Moses brother Aaron helped him lead2-3 million of their people Israel out of Egypt.
Of the mountains that encircle the great bowl of Petra, none is morecommanding than Jabal Haroun, Aaron's Mountain, or Mt. Hor of the
Bible. At 1,350 metres above sea-level it is the highest peak in the area;and it is a place of great sanctity to the local people for here, they believe,
Moses' brother Aaron died and was buried.
Numbers 20:28 AndMoses stripped Aaronof his garments, andput them on Eleazarhis son; and Aaron
died there in the top ofthe mount [Hor]: andMoses and Eleazarcame down from themount.

God divided the sea by an Eastern storm exposing thisunderwater land bridge & Moses went over it as if it were
dry land! Thats how 2-3 million of them could cross!
Exodus 14:21-22 Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and theLORD caused the sea to go [back] by a strong east wind all that night, andmade the sea dry [land], and the waters were divided. And the children ofIsrael went into the midst of the sea upon the dry [ground]: and the waters[were] a wall unto them on their right hand, and on their left.

According to the Bible account Pharaohschariots tried to pursue them
original picture ofPharaohs chariots
EX. 14:23 The Egyptians pursued, and went in after them to the midst of the sea, even allPharaoh's horses, his chariots, and his horsemen. 24 it came to pass, that in themorning watch the LORD 25 took off their chariot wheels, that they drave them heavily:so that the Egyptians said, Let us flee from the face of Israel; for the LORD fighteth for
them against the Egyptians. 26 And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch out thine handover the sea, that the waters may come again upon the Egyptians, upon their chariots,and upon their horsemen. 27 And Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea, and thesea returned to his strength when the morning appeared; and the Egyptians fled againstit; and the LORD overthrew the Egyptians in the midst of the sea. 28 And the watersreturned, and covered the chariots, and the horsemen, and all the host of Pharaoh that
came into the sea after them; there remained not so much as one of them.

Since 1987, Ron Wyatt found three four-spoke gilded chariot wheels.
Coral does not grow on gold, hence the shape has remainedvery distinct, although the wood inside the gold veneer has
disintegrated making them too fragile to move.
The hope for future expeditions is to explore thedeeper waters with remote cameras or mini-subs.

Solomon's Memorial Pillars.
When Ron Wyatt first visited Nuweiba in 1978, he found aPhoenician style column lying in the water. Unfortunately the
inscriptions had been eroded away, hence the column'simportance was not understood until 1984 when a second granite
column was found on the Saudi coastline opposite -- identical to

Sad to say mainstream anti-God media do notportray these true facts in the light of faith
But prefer to sceptically doubt such archaeological proofs tothe veracity & historicity of the Biblical account, one of the
most accurate history books in the world
"Commit your way to theLORD; trust in him, and he
will act". (Psalm:37:5)
