The Great Flood may not be a myth. The flood appears in ancient Sumerian, in the Hindu Matsya Purana, in the Mesopotamian Epic of Gilgamesh, in the Bible & with ancient Greeks w/ Zeus' flooding of the world in Ovid's Metamorphoses. Scientists have found evidence in the Black Sea.

@BioDivLibrary @museumsvictoria @CrossrefOrg @DOI_Foundation I do think old books are beautiful in their own right, but it's much easier to make audiences gasp with wonder when your slides are filled with images from/by Seba, Audubon, Merian, Gould, Scott, Shaw, Curtis, Bartholomew, Becker, etc. Sigh.

Maria Sibylla Merian and her daughter Dorothea Graff were pioneering painters and printmakers famous for their scientific illustrations. In 1699 they travelled to Surinam in South America where they made extensive notes and sketches of the colourful wildlife
@LiveScience Remember what is 'Win of Pyr', and how the Sumerian fairytale 'Ali Baba and the 40 thieves' finishes; the Lands of Ur, the morning after death, the tears of the Sun, the sacred tongues of will and sacred mummy darkness; protuberatic rage gone out of the dead night's stomach.
