Noah’s Ark Found?

.
It is reported that a 15-strong team of Chinese and Turkish explorers have found the remains of Noah’s Ark 12,000 feet atop the snow-capped peak of Mount Ararat in Turkey.

References to Noah’s Ark and its landing on Mount Ararat are made in a number of ancient texts in which Noah builds a huge ship and saves mankind and its animals from the Great Deluge that was sent by God to clean the world of its wickedness.

Many people will now be intensely interested in the latest discovery, the site of which is being kept secret until the Turkish government designates it as an archaeological one protected by a UNESCO World Heritage status.

The structure discovered on Mount Ararat has several compartments, possibly made of a cypress wood, and carbon dating has shown the remains to be 4,800 years old. This coincides with the archaeological dating of the Great Flood of around 3,000 BC.

We await the next instalment of this exciting discovery with much interest.
