An Introduction
"And  Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the LORD caused the sea  to go back by a strong east wind all that night, and made the sea dry  land, and the waters were divided." (Exodus 14:21)

The  Hebrew Exodus from Egypt is in scope the most miraculous event ever to  be recorded by man.  It's historicity though has been challenged and  reduced to mere mythology by many religious theologians and biblical  archaeologists until recently. In 1978 Ron Wyatt, a biblical  archaeologist without formal training, confounded the opponents of  biblical historical accuracy by discovering the true "Exodus Red Sea  Crossing" in the Gulf of Aqaba (Red Sea) at Nuweiba, Sinai Peninsula.

The  authenticity of Wyatt's claim has been validated with the discovery of  the remains of ancient Egyptian army chariots lying at the bottom of an  underwater land bridge connecting Sinai to Saudi Arabia. Many coral  encrusted chariot wheels, and a gilded four spoked chariot wheel were  found.  Fossilized human and horse bones were also recovered, but carbon  dating was not possible.

The Hebrew name given to the Red Sea crossing site was Pi-hahiroth (Hebrew:  פִּי הַחִירֹת). The Hebrew name "Pi-hahiroth" has been translated as  "mouth of the gorges," descriptive of its location, where the mouths of  two rivers (wadis) combine at the point of entry into the sea.  The  Nuweiba peninsula fits this description exactly.  The historical  significance of the Nuweiba site as the site of the Exodus crossing was  also known in ancient times.  This fact is attested to by the discovery  of "commemorative inscriptions erected by King Solomon" on both the Sinai and Saudi Arabian sides of the crossing.

While  some archaeologists consider Ron Wyatt's accomplishments to be nothing  but fraud and sensationalism, many have examined the evidence and  perceive the truth beyond the personalities and politics of the  profession.

In  2000 Dr. Lennart Moller, a research scientist from Sweden, headed an  expedition that retraced the footsteps of Wyatt.  Soon after the  expedition, it's Swedish backers produced an excellent documentary video and book  supporting Wyatt's claims as well as adding extensively to the  archaeological documentation.  Archaeological research is ongoing, with a  new documentary due in 2008.
