Re: Ark of the Covenant
There is a far far simplier explaintion, that fits the pattern of the claims by Ron Wyatt.
That explaination is that there is no real evidence that can be analysied, just claims to tickle the fancy of the believer.
One fantastic claim might be able to be bought, if there is objective evidence that is provided to reserchers for analsysis.
But, fantasic claim after fantastic claim, with all the evidence claimed not provided to outside authorities shows either fantasy on the part of the claiments, or fraud.

Re: Ark of the Covenant
True, true . but what about Wyatt’s supporters that like to post how much evidence they have for his claims. Or even Wyatt’s colleague’s such as Moller who Buzsaw seem’s to think is more on the up and up.
Both Nighttrain and Buzsaw have pointed to the exodus video as legit but still dodge the questions posted in the original OP for which most of us have asked for some type of reasoning for such poor evidence.
Evidence that is claimed, but never produced, year after year after year is no evidence at all.
Unless the evidence can be produced, and evaluated with objective analsysis, it is not real evidence at all.
One item that the 'psuedo-archelogists' will use is they go to a dig, find some old item, and declare it to be something of signifigence in the Bible. It might be nothign but an old pot of oil, or a mound of stones, but suddenly it becomes a temple artifact, or the evidence of the exodus. They then jealously guard their 'find', and refuse to let anybody subject it to objective analsysis.
After all, they don't want to be disallusioned, and find their old pottery shard is 1000 years newer from what they claim it is proof of.
Edited by ramoss, : No reason given.

Re: more evidence
Well, those are impressive claims.
Why has none of the evidence been put under peer reviewed scruntiny? Why has none of the claims ever made it into peer reviewed archelogical journals?
The problem with the credibilty is that none of these fantastic claims ever had any of the evidence for them examined. Also, even IF some of the evidence actually exists as claimed, it is not even evidence of what is being claimed it is evidence for.
