Researchers report wood found 30 feet underground at Turkey's Durupınar site

Researchers studying the Durupınar Formation in Turkey, a ship-shaped geological feature, say they have discovered charred and uncharred wood nearly 30 feet below the surface. The team links the find to the biblical story of Noah's Ark, though the claim has not been independently verified. Earlier radar scans and soil analysis have also been cited in support of their argument. Scientists outside the team would need to confirm the findings before the site's origins can be established.
