Could new analysis of a site associated with the biblical flood shine light on the account from the Book of Genesis?
Analysis of a site near Turkey’s Mount Ararat in the Middle East suggests human activity took place there between 5500 BC and 3500 BC, according to the New York Post.
A team of Turkish and American academics analyzed the site, according to Turkey’s Hürriyet news outlet.
The “Mount Ararat and Noah’s Ark Research Team” began studies in the area in Dec. 2022.
“According to the first findings obtained from the studies, it is thought that there have been human activities in the region since the Chalcolithic period, that is, between the years 5500 and 3000 BC,” Agri Ibrahim Cecen University Vice Rector Prof. Dr. Faruk Kaya said of the site.
“Clayey materials, marine materials and seafood” were identified at the site.
The site in question is about 18 miles south of Mount Ararat.
