antioch (115-185 AD) said the Ark could be seen in his day in the Arabian mountains. Later Church Fathers also mention the Ark as late as the mid 7th century.

In the 13th century, Willam, a traveler, stated for the first time that Mt. Masis was the Ark location (present-day Mt. Ararat).

Ptolemy's Geographia (1548) mentions the mountains of Armenia as the place of landing. So does the traveler Nicolas de Nicolay (1558).

Pilgrims to the site would gather bits and pieces of the petrified wood which would be used as charms to ward off evil. When they encountered the anchors, they had no doubt about their association with the Ark. They often carved one big cross to represent Noah and smaller crosses representing his family.



The huge anchors would have been suspended from the keel of the ship. This was a common practice among ancient mariners to stabilize a heavy ship and ensure that the bow is always facing the on-coming waves. A "top heavy" ship, such as the Ark, could easily be capsized by a wave approaching from the side. This is yet further proof that Noah's Ark was a reality and that it has indeed been found in Turkey.

You are a Fool!

Not everyone bears same name with your Father. I am not a mugu, your father is.

If you watched the videos and read the write up, the demons in you would know if they found animal droppings there or not.
I guess you are using free data from Mark Zuk. So, you can't watch video.

Oponu!

About 15 miles from the ark is the village of Arzep, formerly known as the Village of Eight,

This is where the sea anchor stones were cut off the ark and landed underwater in this area. Arzep is its old Armenian name, but the Turks have a more contemporary name of Siglaksulu. We use the Arzep older name. Arzep is also the area where Noah's family lived after the Flood.

The region around the ark has a rich history of evidence identifying this area as the correct landing place for the ark.

The valley below the ark is interpreted as The Valley of Eight. (Noah, his wife and Six Children)

The name for the mountain where the ark rests is interpreted as Doomsday mountain.

The village where the majority of the anchor stones are found is called Arzep or The Place of Eight.

The pictures of the anchor Stones are below

So the wooden ark landed on a stone in a village in Turk, the water dried up, we will have to make do with the picture of the Stones, now lemme check which stone I prefer.
BTW, who wrote those things on those stones, pls don't tell me that it is either Noah or all the Eight wrote it.
The Place of the Eight, the Valley of the Eight .

Well that is the way the Archaeologists met them. One of the stones has Eight crosses on it One very big, another one a bit smaller and six small one.
It was interpreted as to represent. The Eight survivals of the flood. Noah , his wife and six children.

The Turkish Government was later part of the Project because they felt they can't just watch the Americans take glory of a thing found in their backyard.

Well in the Bible his Mission was likened to the Mission of Christ. Jesus himself said "Just like the days of Noah, when they wined and dine, giving their daughters out in marriage, so, would be the coming of the son of man"

Therefore if it was God that told him to build an Ark, and the same sent Jesus for the salvation of men, Then that same God must have given the inspiration to use Crosses as a symbol to represent himself and his Family. The Ark was to save people from destruction and Jesus coming was to save people from the destruction too.

On that big stone is Eight crosses. The Archaeologists termed it to me the surviving Eight.

The question me and you should ask ourselves is How would a structure as big as the size of the Ark (Same size as the bible described it.found On the spot the bible said it landed) get to the top of the mountain. With several Chambers made of wood. Who took it up and with what was it taken up? With Crane?

If it was a group of people who built it, why didn't the people around or the government know about it. And for how many years would they build such without the people knowing. And why would they go through such stress to deceive anyone? Hhhm. Food for thought for any doubter.

Remain blessed Anty Bro.

Ron Wyatt




Ronald Eldon Wyatt (2 June 1933 – August 4, 1999) was an adventurer noted for advocating the Durupınar site as the site of Noah's Ark, along with almost 100 other Bible-related alleged discoveries. He has been criticized by scientists, historians, biblical scholars, as well as some creationists.

I saw this post on Wikipedia too.
He was criticized by Scientists, Historians,Biblical scholars as well as creationists.

So, how is this strange. People must criticize you for anything. Some of these guys believed he came to outshine them in their profession.

The good thing is that he worked with lots of Scientists and Archaeologists on his mission.

I always tell people before you criticise anything take time to study it.
I believe if you watched the videos you won't doubt the discovery.

All the samples gotten on the site were taken to the Lab for tests. Scientists confirmed the discovery and tests. Historians confirmed it , Bible scholars confirmed it. So its no big if a group of people criticised him.

It is a normal thing I think.

My guy anyone can call you anything. It does not make you less who you are. They may call him Indiana Jones, or Gulliver.

You talk as if it was Whyte alone that was Involved.

The first person that discovered it was not Whyte it was a Turkish Military Pilot.

"In 1959, Turkish army captain Llhan Durupinar discovered an unusual shape while examining aerial photographs of his country. The smooth shape, larger than a football field, stood out from the rough and rocky terrain at an altitude of 6,300 feet near the Turkish border with Iran."


The Federal Government of Turkey was part of the Excavation too
Were they lying.

With all the Years involved in the Excavation and all.

You can't kill the truth Never!


Let me tell you about a guy who wasn't having a girlfriend for almost two years in his area. Some guys started calling him impotent and the news circulated through their street. The guy was just a born again who decided that No more girlfriends until a wife material is found.

Lastly the guy married and the wife gave birth to twins. And the mouth of his mockers shut for ever.

What am I driving at?

It doesn't matter what they call Whyte.
Its not New Atheists on Nairaland call Christians many names and it doesnt change a thing about who they are.

Explain to everyone here.

How did a structure as big as that got to the mountain top. Several thousand feet above Sea Level.

Its easy to make light and to make jest of the truth but it doesn't change the substance of the truth.

How did that Enormous Thing get to that spot.

That's the question.

Be Sincere to yourself my guy.

crucifix was never identified with Judaism which was the religion that existed before Jesus apostles started christainity.....
Noah wasn't a Christian.
crucifix is associated with christainity not Judaism which was the religion Noah and his family practised.

I understand your point that he used it for his gain.
But if we look at it from this angle that right from the onset he was not funded by anyone. He took it upon himself to see to the bottom of the research using his money since when he started in the 70s into the 90s before the Turkish government joined in quest.
Don't you think its not too bad or wrong to think of making money out of the expedition. With all the artifacts he got from all his trouble.

Don't you think if he was a Nigerian he would have done worst.

The bone of contention here therefore is the money making aspect but did he succeed in his quest. Anyways thanks for all the response.

Stay blessed bro.
