The Durupinar Formation, a mysterious boat-shaped formation in the mountains of Ararat, has sparked intense interest among biblical scholars and archaeologists alike. This ancient wonder has been shrouded in mystery for centuries, with many believing it to be the remnants of the ark described in Genesis 6-8.

    I don’t know that this kind of thing really belongs here, but I’m going to leave this up for now.

    Here’s a link with (I think) more info about what OP is sharing: https://www.popularmechanics.com/science/archaeology/a45700571/was-noahs-ark-found/

    The ancient flood stories of the near East and surrounding areas are very interesting stories though. The similarities are obviously cool to take note of, but so are the differences. I’m a fan of Atrahasis, but Gilgamesh gets a lot of love from people too.
