Resit, a Kurdish farmer, found the Ark in 1948 (Talk.Origins)

Claim CH505.6:


 * In 1948, a Kurdish farmer named Resit reported finding the prow of Noah's ark about two-thirds the way up Ararat, protruding from ice. The wood was black and too hard for him to cut off a piece. Based on this account, A. J. Smith organized an expedition, hoping to use Resit as a guide. However, they could not locate Resit or the ark.

CreationWiki response:

Talk Origins's conclusion is just as much speculation as LaHaye's and Morris'.
