Turkish Explorer Claims To Have Found Noah's Ark Remnants
Israel News ^ | January 27, 2008

Posted on 02/02/2008 7:04:02 PM PST by Dog Gone

A team of scientists from Hong Kong and Turkey believe they have discovered the remains of Noah's Ark on Mount Ararat in Turkey. After many years of searching, in the summer of 2007, the fourth expedition yielded results.

Turkish mountaineering expert and explorer Mr. Ahmet Ertugrul came upon a cave at an altitude of over 4200 meters and inside found parts of a wooden structure. Samples were sent to Hong Kong University and the results clarified the findings were part of a petrified wooden structure

In an exclusive interview with Infolive.tv, Mr. Ertugrul talks about the discovery and plans to search two other sites on the mountain where he believes there are other remains of Noah's Ark. Noah's Ark International supplied Infolive.tv with video footage.

Its hard to keep up with all the arks that they find.

It's not hard for me to keep up. There was a flood and Noah built an Ark. They don't have to find it to make it the true. Nonetheless, it appears they may well have found it. Surely, you aren't discounting the scientists, etc. I would think you would be happy about this finding./s

I didn’t know it was lost

You're right, it wasn't lost - it just wasn't found - and by their seeking, it appears they found it. What's really lost are unbelievers and God is waiting for them to find Him. And He's not lost - but one has to seek Him.

Where does one find Bonomo’s Turkish Taffy today? The last time I had one was around 1953.

I think it was proven last year that this particular Ark belonged to a gentleman named “Noel”.

I can still remember slapping against the concrete to break it into pieces. Check this out.

Around 1955 my dentist made me swear off Bonomos' Turkish Taffy when it pulled a filling! I still ate it but I would put it in the freezer and when it was frozen I would smack it on the kitchen counter. Then I would put a piece in my mouth and suck it. No chewing allowed. Remember this was the technique offered during those Bonomo's commercial!

Yum!

I believe the Jewish biblical documents say the ark
rested on the “mountains of Ararat”...it doesn’t say
it rested on”what will be called Mt.Ararat in the 20th century.”

So the researchers will need lots evidence to prove it is
Noahs ark....although it would be possible that some wood
was removed from the ark, and used as structural support
for a cave...

I would prefer the ARK of the COVENANT, like in Indiana Jones.

“So the researchers will need lots evidence to prove it is

Just what I was thinking.

And... That it might be possible that there are multiple ‘discoveries’ of the Ark, because it’s hull and beamwork were salvaged for other use, and taken to different locations.

I guess they had some ‘Ark Recyclers’ back then.

This article/video (at the link) described finding evidence in location A, and wanting to later search B and C, due to the local stories about the Ark being in three pieces.

Who knows how far it’s components are spread?

Watered covered mountains up to 4200 meters? Where did it all go? How is it I can breath and stand on land?

“Watered covered mountains up to 4200 meters? Where did it all go?”

I would imagine it went back to where it came from: Inside the earth. “And the fountains of the great deep opened....”

Wasn't’ Noah’s beaching on Mt. Ararat one of the first beachings due to ancient global warming? Noah might have beached himself due to sunburn from Ozone depletion.

So, the earth was hollow, and now contains water which has the volume of 4200 meters by the circumference of the earth? I guess we’ll never get thirsty. I wonder why we never come across water in that amount when drilling for water, we could grow wheat in the sahara.

This whole discussion reveals a lack of Bible study.

Maybe Mt. Ararat is Noah’s Ark.
