Good idea

Hi EP

A kind of knock-on mega-flood. The Greek version of Noah's Flood, Deucalion's Flood, could be explained by a tsunami. They dated it to c. 1500 BC, roughly the same period as Thera's detonation. Now there's this vastly more violent tsunami, so I wonder just how old the story is.

- Still despite the dating could have led to stories of a "worldwide" flood. (n/t) - Robert Clark - 12/3/2006 3:29:13 PM
