Is he saying the ark is mythological???

It depends on the definition of the word myth? There are probably two.
1) A traditional story, collective or early history of a people.
2) An established, but false belief or idea.
I think he will probably be one of those who consider ‘Noah’s Ark’ to be none historical, or part. But his opinions mean very little to me, the tablet means more. The evidence itself is more important than the interpretation of the evidence.
