Yes.
What's interesting is that although in both this story and the Cain & Abel story farming wins out, the value judgements are different. In this Sumerian myth, grain is to be revered; whereas Cain (the farmer) is reviled.
Perhaps that reflects that these two cultures experienced the same struggle from different sides.
