Question 2
Part B

Which evidence from the text best supports the answer to Part A?

“Even so, almost every culture has its own surprisingly similar flood myth.”

“The people who wrote the Bible were Jewish, and their civilization had been conquered by the Assyrians and Babylonians of Mesopotamia.”

“He was allowed to live forever.”

“Utnapishtim did as he was instructed and filled the boat with valuables, his family and animals of all species.”

Explanation:

The story of Noah and the Ark which carried his family and two of every species in order to protect them from a flood sent by God is thought by some historians to have been influenced by the story of Utnapishtim.

Utnapishtim was chosen by the god Enki to build a giant ship that would protect some people and animals much like Noah was and so it is thought that his story influenced the Jews when they told their story of Noah.

Evidence for this is that the Jews were conquered and exiled to Mesopotamia by the Assyrians and the Babylonians which is the region that Utnapishtim's story originated.
