...whether it is natural or not! One thing I know for certain: Even if an entire ship were to be excavated—with the exact biblical dimensions, dated via carbon-14 to the correct period (hypothetically), and bearing the message "Built by Noah and Sons" engraved on the hull—people would still find a way to dismiss it as a hoax, a psychological operation, or some other absurd conspiracy theory intended to discredit the Bible! The truth is: Some people believe regardless of the evidence. And others refuse to believe, even in the face of overwhelming proof! That is the godless nature of man!
But there is one more clue: In the Book of Enoch, Noah is described as a child of extraordinary appearance. Lamech initially even suspects that he is the child of angels—or a descendant of the Watchers—because of his unusual looks. Enoch dismisses this theory regarding his lineage, explaining that while the boy is of a "special nature," there is nothing amiss with his genetic makeup. Based on a cubit of 54.3 cm, Noah would have stood approximately 2.10 meters tall; this is entirely plausible and would mean that the Ark—measured using Noah’s exceptionally large cubit—would indeed reach a length of 163 meters (matching the length of the structure discovered there). However, I have my doubts based on the shape alone: ​​Noah was not meant to build a ship, but merely a floating box, which rules out the use of curved timber—something that would be required for a ship!
