Actually, no. What if the wood is dated at 4800-5000 yr old? If it is not the Ark and is a fraud, it’s a fraud built many hundreds of years ago, as there is no record of its construction. So, how would someone (actually many people) find enough wood all dated the same at several thousand years old, where they have no way to date the wood they find? If all the wood dates as being 5000 yr old, there would be no way to explain its construction unless it was built 5000 yr ago. If it was built 5000yr ago, there is no way to explain what it’s doing at the 13000’ level on the side of a mountain.
So, if the wood all dates as being this old.....
If it is a fraud, I sure would like to know how they got lava to cover part of it.

Mount Ararat was most notably Volcanically active around 3000 b.c. and a few times since. You will notice the lava flow covering the wooden beams in some places and actually ending the beams as they burnt through them in attached picture (left center). Hard to plant something like this. Either this is Noah’s Ark or an old man-made structure
