This not only explains the large-scale extinction, it’s probably the source of the Great Flood myths around the world. If as they believe the comet made a number of impacts on the arctic ice cap, sea level would have risen almost 400 feet almost overnight.

The flood stories more closely correlate with events of 7000 years ago when the rising sea levels flooded the north sea, the baltic sea and the black sea.

It would also almost depopulate North America, explaining why so many languages and cultures seem to have originated in South America though it was settled later than the North.

That’s also a time frame around the time the first settled agriculturists and villages are popping up, so you have a stronger oral tradition and people who notice sea levels rose.

Yes, the rapid melting of the northern ice sheet and the subsequent 400 foot rise in sea level, are essential parts of the Younger Dryas impact theory.

Robert Ballard found evidence of the Great Flood almost 20 years ago:
