Further research is needed
The vice-rector of Agra Ibrahim Chechen University, Professor Faruk Kaya, presented valuable ideas about the significance of the recent discoveries of the research team of Mount Ararat and Noah’s Ark, emphasizing the correspondence between historical events and geological data.
He emphasized that the biblical flood associated with Noah is believed to have occurred about 5,000 years ago, which is consistent with the team’s findings. Despite the strong dating results that support the local belief that the Durupinar Formation is associated with Noah’s Ark, Professor Kaya stressed that further in-depth research and analysis is needed to definitively confirm the presence of the ship.
