The Bible and Gilgamesh Flood Stories
The Flood story in gilgamesh is very similar to the bible flood story because all the events happen in both stories but just a little tweeked and replaced with like a different type of bird that moses sent to look for vegitation and the bird Utnaptishim let out. In the Bible version there was a man name Moses and in the Gilgamesh Story there was another old man that had the same roles as moses but was named different. There were all the same major ideas in each but told by different perspectives.
