The story of Noah:
The story comes to us out of Mesopotamia as 'The Epic of Gilgamesh'. There are also five Sumerian poems related to the flood entitled 'The deluge' that were discovered at Nippur. This poem seems to be unrelated to Gilgamesh, it is concerned mainly with the survival of the flood by King Zi-u-sudra (Uta-Napishtim/Utna-Pishtim/Noah). In the story one of the 'gods', the Anunnaki, called Enlil decides to destroy human kind because they had multiplied in numbers as to be out of control because of the lack of a regulated society to control the people and their out of control sexual mating habits.
A vote was taken amoung the Anunnaki, which are said to consist of 600 in the 'Netherworld' and 300 Anunnaki 'of the Heavens'. The majority of voted with Enlil to destroy mankind.
All of the 'gods', however, did not vote with Enlil. Enki the wise and Nin-khursag chose to defy the councils decree and save King Ziusudra by giving his advanced warning and instructions to build a boat. King Ziusudra builds the boat and stocks it with ox, sheep, fowl, and other beasts for food provisions. I believe the dimensions of the boat have were stated incorrectly. Since the area of the Black Sea was then a much smaller freshwater lake it's probable that King Ziusudra was also a prominent fisherman and the first "Fisher King". He probably escaped the flood in his largest fishing boat, which may have been 40 cubits in length.
As I stated in post 117A., there were at least two Great Floods in the lives of these people. The first and greatest flood was in the Black Sea around 5,550 BC. The second great flood was in Mesopotamia itself around 4,000 BC. The first Great Flood drove these people south into what would later be known as Mesopotamia. The clay cuneiform tablets of the Mesopotamians tell us from the 'Sumerian King List' that different 'gods' ruled over different areas of Mesopotamia before the Great Flood. If the true Great Flood was actually in the Black Sea, then it appears the Mesopotamians themselves had forgotten their ancestral homeland in the 1,500 years that had pasted since that terrible time and were adapting the story to fit their present surroundings. It seems the had forgotten all but the flood itself, that they remembered. In the Mesopotamian original version of the story creation, the flood happens before the creation of Adam and Eve.

Eden:
It's now believed an area about 300 miles southeast of the Black Sea in northern Iran to the west of Tabriz in an area of a once fertile plain just east of the Daryacheh-ye-Orumiyeh Lake may have been the area of the true Garden of Eden. I believe this to be correct, and if so then after the Great Flood at a few people, or one or two people, made it to this fertile plain. This area also has the advantage of being surrounded by high mountains on almost all sides. It would be an excllent place in which to set out perimeter alarms for the purpose of keeping someone inside for some reason, such as genetic engineering experimentation. Adam may have been the last in a long series of genetic engineering experiments and improvments on human beings, homo sapien sapien.
Timeline:
It is said all humankind share the same basic genetic code that can be traced back to around 200,000 BC.
There were eight Nephilim Kings in the pre-flood age that were said to have reigned for a total of sixty-seven 'sha'. A 'sha', according to Sir Charles Leonard Woolley, is an earth time of 360 years. Berossus, a Babylonian priest from 275 BC, says it's a time of 3,600 years in his manuscript known as 'Babylonica'. The 360 year estimate would place the beginning of the rule of the Nephilim 'gods' around 29,600 BC. Roughly the same time modern man enters Europe and the Neanderthal start to disappear. The 3,600 year estimate would place the beginning reign of the Nephilim 'gods' at least 241,000 years by the time of Adam, or around 246,200 years ago.
But where was the great flood of around 250,000 years ago?
It's possible that there had been an even greater flood. When the sea level dropped due to the ice age, it dropped as much as 300 feet. This may have left the Mediterranean Sea dry or almost dry. It's possible that a very great flood could have happened in this once fertile valley around 250,000 years ago as the ice sheet receded between galcial periods. Adam just may have been the last in a long line of genetic engineering experiments on homo sapien sapien.
If we think these 'gods' were actually E.T.s we must think of the possible fact that they might have been able to arrest the aging process in themselves. It's said if we humans could do the same it might be possible for each of us to live as long as 100,000 years. I think that estimate is overreaching it a bit. But I can see man living 3,600 years.
Unfortunately now that an age of truth and understanding is drawing near an age of political deception is upon us. I believe we have entered a new Dark Age in which truth is substituted for politically correct propaganda.
