the Hindu epic of Ma-Nuh, also known as Noah.<> They had a wild ride. The flooding was apparently sudden and a tidal wave swept pretty far inland. The Black Sea flooding might have been at the same time, but the flooding was probably due to one of the glacial lake collapses. Sea level would have risen 200-400 feet in a couple days, worldwide. The locals in Pakistan and Afghanistan know they are standing on ancient land, but they may not realize how ancient.

I think that is to much rise just for the collapse of the dams holding Lake Agassiz. It was only a 300-500 ft rise for all the ice melting. There were probably a lot of ice bergs crashing into the sea that caused some tsunamis in that period too. (...and , earthquakes, undersea landslides and volcanos)

You have to go all the way back to 14,000 BCE to get really good glacial lake flooding. My favorite is the glacial lake that existed around the perimeter of Antarctica.

When that one cut loose it should have formed a massive bole (or standing wave) that would ride as high as any mountains at the shoreline, and sweep up from the South throughout most of the Northern hemisphere.

This could explain the why-fors of the Cheetah which lives only in the Southern hemisphere.
