Not far off from the truth. It was about preserving the royal bloodline from Abraham, to David, to Jesus Christ. Also based on archeological data, the flood was a more localized disaster than we realize.

It was more about ripping off a bit of the Epic of Gilgamesh that the author liked.

  It’s a fictional story so the only source is the Bible.

    Just google Mesopotamian floods. That region flooded quite a bit in ancient times. It’s not far fetched to believe one of those was pretty bad and it inspired a lot of legends and stories.
