Dr. Joel Klenck, 100% Noah's Ark, Scientific Archaeological Method and Theory

"Dr. Joel Klenck utilizes scientific (processual) archaeological method and theory to determine the Ararat Archaeological Site is 100% Noah's Ark because all the features at the Site match a Trot-on / Trot-off maritime barge, while rejecting all null hypotheses, because the archaeological traits are unlike all land-based structures such as a Kurgan burial, temple or cult site, fortification, pastoral animal pen, palace, or domestic dwellings.

Scholars from the secular left and religious right must stop the willful degradation and illegal artifact removal from Noah's Ark, a holocaust of historic preservation, and mitigate the loss of this precious archaeological site that is valuable to science, three Abrahamic faiths, the Republic of Türkiye, and surrounding nations.
