Legendary civilizations of the past: Lemuria, Atlantis, the states lying at the North and South Poles, in Bahrain - Dilmur, the Kingdom of Mino in Crete. All the amazing civilizations of antiquity, as well as those unknown to us to this day, have one thing in common: they disappeared at the time when the Great Flood came.
In ancient times, people believed that all natural disasters were sent down to them as punishment by the gods. Once the gods molded people from clay, but having lost faith in their creations, they set out to enlighten them.
Probably, through punishment, the gods wanted to correct their own mistakes, choosing a terrible fate for their "children".
We know about many cultures of the past exclusively from ancient legends and mythology. These include giants, dungeon dwellers - dwarfs, elves, gnomes, water girls - mermaids, snakemen - nagas, centaurs - horsemen and many other creatures. There are also animals in mythology - dragons, griffins, unicorns …
And yet, even the found remains of lost cultures cannot convince contemporaries of their former existence. It is safer for us to consider this a figment of the imagination, and there were no other cultures in the world except us.
But even modern man could more than once retreat into the realm of legends.
Already in recent historical times, many misfortunes have befallen humanity, enormous damage has been done to the living world, fortunately people have been able to withstand.

A TEST OF THE GODS?
In 1470 BC. era (according to other sources in 1450) under powerful earthquakes and volcanic eruptions in the Mediterranean, the last island of the former continent of Atlantis disappeared. The bottom of the Red Sea was exposed, which helped the Israelites escape from the persecution of the Egyptians. On the island of Crete, the beautiful palaces of the stately culture have collapsed.
The worst was the explosion of Mount Santorini in the Aegean Sea near Athens. 200 thousand square kilometers were covered with ash and the sun was not visible for several days. It seemed to the inhabitants of the region that the "end of the world" had come, but the clouds dispersed, and the Sun looked out again.
One of the common ways to get rid of people is to dry up fields, depriving people of food. It is known about the strongest drought in Ancient Egypt in 3500 BC. era during the reign of the Pharaoh of the 3rd dynasty. Another great drought of 1708 BC era is mentioned in the Bible, and they all took the lives of people in large numbers.
The highest "fire tube" in Europe, Mount Etna in Italy, spewed lava on people in 1226, 1170, 1149 and 525 BC. era. But most of all human lives were carried away not by powerful volcanic eruptions, but by earthquakes. So in 464 BC. the state of Sparta was completely destroyed. From historical sources, it is known about 20 thousand dead Spartans.
In the history of mankind, information about three Great Floods has been preserved - in 2400, 1760 and 1504 BC. The first Great Flood is described in detail in the Bible. According to the Bible, the beginning of a new humanity comes from Noah's family, but other peoples of the planet have similar legends, so more than one family was saved.
Ogs sent not only natural disasters, but also fatal diseases. Plague epidemics swept the planet in 1200 and 767. BC. It is still not known exactly how many people died.
One of the epidemics lasted about 120 years - from 531 to 650. AD and nobody counted the death of ordinary people. It is known only about the death of the supreme ruler - the consul Sextus Quintilian, his deputy Spurius and almost all senators.
But most of all the troubles were brought to themselves by people themselves, by their ridiculous aggressiveness. Numerous wars, over territories and resources, devastated entire countries and cities.

LEGEND OF THE GREAT FLOOD
A couple of years ago, American researchers William Ryan and Walter Pitman of Columbia University, together with researcher Robert Bollard, explained the origin of the Great Flood scientifically.
As the scientists interpreted the biblical myth and legend about Noah, it is an exaggeration of what happened about 5.5 thousand years BC. the era of overflowing the shores of the Black Sea. As scientists said, then there was a major earthquake, and the waters of the Mediterranean Sea gushing into the Black Sea, raised its level by about 140 meters.
In turn, the waters of the Black Sea, having received an unprecedented replenishment of water, flooded vast territories. And everything else, about a catastrophe of a planetary scale, was thought up by the people themselves, adding up the flood legends.
We can say that for an ancient man who lived apart from communication with other civilizations, such a catastrophe could really seem to be universal and all-consuming. In addition, it should be remembered that over time, the history of the Ecumenical Flood was overgrown with conjectures, and reached our times in a distorted form.
