  People are still talking about some flood that probably happened at some point in pre-history.

    I strongly believe that it happened. It doesn’t need to be a “flood of biblical dimensions” but just one terrible enough to convince a few early tribes that it was the end of the world as we know it.

    That’s mankind lore

      I feel like the myth existing in cultures around the world from Mesopotamia to the Americas gives its more credence. It makes sense that a world-changing event would work its way into various disparate cultures.

        Or it’s because people all around the world always lived next to water and encountered fluds.
