Investigator Jimmy Corsetti has identified a reference on an ancient map pointing to the location of Noah’s Ark, and this location aligns with a real site in Turkey, according to a report by the New York Post.
In 1587, Italian cartographer Urbano Monte finalized his “Planisphaerium,” an immense tapestry composed of 60 hand-drawn sheets. When assembled, this artwork measures three meters in diameter, making it the most extensive early world map ever created.
Corsetti believes Mount Ararat, situated in present-day Turkey, is the site. In this vicinity lies the so-called “Durupinar formation,” a rock structure remarkably similar in shape to a vessel. Its dimensions closely match the biblical description of the ark.
The research team from Noah’s Ark Scans employed ground-penetrating radar in this area, uncovering a network of underground corridors and cavities that bear a resemblance to the internal structure of a three-decked ship. Soil samples analyzed from within the formation revealed a threefold increase in organic matter and a 38% higher concentration of potassium compared to surrounding soil. Soil scientists attribute these findings to the decomposition of wood. Furthermore, fossilized corals and seashells have been discovered nearby.
