Biblical flood myth

A story,
as each source
tells it.

Time within the story

Overview

From Wikipedia, quoted unmodified under CC BY-SA 4.0; the article’s history is its list of authors.

Told in

The texts that tell it

Each text tells it its own way, with its own date. None is merged into another.

What this means

A story is a group of accounts. Each carries its own source, its own cast and its own relationships, and where two disagree both stand. The texts above are works whose records say the story appears in them or is part of them; each date is the text’s own, on the source clock, never the date of the story. Account-level readings — a locator such as “Hesiod, Theogony 886–900”, with that account’s own cast and relationships — are not held yet: 0. The structured data this site imports records stories as subjects and has no equivalent of a narrative account. When accounts are added, reading one will change only the relationships that account asserts. Nothing will be deleted to make them agree.

Connections

How Genesis flood narrative connects

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

Affiliation 2

What this means

Association with a tradition or school. Traditions branch, overlap and re-merge; this is not a clean single-origin tree.

Does not imply a closed canon · the same status in every branch

Recorded events and days 2

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
