The Sumarian Culture (Our first known civilization), WELL before biblical times 6000B.C. era had stories of great floods and the idea of an Ark being built. Stated that man was created in the image of "gods" (with a little "g", there is a difference). Stated that woman was created from man and many, man, other similarties all pre bible. This is a culture that very few talk about. Many things we use today were based on their knowledge. "The Sumerians made contribution in various fields like commerce, written and oral communication science and literature among other fields. They developed a system of written communication that built the basis of all written communication systems to come. They used to write on clay tablets and it was the first ever form of writing. They also were able to develop a number system that was based on a basic unit of 60. They were the ones who divided an hour into sixty minutes and said that a circle had three sixty degrees in it. They invented the wheel and the wheeled transportation vehicles as well that facilitated them in trade. They also contributed to the field of astrology as they tracked stars to make calendars."
These people stated they received their knowledge from the gods (yes, plural). They also stated that us, as in humans were genetically modified from whatever the fuck was here at the time...homo erectus. We are slave species that was used to mine gold.
So I'm not saying whose right and whose wrong. But the many stories in the bible, didn't originate from the bible...
They both are right cause they are both the same event...
Go to any major university and any historian will date the Sumerians to 3000-3500 BC, this is the accepted date, the problem with you is you have been reading to much of Zackariah`s BS and the poorly translated Annunaki BS
I have read every single Summerian artifact and manuscript and or tablets and a lot of it is symbolic in nature like the list of the God-kingship who came down from heaven and reigned each one from 20 000 years to 60 000 years, really convincing. A king reigned for 28 900 years and you are taking this literally
The cities of walled Uruk and Babel erected by Gilgamesh is the Biblical Nimrod. In the Bible it states that Nimrod built the same cities that Gilgamesh built, according to both texts they where both mighty hunters, both where kings in Mesopotamia, both where giants, both where difiant to God, both erected tall structures that could withhold a flood and both where the first military commander to rise up an army of 5000 men, also known as Sargon. So to say they where not the same characters is fucken outright stupid.
The flood story is the same story as the Biblical flood story and took place at the same time obviously, the only difference is the Summerian flood story was written before the Biblical account, so what that means nothing, the Biblical account was derived from a past down manuscript from the same time, hence it is the same event that took place. Utanapishtim is the Biblical Noah and Gilgamesh is Nimrod
anything else you want to know, I spent 5 years studying the Cuneiform tablets.
