This is a critique of the application of ideational cognitive archaeology to determining the location of Noah's Ark. The weakness of the argument is that the author posits, without proof, that the round circle in the Egyptian akhet is Noah's Ark, and the two peaks on each side are the mountains where Noah's Ark landed. He then looks at what he claims is this akhet motif in various pagan cultures in the Near East to show that Noah's Ark most likely landed at Tendurek (site of the Durupinar formation), Turkey. This line of reasoning has led to a flawed conclusion, as Noah's Ark cannot have landed on a volcano.
