Following his (itself problematic) work, recently, the Chinese were showing wood constructions in the ice, claiming they were the ark.

My guess is that 1) they found the wood constructions were old houses. And 2) then developed the apologetic theory that the houses had surely, however, been made from parts of the old ark.
