The story of Noah’s ark and the great flood has remained one of history’s most enduring mysteries. However, the academic community has been shaken by new and unexpected research that has finally revealed the origins of this fascinating story. Using Mesopotamian astronomical texts, Heavenly Flood compares how the biblical flood story evolved from earlier Mesopotamian flood stories and demonstrates that elements of the plot such as the ark, animals, raven, dove, and rainbow were Mesopotamian constellations whose movements in the night sky played out a narrative that would eventually become the story of Noah’s ark and the great flood.For the first time ever, Heavenly Flood makes this research available to the public as we invite you on a fascinating journey of discovery to join the privileged ranks of those who are rediscovering this ancient secret.
