This slide show is designed to give you strong visual evidence that the remains of the ark of Noah lie on a mountain 17 miles south of Mount Ararat, in eastern Turkey. The ark ruins are situated in the "mountains of Urartu" ( hary urartu), as recorded in the Bible in Genesis 8:4. The very popular Mount Ararat will never produce an "ark of Noah," unless there were two Noahs and two arks. All of the pertinent evidence for Noah's ark and his post flood city "Mesha," ( later called Naxuan ), is found on this mountain, named anciently "Cordu," (which means "Mountain of the Kurds" ). It is also called, by the local Kurds, "Mashu-r," an ancient name of the ark mountain found in Akkadian-Babylonian flood story, "The Epic of Gilgamesh" ( "Mount Mashu" ) and as known as "Mesha" in Genesis 10:30, a beginning place from which Noah's Shemetic sons of Yocktan are said to have dwelt. In Shemetic both words are spelled msh, so logically then, they are the same place. The town of Uzengili was once called Nasar, before 1948 when the ark appeared. This name was the precise Akkadian - Babylonian name for Noah's town and mountain nsr supposedly pronounced "Nisir," as best the philologists can recover the exact phonetic sound. This ancient name for the village just adjacent to the ark is a critical point in the identification of the site. Ancient writers called this second town (city) " when people began to move away form Naxuan....Seron." Seron became Nasar in reality, and this city has also been identified by the present author.

High above the present location of the ark-mold impression at Uzengili, at 6,200 feet above sealevel, seen in the first picture, is the escarpment of Mesha (Mashu), under which lie the ruins of the ancient lost city of NAXUAN, at its base high on the mountain at 7,400 feet above sealevel. This is also the place the ark first landed, long before it slid downhill to its final rest. This present author is the discoverer of these two places, and in June of 1997, the first map of Naxuan, was registered in the Library of Congress copyright department.
