Some scientists argue that the prevalence of the Great Flood in Eastern Mediterranean myth derives from a historical event, in which the [[wikipedia:Black Sea|Black Sea]] was [[wikipedia:Black Sea deluge theory|suddenly flooded]] in about 5600 BCE. But then again, this would only account for the Middle Eastern and possibly the European myths, not the ones from the rest of the world. And, of course, some of various religious persuasions believe that the prevalence of the Great Flood myth derives from an actual worldwide great flood caused by their deity of choice (although a global flood [http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/faq-noahs-ark.html#flood isn't plausible by mainstream science]). |
