Previously on Fallen Worlds we looked at the possibility of a massive impact event which could be at the heart of over 1200 flood mythologies around the globe and we examined the real growing evidence set forth that this event seems to have been tied to the so-called Younger Dryas impact event.
The discovery of over 50 impact craters 600 miles across seems to suggest that the earth was bombarded by multiple objects. Around the world there are tales told of fiery serpents descending from the sky and multiple stories of strange visitors who gave warnings to a select few who were to preserve themselves and their families in caves and on boats and who would be charged to restart the human race after the world had been destroyed.
Why does there seem to be a continuity between these stories from different cultures who could never have had contact with one another? Were these people warned by others who knew this event was going to occur? And what can we learn from these legends? Emily Uldrich , Museum Educator from the Southern Ohio Museum and cultural center in Portsmouth Ohio joins us in this episode to examine these legends from around the world and closer to home as we try to unravel the story of The Survivors on this episode of Wild & Weird Radio.
