Noah's Ark

[Filuwaúrdjan]

Impossible to tell if the story is true or not (all a matter of faith etc. etc. etc) but I would be suprised if the core of the story isn't true. People tend to neglect and look down on oral history, which is pretty sad really.

Note that for people living at the time it (or something similer to it) happend, the "world" would have been something very, very different to how we see it now. IIRC there's a theory it might have had something to do with the drowing of what is now the Black Sea following the end of the last Ice Age.

Most of the earliest-settled parts of Asia are now on the Indian Ocean floor actually.

Ahh... interesting. Yay; multiple possibilities

You all need to think out of the box* (so to speak) a little more over this... same goes for a lot lot of the OT.

*By this I don't mean picking and choosing what to believe depending on other viewpoints
