In a little bit older version of Ma-Nu and the flood, there are, of course, a number of humans on board the boat, but most of the passengers are simply "sages" or "demigods" of a sort who understand all the arts and skills.

Once Ma-nu and his wife begin making babies, the sages pass along their knowledge then disappear back to Heaven.

So, yes, 7 personages, not all of them human though.

Do you have an "older version" than that?

Sumerian Zi-ud-sura? There are something like 20 flood myths around the world.
