In another video I saw in the larger mound, there was an underground tunnel leading to a buried wooden pine and juniper construction. You know you folks are looking for a biblical ark in Turkey recently. Did nobody think that this construction could be it? Did anyone do an x-ray to see the shape and size of it? I wonder if you already found it here in Gordion but mislabelled it....
