14Make thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch.

15And this is the fashion which thou shalt make it of: The length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits.

16A window shalt thou make to the ark, and in a cubit shalt thou finish it above; and the door of the ark shalt thou set in the side thereof; with lower, second, and third stories shalt thou make it.

-Genesis 6

Well, I wonder if they can analyize the petrified wood sample and tell whether or not it is gopher wood?

And what exactly is 'gopher wood'?
How could you tell the difference between it, and lets say, 'beaver wood'?

“Well, I wonder if they can analyize the petrified wood sample and tell whether or not it is gopher wood?”

And can they find any evidence that it once was covered with pitch?
