'''Ronald Eldon Wyatt''' yang dikenal sebagai '''Ron Wyatt''' ({{lahirmati|[[Tennessee]],lahir di [[Amerika Serikat]] |tahun |1933; mati di |1933|[[Tennessee]], [[Amerika Serikat]]| tanggal [[4|8| Agustus]] [[1999}}]]) adalah seorang petualang dan bekas [[perawat]] [[anestesi]] asal [[Amerika Serikat]] yang terkenal karena sejumlah penemuan tempat yang berkaitan dengan [[Alkitab]], termasuk situs [[Durupınar]], [[Turki]] sebagai tempat [[Bahtera Nuh]]. Banyak klaimnya diperdebatkan dan ditolak oleh para pakar sejarah, ilmuwan dan Alkitab, tetapi hasil penelitiannya terus mendapatkan dukungan dari berbagai pihak, termasuk golongan [[Kristen]] [[Fundamentalisme|fundamentalis]] dan [[Evangelikalisme|evangelikal]].

==Reception==
While Wyatt won a devoted following from some [[fundamentalist]] Christians, he was not considered credible by professional archaeologists and biblical scholars. The [[Garden Tomb]] Association of Jerusalem state in a letter they issue to visitors on request:
== Penerimaan ==
<blockquote>The Council of the Garden Tomb Association (London) totally refute the claim of Mr Wyatt to have discovered the original Ark of the Covenant or any other biblical artifacts within the boundaries of the area known as the Garden Tomb Jerusalem. Though Mr Wyatt was allowed to dig within this privately owned garden on a number of occasions (the last occasion being the summer of 1991) staff members of the Association observed his progress and entered his excavated shaft. As far as we are aware nothing was ever discovered to support his claims nor have we seen any evidence of biblical artifacts or temple treasures.</blockquote>
Wyatt mendapatkan banyak pengikut dari sejumlah kelompok [[Kristen]] [[Fundamentalisme|fundamentalis]]. Di sisi lain, ia tidak dianggap dapat dipercaya oleh para pakar Alkitab maupun arkeolog profesional.<ref>{{cite web|last=Wieland |first=Carl |url=http://web.archive.org/web/20030211052724/http://www.answersingenesis.org/docs2002/1011hovind.asp |title=AiG discussion of Wyatt and other claims with Kent Hovind, October/December 2002 |publisher=Web.archive.org |date=2003-02-11 |accessdate=2013-07-10}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.andrews.edu/archaeology/archive/merling/newpage21.htm |title="Has Noah's Ark Been Found?" by David Merling |publisher=Andrews.edu |date= |accessdate=2013-07-10}}</ref>

In order to excavate one must have at least a BA in archaeology which he does not possess despite his claims to the contrary. ... [His claims] fall into the category of trash which one finds in tabloids such as the [[National Enquirer]], [[Sun (supermarket tabloid)|Sun]] etc."<ref>[http://www.tentmaker.org/WAR/Zias.html Letter from Joe Zias] Joe Zias did not indicate where Ron Wyatt had ever claimed to have a BA in archaeology.</ref>
Wyatt's fellow evangelicals have also been critical: [[Answers in Genesis]] called Wyatt's claims "fraudulent,"<ref>{{cite web|last=Wieland |first=Carl |url=http://web.archive.org/web/20030211052724/http://www.answersingenesis.org/docs2002/1011hovind.asp |title=AiG discussion of Wyatt and other claims with Kent Hovind, October/December 2002 |publisher=Web.archive.org |date=2003-02-11 |accessdate=2013-07-10}}</ref> and one [[Seventh-day Adventist Church|Seventh-day Adventist]] professor of archaeology sums up Wyatt's Noah's Ark and anchor stones claims in these words: "While the Durupinar site is about the right length for Noah's ark, [it is] ... too wide to be Noah's ark. Wyatt has claimed that the "boat-shapedness" of this formation can only be explained by its being Noah's ark, but both Shea and Morris have offered other plausible explanations. Likewise, Wyatt has argued that the standing stones he has found are anchors, while Terian is aware of similar stones outside the Durupinar site area that were pagan cultic stones later converted by Christians for Christian purposes."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.andrews.edu/archaeology/archive/merling/newpage21.htm |title="Has Noah's Ark Been Found?" by David Merling |publisher=Andrews.edu |date= |accessdate=2013-07-10}}</ref>

Setelah kematiannya, terjadi perpecahan antara organisasi resmi yang didirikannya "Wyatt Archaeological Research" (WAR) dengan sejumlah organisasi maupun individual yang tadinya bekerjasama dengannya. WAR saat ini mengklaim sebagai pemilik tunggal semua foto, penerbitan dan hak milik peninggalan Wyatt. Sementara orang-orang lain yang pernah bekerja sama dengan Ron Wyatt mendirikan orgnisasi dan situs web lain yang mempromosikan penemuan Wyatt di luar batas yang ditentukan oleh WAR.
▲Dismissed by the mainstream as a [[pseudoarchaeology|pseudoarchaeologist]], Wyatt's official organization ''Wyatt Archaeological Research'' (WAR), claims that the IAA have always been aware of the excavations and issued "verbal permits" for most of them and official permits to all WAR excavations since 2002.{{Citation needed|date=August 2008}} Nevertheless, the only evidence of WAR involvement in a legitimate excavation sanctioned by the IAA relates to WAR part-funding of a 2005 dig.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.hadashot-esi.org.il/report_detail_eng.asp?id=327&mag_id=111 |title=Yehiel Zelinger, art.

▲Wyatt died on August 4, 1999, aged 66, in Baptist Central Hospital in [[Memphis, Tennessee]], after having suffered from a type of cancer. His interment was in [[Columbia, Tennessee|Columbia]]'s Polk Memorial Park Cemetery.
Following Wyatt's death, a split developed between the official Wyatt Archaeological Research (WAR) organization which he founded, and the independent ministries and interested individuals which had previously cooperated with WAR. WAR currently claims to be the sole owner of all Wyatt's photographs, newsletters, and other intellectual property. Other individuals who had known and worked with Wyatt established independent ministries and websites with the purpose of promoting Wyatt's discoveries outside the framework set by WAR.
