Noah’s Ark

In a mountainous area of eastern Turkey, a team of American researchers believes they may have uncovered the remnants of one of history's most legendary vessels—Noah’s Ark. Working at a mysterious and intriguing site known as the Durupınar Formation, the group was stunned to discover what they describe as a “tunnel” beneath a boat-shaped geological formation that may match the Bible’s description of the vessel that supposedly came to rest after the Great Flood more than 4,300 years ago. According to the Book of Genesis, Noah’s Ark was a massive wooden ship built to preserve humanity and animal life from a catastrophic global deluge. After 150 days, the Bible says, the ark came to rest “on the mountains of Ararat.”
