EBN-The British newspaper, the Daily Mail, reported that a group of international scientists have found evidence claiming they have found the remains of the Prophet Noah’s Ark , which saved humanity more than five thousand years ago from the massive flood that struck planet Earth, and which is mentioned in the Holy Quran and other divine books. According to information published by the British newspaper “Daily Mail,” an international research team from several countries reached this conclusion, stating that the remains of this ship were found in a remote area in Turkey. The newspaper also revealed that work is underway to transform the ship into a tourist attraction so that people from all over the world can see the Noah’s Ark.
Scientists say they have found a boat-shaped mound in Türkiye that was submerged in water 5,000 years ago, the same period as the Great Flood. An international team of researchers claims that a boat-shaped mound located 18 miles (30 kilometers) south of Mount Ararat in Turkey is actually the fossilized remains of a wooden ship . The mound, called the Durupinar Formation, is a 163-meter-long (538-foot-tall) geological formation made of a type of iron ore called limonite. The formation has long fascinated researchers because its shape and structure are almost identical to the ship mentioned in the Quran and other holy scriptures.
According to a Daily Mail report, new evidence suggests that this hill was indeed subjected to a devastating flood 5,000 years ago. This account aligns with the religious narrative of a flood that covered the region between 3000 and 5500 BC.
“Our studies show that this area was home to life during that period and was submerged at some point, raising the possibility of a massive catastrophe,” the researchers said.
“According to preliminary results of Noah’s Ark, it is believed that human activity has existed in this area since the Chalcolithic period,” said lead researcher Professor Faruk Kaya. If true, this would strengthen the claim that the Durupinar Formation is the same ark used by the Prophet Noah to escape the ancient flood.
