Cub Kuker Supernatural Podcast EP432

When it comes to flood myths, there is no shortage of them throughout mythology. However, one myth that notably predates all others is the Anunnaki story of the Epic of Atrahasis (also known as the story of Noah).

The Epic of Atrahasis is an ancient Mesopotamian text that recounts a flood myth with notable parallels to the biblical story of Noah’s Ark. It begins with the creation of humanity to relieve the lesser gods (Igigi) from their labor. Over time, humans multiply and become noisy, disturbing the god Enlil. In response, Enlil attempts to control the population by sending a plague and then a famine, but the god of wisdom, Enki, instructs the humans on how to survive both calamities.

Frustrated with humanity's noise, Enlil decides to send a catastrophic flood to wipe out all humans. Enki, sympathetic to humanity, warns Atrahasis, the hero of the story, instructing him to build a large boat to save himself, his family, and various animals. Atrahasis follows Enki’s instructions, and the floodwaters cover the earth, destroying all life outside the boat. After several days and nights, the flood subsides, and Atrahasis’s boat comes to rest. Atrahasis releases birds to find dry land, much like in the story of Noah.

The gods regret their decision to send the flood, realizing they have wiped out their worshippers. To prevent future overpopulation, Enki introduces new measures, including infant mortality, celibacy among certain priestesses, and a fixed lifespan for humans. The epic concludes with an understanding between Atrahasis and the gods, ensuring humanity will not face such a catastrophe again. The story highlights themes of divine anger and mercy, human wisdom and survival, and the necessity of balance between humanity and the divine realm.
