Noah's Ark discovered in the Mountains of Ararat.

"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)

Did you catch it? Read it again. Everytime you read it (praying) God will show you something new! It doesn't say mountain. It does say "tops of the mountains" and "mountains of Ararat"

Where are the mountains of Ararat?

Noah's ark is real, the bible is the truth. Read the true story of finding Noah's Ark and the artifacts found there. In Turkey there is a museum now built near the ark. Even the anchor stones are still there to see. Did lava really preserve this ancient bible artifact? Discover for yourself. Dig into Ron Wyatt's discoveries.

1960 original discovery from airplane. 

While routinely examining aerial photos of his country, a Turkish army captain suddenly gaped a picture... There, on a mountain 20 miles south of Mt. Ararat, the biblical landfall of Noah's Ark, was a boat-shaped form about 500-515 feet long. The captain passed on the word. Soon an expedition including American scientists set out for the site.

At 7,000 feet, in the midst of crevasses and landslide debris, the explorers found a clear, grassy area shaped like a ship and rimmed with steep, packed-earth sides. Its dimensions are close to those given in Genesis: 'The length of the ark shall be 300 cubits, the breadth of it 50 cubits, and the height of it 30 cubits,' that is, 450x75x45 feet. A quick two-day survey was made. A scientist in the group says "a ship-like object that has almost unbroken symmetry."

Turkish officials and Ron Wyatt make official decision, 1986 

February 1987 - Ron meets with the Governor of the Agri District, Mr. Sevket Ekinci. The December 1986 decision was positive - it was the official decision of members of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, of Internal Affairs, and researchers from Ataturk University, among others, that the "boat-shaped formation" did indeed contain the remains of Noah's Ark!

Plans were made for the official dedication of the site, which would include Ron as guest of honor as the "discoverer" of the fact that it was truly the remains of Noah's Ark.
June 20, 1987 - Ron participates in the Dedication of "Noah's Ark."

On the mountainside overlooking the former "boat shaped object", which had now been proclaimed by the Turkish Government to be "Noah's Ark", were gathered a large number of dignitaries, from the local level to the national level, as well as high ranking military. Journalists were also present.

The plans were made public for a visitors' center to be erected on the spot. The governor spoke the dedication in Turkish and then he lifted the first shovel full of dirt - the groundbreaking of the new visitors' center. Ron, as guest of honor, lifted the second shovel full of dirt and then other dignitaries participated in the ceremony.

True Story of the Noah's Ark Discovery! 

Noah's Ark Discovery - Early Years
In September. 1960, 27 year-old Ron Wyatt, along with thousands of other people, read the following article in Life Magazine about a strange boat-shaped formation in the mountains of Ararat:
Noah's Ark: The Action Years
Ron and Dave Fasold arrived in Turkey on March 20, 1985. Meeting them there was Samran Al Moteri, the Saudi Arabian prince who had come to visit Ron earlier in Madison, Tennessee...

Original 1959 Photo of the "Boat Shape".
The picture was taken in 1959 by the Turkish Captain Ilhan Durupinar during a NATO mapping mission. (He was still alive in Sept. 2007.)

Anchor Stones were used by Noah 

"Walking over miles and miles of rugged terrain, one of the men motioned for Ron to take his photo by a very large standing rock. Only when he looked through the viewfinder did Ron realize that this "rock" was identical to the anchor stones found in the Mediterranean Sea that he had seen in archaeological books. That is except for one thing -- this "rock" was many, many times larger!" - Ron Wyatt -

Drogue stones were a feature of ancient ships, and were the ancient equivalent of a storm anchor. They have been found in the Nile and elsewhere in the Mediterranean area, and like the stones found by Wyatt, they are heavy and flat with a hole for connecting a line at one end. Their purpose was to create drag in the water or along shallow sandy bottoms: the stone was attached to one end of a boat, and the drag produced would cause the bow or stern to face into the wind and the oncoming wind-blown waves. These anchor stones are found surrounding the site of the ark-shape.

Noah's First Settlement at Naxuan 

December 04, 2008 (Newsletter from Anchorstone.com)
In 1998 Professor Michelson with his organization, SEPDAC, took a team to explore the area above the final resting place of the Ark. This revealed ancient stone foundations of buildings, and human remains. Possibly the first settlement after the flood.

An examination of recent photos is proof that this area was well-established, and further examination will be exciting. A number of artifacts have been retrieved, and will be thoroughly studied. We will be back in the area this coming spring for further investigation.

How did Noah take care of the Animals? CLICK HERE
Therefore, Noah probably stored the food and water near each animal. Even better, drinking water could have been piped into troughs, just as the Chinese have used bamboo pipes for this purpose for thousands of years. The use of some sort of self-feeders, as is commonly done for birds, would have been relatively easy and probably essential. Animals that required special care or diets were uncommon and should not have needed an inordinate amount of time from the handlers. Even animals with the most specialized diets in nature could have been switched to readily sustainable substitute diets. Of course, this assumes that animals with specialized diets today were likewise specialized at the time of the Flood.

Genesis Flood - "great deep burst open" 

Video shows the great deep bursting open.

"...on the same day all the fountains of the great deep burst open, and the floodgates of the sky were opened. The rain fell upon the earth for forty days and forty nights." (Genesis 7:11-12)
powered by Youtube

Global Flood Model 

If there was a Flood, most living things would have perished, and so we would expect a 'cut-off' point at this time. In other words, going into the past, we should reach a period of time in which there is a sharp reduction in the number of specimens compared to the period just older than that, and as we went forward in time, we would expect a gradual buildup, as plant and animal populations recovered their numbers.

Such a study has been done by Dr Robert Whitelaw. Using the 15,000 published dates, he grouped them into 500 year 'blocks' and found a dramatic drop-off about 5,000 years ago, with a worldwide distribution (Speak to the Earth, Ed. G. Howe. Presb. & Ref. Pub. Co, p.. 331).

    This is an interesting article. I read in a Sept. 2000 issue of The Sun that the Ark was found in New York Catskills Mountains in the USA...I believe that was so not true. This finding by Ron Wyatt sounds closer to the truth. Once again it proves the Bible doesn't lie.

    I am only a young child and i am ashamed for questioning God. I have always believed in the Holy Bible but since todays society was very doubting in God, i began to doubt too, I began to interpret the bible in a metphorical way.

    Thank you for opening my eyes, I was once just a blind lamb but now I am returning to my shepphard. Thank you Ron Wyatt you have helped me in the greatest way, showing me to God. I am sorry for people who still begin to doubt God as he has given you the strongest evidence. He put it right under your nose but too high in our might to even consider the truth. Open up your hearts ears and eyes.

    He has given the Holy Spirit to our hearts, the word of the Gospel to our ears and now evidence to our eyes. I am very ashamed in whoever will not accept God at this point.

    God Bless me, I may be yet just a small child in the womb of the world but I know if i have God i have all the knowledge on my lips.

    God bless all,

    Christian Apologetics sure is an interesting subject. I am sure that I should know more about Christian Apologetics than I do because there are sure a lot of people who seem to know quite a bit, however I have yet to begin to understand the Gospel of Jesus Christ; I have yet to reach the foothills of that Mt. Everest.

    The Bible says that the Gospel "is the power of God unto salvation." Let us therefore preach the Gospel that souls may be saved, and not fool around wasting all of our energy trying to figure out every detail of Christian Apologetics.

    Link to my page. I have written a lens detailing the Gospel, and calling for salvation. Who cares if someone understands Christian Apologetics if they end up in Hell?

    To the comment: "Unfortunately, this whole thing is bogus." one of the original members needed "further exploration and analysis of the landform" - Yes I believe more analysis should be done. If I didn't believe this is Noah's Ark, it wouldn't have become a lens. To me the evidence is undeniable, this is the tip of the iceberg, God Bless. Dig further into Ron Wyatt's discoveries.
