The Flood Myth, a widespread motif found in various cultures, recounts a great deluge sent by divine forces to cleanse the earth of its wickedness. In these narratives, a chosen individual or group survives the catastrophic event by building an ark or boat, preserving humanity and animal life for future generations. Notable examples include the biblical story of Noah's Ark, the Epic of Gilgamesh's flood tale, and the Hindu story of Manu. These myths often symbolize themes of renewal, rebirth, and the power of divine justice.
