It is titled “Olive the Lionheart” and is about a young woman who travels to Africa in 1910-1911 to search for her fiancé’s grave. Supposedly all the information in the book comes from her actual diarie. At one point in the story, she and her party travel over Lake Chad by canoe. They see a mountain with a cave on top. Their guide tells them it is Noah’s mountain and no white man has ever climbed it…so of course, they climb it. After a difficult start, they make it to the top and inside the cave is an altar. This is written as sort of an aside in the diary-just a part of their travels-but I was curious if an ancient altar had ever been found in this region in a cave on top of a mountain.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12435985577313148072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-688820610845171516.post-40979483669284314382017-12-06T12:50:02.382-07:002017-12-06T12:50:02.382-07:00Those are R1b peoples whose ancestors were in the ...Those are R1b peoples whose ancestors were in the Zagros and Carpathian mountains before Noah's time.

Something really interesting about Noah's sons descendents is that apparentely, there was a migration of Noah's descendents from what is in present day, Iran, toward Shinar, to the east, as the bible states. The bible does not specify why they were in this place, but everything seems to indicate that a migration happened in a very early period after flood. So the migrationftom Africa is not what the Scripture seems to indicateAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-688820610845171516.post-38224861732280627972017-11-26T01:14:05.115-07:002017-11-26T01:14:05.115-07:00Noah's descendents are "Kushites" an...Noah's descendents are "Kushites" and Kush refers to the Upper Nile. The movement of Horite Hebrew out of the Nile into the regions of Turkey and the Black Sea is well documented. We should not be surprised to find parallels flood accounts among those peoples. However, the biblical, linguistics, genetic, archaeological and anthropological evidence place Noah in an African context, likely the region of Lake Chad in the late Holocene Wet Period. <br /><br />Ninurta was the name of the divine patron of law, scribes, farming, and hunting in Urartu. The name is Nin-Ur-Ta. Ur refers to shrine cities or fortified "high places" in Mesopotamia. The cult of Ninurta can be traced back to the oldest period of Sumerian history. You are correct that "Urartu" refers to the heights, probably rock shelters that became settlements. Many cities are designated Ur. Variants of the word Ur include Ar. Ar is likely derived from Kar and Har, both referring to a mountain.Alice C.

The word "Ararat" in the bible comes from the word "Urartu". The meaning of this word is "The heights", refering in Genesis book to a mountainous place. In addition to this meaning, in the bible this word "Ararat or Urartu", refers to a kingdom that in ancient times was located around lake Van in Armenia. It is well known by the scholars that "Urartu" was part of the territory of eastern Turkey, Armenia, around the lake Van, and Iran, to the lake Urmia and not too far from Ardebil and Mount Sabalan. It is very interesting the position of Noah beeing in Africa, but it does not correspond to what the bible says about Noah. The mountain where the ark landed is not named in the bible, but some clues are given, as the time it took for the tops of the mountains were seen, having alredy landed the Ark on that not named mountain or place. This means that this place was higher than the others around, so only it has to be identified this higher place. The highest mountains in "Ararat region" are some, including Mount Ararat, Mount Suphan, Mount Cilo, Mount Aragats and others. I hope this may add some light to this interesting subject.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-688820610845171516.post-42356050166367396362015-04-25T09:40:52.748-07:002015-04-25T09:40:52.748-07:00Those are the coordinates for paddan-Aram, the &qu...Those are the coordinates for paddan-Aram, the "plain" of Aram, mentioned in Genesis 25:20 and 26:6. <br /><br />Noah lived in the region of Lake Chad much earlier than this Aramaic phrase was coined.

I clearly see the need to breakdown the word 'Ararat' since it is in the book of Genesis. But the Bible doesn't connect Noah's Ark to Armenia. Isn't Armenia just a deduction based on Mount Ararat assumed to be in Turkey? Armenia is only mentioned twice in the Bible - with no apparent reference to Noah (that I know of). 2 Kings 19:37<br />King James Version<br /> And it came to pass, as he was worshipping in the house of Nisroch his god, that Adrammelech and Sharezer his sons smote him with the sword: and they escaped into the land of Armenia. And Esarhaddon his son reigned in his stead.<br />2 Kings 19:36-37 (repeated in Isaiah 37:38). So why the breakdown of the word 'Armenia'? What am I missing??
