Since that 1977 trip to Turkey, Ron has made well over 100 trips to the Middle East, working in Turkey, Israel, Egypt and Saudi Arabia. His own study had led him to conclude that many of the commonly accepted locations of Biblical sites were incorrect. Curiosity and the belief that evidences of certain Biblical events were most likely still in existence led to his ventures into вЂњthe fieldвЂќ. His interest in archaeology was the direct result of his profound belief in the total accuracy of the Biblical account. His ventures into actual field work in the Middle East began in 1977, when his 3 children (whom he raised alone) were into their teens. He read about it in a 1960 вЂњLife MagazineвЂќ article which told of an American archaeological team that investigated the site in 1960 and pronounced it вЂњof no archaeological interest.вЂќ This article led to his profound belief that the site вЂњmost likelyвЂќ contained the remains of NoahвЂ™s Ark, a belief which was confirmed 17 years later when he first saw it in person.ДЄn anesthetist by vocation, Ron became interested in archaeology, history and all the sciences at the age of 15 and, through the years, read everything he could get his hands on concerning these subjects. Nashvillian Ron Wyatt, an amateur archaeologist, was guest of honour at the ceremony, credited as the вЂњdiscovererвЂќ because it was his persistence throughout the years which finally resulted in the evidence which convinced the Turkish authorities of the authenticity of the site. On June 20, 1987, the Turkish government officially recognized the discovery of the remains of NoahвЂ™s Ark in eastern Turkey with the dedication of NoahвЂ™s Ark National Park.
