Research in Turkey Examines Noah's Ark
The "Noah's Ark Expedition" team is currently conducting excavations at the Durupınar site in eastern Turkey, believed to be the location where Noah's Ark settled according to Jewish, Christian, and Islamic religious narratives. The work began after approval from the Turkish government in May 2026, involving efforts to identify and analyze the geographical formation through digging and examination of collected samples. The project's goal is to discover shared historical evidence related to the story of the flood, bringing together researchers from diverse religious backgrounds, with a final report expected to be released next spring. The site has historically attracted broad interest, and the team, led by Andrew Jones, began their work in July, with samples sent for analysis to several universities, including Bar-Ilan University, to determine their significance for the Noah's Ark story.
