A group of Chinese and Turkish evangelical explorers say wooden remains they have discovered on Mount Ararat in eastern Turkey are the remains of Noah's Ark.

The group claims that carbon dating proves the relics are 4,800 years old, meaning they date to around the same time the ark was said to be afloat. Mt. Ararat has long been suspected as the final resting place of the craft by evangelicals and literalists hoping to validate biblical stories.

OK, enough evolution talk.

On an unrelated note, what's the deal with all these italics?

Have all the fonts on your computer turned italic or something?

No, Granny's signature wasn't formatted properly (probably due to the forum update), and had font and italic tags being closed wrongly. That meant that the rest of the screen was italic. Fixed now.

Latecomer to the 'ark' discussion.

So, this 'Ron Wyatt': he isn't telling the whole truth in his vids then? It's just that I've got several dusty vids on various topics from Red Sea Ramains found to Remains of Sodom & Gomorrah - all by 'Ryatt' & taking up valuable space. What do y'all suggest I do with them?

So, is he ryatt or wrong ¿)

Archaeologist Answers Why Prehistoric Sites Associated with Noah's Ark on Mount Ararat Were Recently Discovered

Archaeologist elucidates why the discovery of prehistoric sites associated with Noah’s Ark occurred in the last decade.

Miami, FL -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/19/2013 -- "For centuries, the account of Noah’s Ark, a Biblical and Quranic account where an ancient family survived a worldwide deluge on a massive wood vessel and repopulated the globe, has fascinated explorers and religious adherents of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. In 2009, a Chinese religious organization, Noah’s Ark Ministries, Inc., with a Kurdish guide, a Turkish geologist, archaeologist, and government ministers announced the discovery of the Ark of Noah. In 2011, Dr. Joel Klenck, a Harvard University educated archaeologist and current president of the archaeological contract firm PRC, Inc., confirmed the veracity of the site and its prehistoric origin during the Late Epipaleolithic Period (13,100 to 9,600 B.C.). In this report, the archaeologist opines why the discovery of prehistoric sites on Mount Ararat only occurred during the last decade.

Klenck states, “The first problem is the assumption that this site is only a recent discovery. This claim is not correct. For centuries, there have been reports by a wide array of people from different periods—including the Jewish historian Josephus in the first century and Russian military officers in the nineteenth century—confirming the presence of a monumental, ancient wood structure on Mount Ararat, which they associated with the Ark.”
