Gertoux, Gérard (2015). Noah and the Deluge Chronological, Historical and Archaeological Evidence


Ca. 3100 BCE. Noah's family, which was composed of 70 great-grandsons (Gn 10:1-32), dwelt in Shinar (Sumer) where they remained. The Bible does not specify the place but according to the Epic of Gilgamesh (tablet XI), Ziusudra (Noah) dwelled in the city of Shuruppak, which is very likely for the following reasons: 1) this very old city (abandoned after the fall of Ur) was the centre of Sumer and 2) although she had two important administrative structures (É.GAL, É.URU) these didn’t depended on a temple, that situation was an exception in Sumer.
