A:According to the story in Genesis, Noah did not build the Ark on top of a mountain, it floated to the top of Mount Ararat during the biblical Flood. This gives great emphasis to the scale of the Flood, since Ararat is the highest peak in the Middle East.

Did Noah and his family left the ark on Mount Horeb?

The book of Genesis didn't indicate where Noah and his family left the ark. It just indicated that the ark settled on a mountain in the Ararat range. A popular Christian belief has tended towards the actual Mount Ararat within the Ararat range. According to the Qu'ran, the particular mountain top was Mount Judi. In between these two longstanding suggestions has been a range of possibilities in term of final resting place. But among those possibilities, Mount Horeb though considered most holy hasn't tended to number in the final pool. In fact, scholars still aren't sure exactly where this mountain of God was located.


Where is Noah's Ark?

Answer 1Genesis 8 v4And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat.Mt. Ararat is in modern day Turkey.Answer 2Disregarding the question as to whether the Noah story actually took place, if Noah's Ark was made out of wood, pitch, and tar as the Bible records and it landed on Mount Ararat (in eastern Turkey near the Armenian border), it would have rotted by this point in history. Wood exposed on the top of a mountain would not last more than 100 years do to the moisture of the rain and numerous bacterias that feed on wood. It has been a few thousand years.Answer 3A team of evangelical Christian explorers claim they've found the remains of Noah's ark beneath snow and volcanic debris on Turkey's Mount Ararat.

Has anyone seen Noah's ark?

Many people have looked for Noah's Ark in Turkey, hoping to find any evidence that the Book of Genesis is historically true. The main focus for these searches has been Mount Ararat and, in fact, at least one person claimed to have finally found it. Subsequent, more objective, visits demonstrated that what was there was merely a geological formation that could, in the right light, look something like the bow of a ship. As long as there are religious people in the world, they will probably keep looking for Noah's Ark.
