In the process of its development, our planet has experienced a lot of catastrophes, but most of all has been written and told about the global flood. He is mentioned in the Bible, in Mesopotamian and Greek myths, in the legends of various tribes and peoples.
Official science does not deny the authenticity of these events; archaeologists find the remains of marine life in mountain sediments and uplands. And when excavating ancient cities, shells are found in layers of clay, the skeletons of fish that once inhabited the ocean. All these deposits are called flood layers by archaeologists and anthropologists; such deposits are found on all continents of our planet.
In many ancient legends and chronicles, scientists find such details that they prefer to remain silent about, not knowing how to interpret them. This information concerns the peoples who inhabited the earth before the disaster.
Many descriptions of creatures inhabiting the planet have survived: the tribes of Polynesia mention dwarfs, and giants appear in Biblical texts. But there are references to stranger creatures: Vedic legends describe creatures with snake tails. Researchers argue that a man of the past could not come up with something that he had never seen.
In the Indian Vedas, describing antediluvian events, it is said about the diversity of creatures inhabiting the earth: these are tall, fair-haired giants, and dwarfs, as well as ape-like people. Where does this variety come from?
On this score, the researchers have several assumptions.
The first assumes that before the Flood, alien beings from other star systems lived on earth.

The second version is even more unusual, and its adherents believe that some highly developed civilizations used the Earth as a testing ground for genetic experiments. There are a lot of stories in legends and myths, which talk about encounters with chimeras, people communicated with them and even fought.
It is enough to remember the legend about harpies and hydras. The mythical Griffin has become a heraldic symbol, and the Sphinx personifies wisdom.
Scientists have no consensus. And it is unlikely to appear in the near future. Although each hypothesis has a right to life, write what you think about this version.
