In Genesis, Noah’s Ark is linked with the mountains of Ararat.
Genesis 8:4 says the Ark rested on the mountains of Ararat after the Flood waters began to recede. The biblical phrase does not name a single mountain range in the modern geographical sense, but it connects the site with the land or region known as Ararat. The name is commonly associated with Urartu, an ancient kingdom centered around the Armenian Highlands.
The modern Mount Ararat became the focus of many later traditions and expeditions. That popular identification is more specific than Genesis itself, which uses plural “mountains.” No discovery has achieved broad scholarly acceptance as the remains of the biblical Ark.
This distinction matters because a question about the biblical location has a different answer from a question about a modern mountain peak or an archaeological claim.
