Video Description (from Youtube)

Archaeologist and cuneiform expert Irving Finkel joins Lex Fridman to discuss the shocking discovery of a Babylonian clay tablet that predates the Biblical Noah’s Ark story by over 1,000 years. Before

Genesis, before the Bible, before Noah—there was Atra-Hasis, Gilgamesh, and a ROUND ark blueprint written in ancient cuneiform.

Is Noah’s Ark based on an older Mesopotamian narrative?
Did the flood myth originate in Babylon?
What does this tablet mean for Biblical history?

This reaction breaks it all down — respectfully, historically, and with evidence.

What is Flood? A flood is a myth in which a great flood, usually sent by a deity or deities, destroys civilization, often in an act of divine retribution. Parallels are often drawn between the flood waters of these myths and the primeval cosmic ocean which appear in certain creation myths, as the flood waters are described as a measure for the cleansing of humanity, for example in preparation for rebirth. Most flood myths also contain a culture hero, who "represents the human craving for life". The oldest known narrative of a divinely initiated flood originates from the Sumerian culture in Mesopotamia, among others expressed in the Akkadian Atra-Hasis epic, which dates to the 18th century BCE. Comparable flood narratives appear in many other cultures, including the biblical Genesis flood narrative, manvantara-sandhya in Hinduism, Deucalion and Pyrrha in Greek mythology, also the Cheyenne, Blackfeet and Puebloan traditions.
