You are right- I missed that. Elsewhere in the Bible it appears that iron started much later- for example, The Philistines had iron, but prevented the Israelites from having it. Archaeologically speaking, the Iron Age was long after the Biblical time of Noah.

Pre-iron age people were sometimes aware of iron. Meteorite iron was not unknown to many cultures. The likelihood that Noah would go around collecting meteorites to put his ship together seems kind of remote, though.

The Iron Age is an archaeological era, referring to a period of time in the prehistory and protohistory of the Old World (Afro-Eurasia) when the dominant toolmaking material was iron. It is commonly preceded by the Bronze Age in Europe and Asia and the Stone Age in Africa, with exceptions. Meteoric iron has been used by humans since at least 3200 BC. Ancient iron production did not become widespread until the development of the ability to smelt iron ore, remove impurities and regulate the amount of carbon in the alloy. The start of the Iron Age proper is considered by many to fall between around 1200 BC and 600 BC, depending on the region.

Iron is so inferior to bronze as a metal that even after smelting was discovered, some cultures, like the Etruscans, preferred to sell the iron they smelted to others, and to use bronze for their tools and weapons.

Iron is cheap and readily available in most places, while copper is not.

Hi Barbarian. Did you watch the video? They found 8% Al metal in the formation. That should be far more impossible than finding iron. Although the site looks overgrown, there are too many unexplained man-made things found in the formation to be ignored. Scientists need to investigate this thoroughly.

According to the video, they found on the ground a bit of metal that had some aluminum in it. Either Noah had worked out the secret to smelting aluminum about 4000 years before anyone else, or possibly, someone at some time in the last few hundred years dropped a small metal object in the area.

One of those.

I think I know which.

Galbraith Laboratories in Tennessee tested it. Did you see how ancient that looked? A lot older than 1808 when Al smelting began.

And ground penetrating radar found ribs of a boat, etc.

This looks an easy one for Mythbusters.

Yep the more evidence that is piled up the greater the disbelief required to ignore it. It's clearly a boat exactly to the description of that given in the Bible.

Did you see the anchor stones? in the valley of the eight.

If you checked your facts you would know this artefact was shown to have been visited by pilgrims during the middle ages and was recognised as Noah's Ark at that time too.

Again, none of this info appears to be new (and much of it appears to be quite old). If you don't have any new info to bring to the table, there really isn't much to talk about.

I had not heard of anchor stones before watching that video. A very clever alternative to ballast.

How long does it take a scrap of metal to look old?

And apparently there was an entire fleet of them. Turkish military observation shows that stone formation to be fairly common around those mountains:

"Iron Age" is a term for when Iron became popular, and the term has nothing to do with when it was first used.

No one seems to be able to produce that item. What happened to it?

According to the video, Ron Wyatt showed this piece of laminated wood on CNN.

It had glue between the layers, nails through the layers and was covered with bitumen.

You said; "The whole "we found the ark" thing has been a cottage industry for decades, and as this thread shows the folks perpetrating it will never lack for gullible buyers."

I said; "If you checked your facts you would know this artefact was shown to have been visited by pilgrims during the middle ages and was recognised as Noah's Ark at that time too."

You said; "Again, none of this info appears to be new (and much of it appears to be quite old). If you don't have any new info to bring to the table, there really isn't much to talk about."


decade
noun
plural noun: decades
1. a period of ten years.

middle ages: A period lasting from the 5th to the 15th century

I don't think you were referring to the the middle ages otherwise you would have said 'centuries' not 'decades'.

Therefore this is new information to you. As I said check your facts.
