Above are some pictures of what they found at the location of Moses' Red Sea crossing. The column that you see first was found on the Egypt side of the Gulf of Aqaba, and they found another at the other side in Saudi Arabia on the shore. The shore the first column was found on is the only shore on the entire coast that could've held the number of Hebrews that exited Egypt.

The next pictures are of some chariot wheels found in the middle of the sea. The bible says a few things in regard to this. It says that God raised a roadway through the water and that as the Egyptians were catching up with the Hebrews, he took off their chariot wheels. Then, after the Hebrews had fully crossed, he dropped the walls of water on the Egyptian army.

If you'll go to the link below, and check out the articles, there are many more pictures there and they have satellite and sonar imagry of the level of the gulf floor. They used to have a picture of a guy standing on the water about 2 miles out, and in the background a tanker had hit this raised sandbar that the guy was walking on and it couldn't get through. This roadway goes out a couple miles at nearly water level, then dips down about 20 feet or better for a mile or so, then comes back up on the other side. I think it's a total of 5 miles across. Very interesting.

I heard another story about how the military found the path that Moses took out of Egypt all the way to Mt. Sinai via satellite.

Apparently, during the Gulf War, Saddam buried tanks up to their turrets in the sand a mile or so from the Gulf of Aqaba. This was to prevent troop passage from that direction. The tanks blended with the desert and were hard to pickout without getting blow up. The military simply used a satellite to get a thermal image of the area just after sundown, because the desert floor would cool off more quickly than the tanks would. They lit up red and were bombed by nearby ships, if I remember correctly.

Something else lit up red, as well, though. A path all the way from Egypt to the middle of Saudi Arabia. As it turns out, this path went right out of Egypt through the only path possible to follow and across the Gulf of Aqaba, then into Saudia Arabia (at the time it was called Midian, which is where Moses went for 40 years in the desert). This is what they found at the end of that "red line" on the satellite photos.

That's supposedly Mt. Sinai. It's the only peak in that area out of all the peaks that is charred black. Archaeologists think it was volcanic, but there's no evidence of such activity there. The charred rock on this mountain is obsidian, like a volcano can produce. However, when you break it open it is granite in the middle. In other words, something extremely hot melted the outside of those rocks. In the bible when Moses received the ten commandments, God said he came down in the form of fire, and that people could not approach the mountain too closely or they'd be killed simply from the present of God's perfection. So they put markers every 400 or so around the mountain, according to the bible. That's exactly what they found around that mountain peak. Markers at the exact distance. Pretty interesting... The story is posted at the link below:

They also found the rock Moses split in half with his staff and water came from it. They found the oasis they stopped at right after the red sea crossing, as well. They used to have pictures of this stuff, but they revamped the site and it's changed quite a bit now. Sorry...

I find it interesting that they know where they crossed at. I'm actually not to far from Nuweiba right now. And yeah, its a cool site to see. You can see Saudi Arabia and the mountain ranges and all from the beach. This may sound crazy, but there is a Hilton Hotel there too. I'll go check and see if those pillars/columns whatever are there.

Sweet! Yeah, by all means, let me know. As the story goes, the way Ron Wyatt found their exact path through the current Sinai Peninsula (the peninsula in between the split in the Red Sea), he read the account of the Exodus and followed it by way of jeep. They found that the only way to cross the peninsula was through one path which would allow travel through those mountains. And it just happen to come out on that beach. So, they had no choice but to go in that direction. As for the beaches, I would assume they'd leave those columns there. They dug them up out of the water, because they were placed just off the beach, in the water. The sat them on the beach and they should still be there today, most likely. Let me know what you find!

Yeah, I'll have to check it out the next time I go out on patrol there. We have an outpost right there on the water. Wonder how far that column is. Is there any maps saying where he found this stuff? And as far as him saying this was the only path they could have taken is no joke. Where I'm at is the only area that there is sand and room for that magnitude of people to be traveling through. The rest of the terrain is excedingly rocky, not even the Bedoins travel on the rocks. I'll try and get some pics up on here at a later date. And if I get to see that column, I'll be sure to get pics of it too. Anyways, catch ya'll later,

I'd love to see pictures. Oh, and one picture I'd really like to see is of someone standing out in the water, because I saw a picture a while back where a man was standing about 2 miles out on the water, and a tanker was stuck on the sandbar he was standing on that far out. The tanker was stuck probably 2 miles away, though. The sand bar starts to drop in the middle, about 2 miles out, then comes back up about 3 miles out...I think.

Yes, there is a map on the website. Go here:

www.anchorstone.com
Then click on Red Sea Crossing at the top.
Then, click on "Read more..." under "Newsletter 02: January 1993" There is a cheesy map there, and some pictures of the beach along with the pictures of the columns, etc. Each page bottom has a "next" link which will take you to the next newsletter which tells more of the story and has more pics. Check it out.

This site seems to have lots more pictures of the area and the things they found in the Red Sea. Pretty good site.

http://www.arkdiscovery.com/mt_sinai_found_part_2.htm

Same site, but this shows the rock that Moses split in half with his staff and water flowed out of it. It has water erosion at the bottom where it's split into.

The link above has the below text on it and it says they found the path originally by infared satellite photos. Unfortunately, they don't show the photos in this article. :(

"Larry Williams: With satellite infrared photography, there have been major archaeological discoveries found throughout the world. There is a trail that comes down the west branch of the Red Sea, uh, the left hand branch of it, comes down to the tip of the Sinai Peninsula, stops there, [The Wyatt Group disagrees with this satellite scenario] appears to come out the other side and wanders north to the highest mountain, Jebel el Lawz. And we did find what I think is important archaeological evidence that something took place at Jebel el Lawz."


I don't seem to be able to find the actual satellite photos now. I've seen then many years ago, but I can't find them now for some reason. Those columns aren't on the beach anymore, at least on the Saudi Arabia side. I just watched a 13 min documentary that said the Saudis had taken the column after they found out it was there and no one know exactly what they've done with it. They also fenced in the Mt. Sinai area so people can actually step onto the mountain, only view it from a distance.

That's most unfortunate.

Perhaps they were fakes, and it was found out they were such.

So a column stood on the beach for ~4000 years and ... they didn't know about it?

They also fenced in the Mt. Sinai area so people can actually step onto the mountain, only view it from a distance.

Perhaps they don't want the deluge of religious zealouts like yourself to come stampeding into their country.

I saw the photos and they weren't fake. They were military photos from a military satellite with infrared capabilities. You could see the tanks lit up on the desert floor, and you could see the line. Some military officials confirmed its accuracy, as well, because they're the ones that first showed the images to the public.

And yet they don't exist anymore. Most unfortunate.
