Relic reveals Noah's ark was circular

Gen 6:15 This is how you are to make it: the length of the ark 300 cubits, its breadth 50 cubits, and its height 30 cubits.

Not according to God's instructions. Maev should check all the facts...

true.

"Draw out the boat that you will built with a circular design; Let its length and breadth be the same."

This doesn't seem right to me. Aren't there good sea-going reasons why someone would not want to do this?

"The tablet goes on to command the use of plaited palm fibre, waterproofed with bitumen"

No, bitumen is an oil product. Pitch (which it would presumably have said) is made from trees.

"Noah's flood. The Mesopotamian flood myth"

And there we find the bias/lie. There is much scientific evidence for the flood.

This guy is a fraud.

Not according to God's instructions.

Exactly. The headline of this story is deceptive. One version of the Flood story says that the boat was circular, but the name given in that version is not even Noah.
