Ubara-Tutu

UBARA-TUTU

Quote from Wikipedia:
“The Sumerian King List mentions a character named Ubara-Tutu who seems almost identical to Methuselah. He was the son of En-men-dur-ana the Sumerian Enoch, and king of Sumer until the flood swept over the land. Although their ages are different, their father and their year of death remain the same.” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methuselah 

The Sumerian King List is a document of kings of Sumer before and after the Flood and several extant (original cuneiform tablets from the Sumerian times) texts of such lists have been found.


Ubara-Tutu is also mentioned in the very old extant text from before the Flood found by archaeologists in sites of Sumer - ‘The Instructions of Sharappak’ which also mentions that his grandson was Ziusudra, Sumerian Noah. This fully identifies Ubara-Tutu as the grandfather of Noah, Methuselah. It further supports that Enmendurana is Enoch the father of Methuselah. In the Book of Enoch all three are given as its co-authors. It also verifies the true time when the Book of Enoch was originally authored and ties it historically to the time when the Instructions of Sharappak was written, before during the Fara Period, before the Flood, possibly completed before 2800 BC.
