British museum specialist Irving Finkel has just proposed a new hypothesis, whereby the giant boat surpassed the deluge as the Bible notes that it could never exist and come to Mount Ararat.

'I believe 107% that the boat has never existed , ' the Guardian quoted Finkel, who deciphered the text on the antique table.

Finkel is one of the few people in the world to read ancient texts carved on clay tables, dating back to Babylonia and found in Mesopotamia, today Iraq.

The table describes how to build a round boat, ie a basket boat, rather than a pointy wooden boat as described in the Bible.

The prestigious British expert said that the ancient table was not a proof that Noah had ever been built, but it might have been a story recorded by a previous man from a man who knew how to build a boat at that time. .
