From Fox News: A group of international researchers say they’re getting closer and closer to identifying the possible remains of Noah’s Ark – and new test results are promising.
The focus of the research, the Durupinar site in eastern Turkey, was first identified in the 1950s.
For decades, it’s been speculated that the boat-shaped site once harbored Noah’s Ark, but no definitive proof has emerged. Now, an organization called Noah’s Ark Scans believes that recent soil samples point toward the site once housing “ancient wood.”
Researchers collected soil samples from the site last September and analyzed them through this winter. The results “show significantly higher levels of organic matter and potassium compared to surrounding areas,” according to a recent statement from the organization.
“[The results] provide compelling evidence of a unique, potentially man-made structure beneath the surface, distinct from the surrounding mudflow,” Noah’s Ark Scans said.
The 538-foot-long boat-shaped mound at the Durupinar site reportedly features the same dimensions as described in the Book of Genesis.
In addition, ground-penetrating radar scans captured layers in the soil that match the Bible’s description of the boat having three decks. The radar has detected what appears to be a 13-foot tunnel running through the center of the formation.
According to the Bible, Noah’s Ark came to rest on the ‘mountains of Ararat’. The formation is located just 18 miles south of Mount Ararat.
Andrew Jones, an independent researcher, revealed the results of his multi-year project in an interview with the Christian Broadcasting Network earlier this month.
“We’re not expecting something that’s fully preserved. What’s left is the chemical imprint, pieces of wood and in the ground, the shape of a hall,” Jones explained.

Below is a fascinating thread of posts on X from April 11:
1. The Bible says Noah’s Ark came to rest “on the mountains of Ararat.”
For centuries, explorers searched the peak of Mt. Ararat itself.
But in 1959, a Turkish army captain spotted something unusual in the foothills—22 miles away.

3. Locals had long believed the site was significant.

5. Radar scans showed rectangular voids in the exact outline of a ship.

7. Even more strange: plants grow differently inside the formation.
Vegetation fades faster, and certain species don’t thrive.

9. Skeptics point out:
-No wooden beams have been extracted
-Geological formations can be deceptive
-The Ark story itself may be symbolicBut the evidence keeps piling up. pic.twitter.com/mTAMPE383e

11. Noah’s Ark is one of the oldest flood myths—but not the only one.
Stories of a great deluge stretch from Mesopotamia to China, from the Bible to the Epic of Gilgamesh.

13. No excavation has been approved yet.
But the team behind these findings plans to keep testing, scanning, and publishing.
What do you think?
-A misunderstanding?
-A hoax?
-Proof of the real ark? pic.twitter.com/DrRxkITmGK— Middle-Aged Dad Life (@MADadTrips) April 11, 2025
