After some unpleasantness http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armenian_Genocide 
around about 1915 Mt. Ararat ended up about 20 km inside Turkey.  As both 
the dig site and Mt. Ararat are in the general vicinity of where Armenia, 
Turkey and Iran bump together, the answer, based on the information supplied 
in the article is in a general sense, yes.
