So you believe wooden chariot wheels would survive at the bottom of the sea for how many years?
May I suggest you look at what survives from maritime wrecks of that period and also consider the effect of teredo navalis.
I would also challenge you to produce an underwater terrain map of the Red Sea that doesn't come from a fundamentalist site.
I would also ask that you look up the meaning of the Hebrew word suph.
Additionally why would a site on the Gulf of Aqaba be considered part of the reed sea or even red sea?
As for Wyatt....unfortunately his stuff is so seriously flawed it's hard to believe..........
Here is a close up of the 'chariot wheel' which is looks more like a metal part of a maritime engine than a chariot..

The account of the Red Sea crossing never happened and it is not said in the Hebrew bible that the Hebrews crossed the Red Sea. It is written in The Torah Anthology by Me'am Lo'ez - 1730 - (Available to buy on internet) that this Exodus incident was not a crossing of the sea but was a mid sea circling of the Hebrews. The Hebrews lined up at the beach in columns according to their tribes. The sea parted and the floor of the sea became dry overnight. There were twelve canopies (tunnels) separated by a wall of water between each canopy. Each tribe went into its assigned canopy midway into the sea and circled back to the shore from where they started. The Egyptians followed the tunnels and were drowned in the midst of the sea. As they approached the circle of returning, the sea closed on both the entrance and exiting thus trapping them in a complete semi circle of water. The result was that the Hebrews actually returned down shore and on the same side they had started. That is the Hebrew account as understood in their Anthology.

I am swaying more towards a tsunami as per the cause.You can see the scar that cuts through the landscape in this area,indicating past tectonic disturbances.And the dead sea may even be what is left over from the tsunami and over time has become isolated inland?
So maybe the sea parted essentially in this case..as in receded out to sea prior to a tsunami? they then crossed the best path i.e. this landbridge and the following Pharaoh was caught in the incoming wave?

Yeah there is a lot that supports Moses as far as i'm aware.As for the pyramids, i am of the thought that the Anunnaki built them and from after the creation of the 'great pyramids' we see examples of imitated attempts made by humans,which are no where near as good.

I am aware that this wood was quite well preserved after a similar time frame in saltwater.

You're right about the map? hard to obtain a so called 'mainstream supported image' why is that? for such a seemingly innocent stretch of water?..again as to be expected with the grand cover up? i suspect a simple topography image could put a fly in the ointment?

Do we even have any evidence that Moses and the Jews were enslaved in Egypt and were forced to build the pyramids? I thought they were built by Egyptian laborers during the non-farming seasons?
