About five thousand years ago, it seems that a large meteor impacted the Indian Ocean, generating a massive tsunami that would have flooded the region, including Mesopotamia, and also caused weeks of extraordinary rainfall. The meteor left the 18 mile diameter Burckle Crater in the floor of the Indian Ocean. This could be the basis for the story of Noah, with the identification of Mt. Ararat in Iran becoming more plausible.
