Where did the ark come to rest? The landing site has been a subject of dispute for centuries. Ancient reports of ark sightings abounded from 400 BC to the 13th century AD. Modern reports, some suspicious, have occurred up until today. Over the centuries, eight different landing places have been named, however, most of these legendary resting sites center around three locations: Mount Ararat (Agri Dagh) in Turkey, northeast of Lake Van; Mount Cudi (Judi Dagh or Jebel Judi) southwest of Lake Van near Cizre, Turkey; and the Adiabene region, below Mosul and south of the Little Zab River in either Iraq or Iran
