Mount Ararat and Noah's Ark, Turkey

Explore Mount Ararat and Noah's Ark!

Mount Ararat (Armenian: Արարատ, Ararat or Մասիս, Masis; Kurdish: Çiyayê Agirî; Seljuk period: Eğri Dağ[) is the highest mountain in Turkey, with an altitude of 5,137 meters. Mount Ararat is at the eastern tip of Turkey, 16 km west of Iran and 32 km south of Armenia.
65% of the mountain is in the province of Iğdır, the remaining 35% is within the borders of the province of Ağrı.

The Turkish name of the mountain, Mount Ararat, has been used in the language since the Late Middle Ages. The traditional Persian name for the mountain, Kūh-e Nūḥ (Persian: کوه نوح), means Mount Noah. The mountain named çiyayê Agirî in Kurdish means "Fiery Mountain" in this language.
The name Ararat is a Greek variation of the word אֲרָרָט[ (Hebrew pronunciation, "Ararat") used in Hebrew for the Urartians who lived in the Armenian Highlands in ancient times. Although the mountain is generally known by this name in the world, no local people who lived in the region of the mountain used this name for the mountain. In Classical Antiquity, especially in Strabo's Geographica, the peaks of Mount Ararat are referred to as Ἄβος (Abos) and Νίβαρος (Nibaros) in Ancient Greek.
Although the traditional Armenian name of the mountain is Masis (Մասիս), the names Ararat and Masis are used equally widely in present-day Armenia.

Mount Ararat consists of two peaks. These are Atatürk Peak of 5,137 meters (Great Ararat) and İnönü Peak of 3,898 meters (Küçük Ararat), which are composed of basalt up to 4000 meters and andesite lavas at a later height, showing the characteristics of a volcanic mountain.

With its height of 5137 m, Mount Ararat is not only the highest peak of the country, but also the only mountain with an ice cap of 10 km² on it. The current permanent snow limit on Mount Ararat exceeds 4300 meters (Arkel, 1973). Blumenthal (1958) has calculated that the permanent snow line went down to 3000 meters in the Pleistocene. The cover glacier on the summit of Mount Ararat, a volcanic mountain whose summit is covered with snow and skullcap glacier that does not melt for four seasons, is Turkey's largest glacier.

A total of 11 glacial tongues hanging from the ice caps and varying between 1 and 2.5 km in length reached 4200 m on the southern skirts of the mountain and 3900 m on the northern skirts. The largest of these languages ​​is found in the Helldere Valley to the northeast of the crater. Due to the high slope, glacier fragments that broke off from time to time also led to the formation of a dead glacier (regenerated glacier) covered with debris in the lower parts of the valley (around 2370 m).

Moraines on the skirts of Mount Ararat cover a much smaller area compared to other mountains. The reason for this can be explained as the absence of developed valleys, except for the Cennetdere Valley, the absence of high inclined peaks to cover the top of the glacier with weathered material, and the materials from the volcano, which is active from time to time, cover the older moraine deposits.

It has been proben that the arc wasnt there

If the image in this video is supposedly Noah’s Ark, then we would have to carefully what was written by Moses in Genesis Chapter 8 which states quite clearly that “Noah’s Ark rested on the mountains of Ararat, ” which are in the region of the Caucasus, also known as ancient Urartu, where the elevation is 17, 000 feet. I

There are two primary reasons why Noah’s Ark may never be discovered. First off, the wood of the Ark would have been very valuable after the flood. Noah and his family would have needed wood for any number of projects. It’s possible that Noah and his family or their descendants deconstructed the Ark and used the wood for other purposes. Second, even if Noah and his family left the Ark intact, approximately 4, 500 years have passed since that time. A wooden structure exposed to harsh natural elements in the mountains for 4, 500 years would most likely decompose or decay into virtual nothingness.

Nope, sorry. For starters, the Genesis Flood story contains many literary clues that its writers (and original audience) were not intended to narrate an actual series of events. The story employs the literary device known as “hyperbole” throughout, describing a massive ark which holds representatives of “every living creature on Earth”, and a flood which flows over the tops of the highest mountains in the world. These are not meant to challenge readers to figure out the practicality of such descriptions, but rather they are important clues that we are dealing with a theological story rather than ancient journalism. AND the scientific and historical evidence is crystal clear: there has never been a global flood that covered the entire earth, nor do all modern animals and humans descend from the passengers of a single vessel.

Noahs ark is not on mount Ararat its in a valley

[aaronstandingbear]

You missed it entirely. Why? It's not a stretch to find after all. It is quite accepted by science in Turkey and other scientists from around the world who have studied the ancient remains. The title is very missleading seeing as you couldnt find it in all your flying about the mountain. Please explain .

Big Ararat and Small Ararat, Masis and Sis are the symbol of Armenia, this is an Armenian shrine temporarily occupied by the criminal tribe of the Turks. Everyone should know this.
