Biblical prophet, son of Lamech, major figure in the Book of Genesis
A life on the record,
dated by its sources.
Roles, not beliefs
Family
The family of Noah
Parents, consorts and children as the accounts give them. Choose a consort to see the children the stories give the two.
Accounts differ about a god’s family. Where they name different parents, the tree sets them side by side instead of choosing one.
The family as a list · 14
Kinship in an account 14
What this means
Parentage as a named source tells it. Not an independently established biological relationship, and different accounts disagree.
Does not imply an independently established biological relationship · agreement between accounts · marriage as a legal institution · exclusivity, or a single canonical pairing

Connections
How Noah connects
Grouped by the kind of relationship, because a successor is not a son and a shared symbol is not an influence.

What this means
One figure treated as another in some context. Not literal identity in all contexts, and usually a claim by a third party.
Does not imply literal identity in all contexts · that either tradition made the identification

Recorded events and days 3
What this means
Events Wikidata records in a subject’s history, and the day a festival is kept. Not a complete history, and the day a festival falls on is not when it began.
Does not imply that these are all the events in its history · that Wikidata ranks the events by importance
