I can only think of one religion besides from christianity that mentions a great flood, and that is the Mayan creation myth. They believed they were the third race created by their gods with the first being made of mud and then being destroyed by a flood, the next being made of wood and an attempt was made to destroy them with another flood, but they lived and became monkeys. Not much similarity to the story of the ark. What other cultures have a story of a flood? [[User:Rellik|Rellik]] 23:40, 19 March 2008 (EDT)

:The Babylonians have the story of Upnapishtim from the Epic of Gilgamesh; the Greeks have Deucalion.  There are possibly many more cultures that do.  [[User:Karajou|Karajou]] 23:43, 19 March 2008 (EDT)
