There is a theory that the Black Sea was created cataclysmically when a natural dam broke holding the waters of the Mediterranean back. This is supposedly the source of the Great Flood myth. The article mentioned some flooded villages. I wonder if they will find any evidence in this regard.

Also, yetis. Okay, zermatism is controversial, but he produced some very good art and sculpture from it.

- Florin_Andrei 9y agoYeah, that's bullshit, sorry.
- joshuaheard 9y agoI believe DNA research has traced human origins down to 50,000 people living in the Levant, near the Black Sea, many thousands of years ago. So, the flood myth later manifested by many cultures could have a common source.
