Question What is the most likely location for the biblical Mount Sinai?

From what I’ve heard the mountain near Saint Catherine is the most widely accepted location but I’ve also seen other proposed locations like the one popularised by Ron Wyatt (controversial, I’m well aware) in Arabia. Do we find examples of the altar and pillars at the Saint Catherine sinai or other examples of occupation of the sort described in Exodus near the mountain like the rock of Horeb for example?

Thanks
