| Twenty
seven year-old Ron
Wyatt, along with
thousands of other
people, read the
following article in
Life Magazine about a
strange boat-shaped
formation at an
elevation of about 6,350
feet, in the mountains
of Ararat.
Not on Mt. Ararat, but in
the mountains of Ararat
about 12 miles from the
summit of Mt. Ararat. |
Excerpt
from Life magazine...
"While
routinely examining
aerial photos of his
country, a Turkish army
captain suddenly gaped
at the picture shown
above. There, on a
mountain 20 miles south
of Mt. Ararat, the
biblical landfall of
Noah's Ark, was a
boat-shaped form about
500 feet long. The
captain passed on the
word. Soon an expedition
including American
scientists set out for
the site.
At
7,000 feet, in the midst
of crevasses and
landslide debris, the
explorers found a clear,
grassy area shaped like
a ship and rimmed with
steep, packed-earth
sides. Its dimensions
are close to those given
in Genesis: 'The length
of the ark shall be 300
cubits, the breadth of
it 50 cubits, and the
height of it 30 cubits,'
that is, 450x75x45 feet.
A quick two-day survey
revealed no sign that
the object was man made.
Yet a scientist in the
group says nothing in
nature could create such
a symmetrical shape. A
thorough excavation may
be made another year to
solve the mystery."
