Peter flamed the thread multiple times......please describe your interpretation of my claims in your own words....also please describe exactly and specificly what type of evidence you would like? Please be prepared to do your own legwork.

What do you think of this......what if every 3657 years humanity gets nearly wiped out and taken down to cave-man survival level living on a global scale....
and the Survivors realise the importance of recording what happened....a history would be written which could then potentially evolve and be manipulated into becoming one and then many religons.....
each off-shoot keeping core-value components of the source history.....this would mean every cycle of 3657 years would produce many many Flood stories which become myths ......in addition EVERY cycle would produce a similar set of Flood histories which would eventually ripen into myths. ......and anyone doing archeology between these cycles could potentially uncover a Flood record which had been produced any number of 3657 year cycles earlier for these stories and timelines would by proxy overlap forever.
Much evidence exists for the major climate anomaly c. 22oo–2ooo BC. In this paper, we demonstrate that precisely dated Irish bog oaks record this climatic event, which appears to begin abruptly in 22o6 BC and last until around 19oo BC. However, it might be unwise to ignore the precisely dated, abrupt environmental downturn that occurs some 15o years earlier. Irish and English oak tree rings draw attention to a notable decade-long growth downturn spanning 2354 BC to 2345 BC with hints of inundation. Interest in this apparently localised inundation led to the discovery that traditions from around the world preserve stories specifically dated to within 1o years of 235o BC.
If we examine a smoothed mean growth index of six European tree-ring chronologies3 (Fig. 5), we observe a hint of a 37-year cycle of reduced growth, which includes both 2354 BC and 22o6 BC (downturns starting around 239o BC, 2354 BC, 2242 BC, 22o6 BC, 217o BC). Indeed, Fourier analysis of this mean chronology between 245o BC and 18oo BC reveals a strong periodicity with frequency o.o25 +/- o.oo4 yr-1, corresponding to period of ~35–47 years, confirming that such a 37 year cycle is real. This is interesting, in that astronomers have suggested that there currently exists a resonant meteoroid swarm within the broad Taurid meteor complex with an orbital period of ~3.39 years (Asher/Clube 1993). Modelling suggests that this swarm exhibits a series of encounters with Earth, many paired 37 years apart (Asher/Clube 1993, Tab. 3). During such encounters with the resonant swarm, the Earth is hit with a greater number (than in average years) of meteors capable of producing fireballs. If such a swarm existed in the late 3rd millennium BC, with an enhanced population density of large bodies from a recent cometary fragmentation event, Earth may have experienced increased risk of bombardment when the swarm made a close approach. An Earth-crossing comet, or its debris, with an orbital period close to 3.36 years could also giverise to a 37-year cycle of risk to Earth.
Hopefully it is now obvious why this paper on 2354 BC is introduced into a proceedings dedicated to the climate change event in 22oo–2ooo BC? The chronology for the demise of Tell Leilan is well constrained to the end of the 23rd century BC (Arrivabeni 2o12), but there is little doubt that something interesting happened a century and a half
earlier, around 235o BC, on that same site (Courty 1998). Our proposal is that the two may be related. Away from the Near East, not all archaeological chronology is so refined as to allow definitive assignment of archaeological phenomena to one or other of these two episodes. Most chronologies are radiocarbon based and are still under detailed construction.
Yet the scientific community needs to know, in each regionalcase, if observed »change« took place because of a) an extraterrestrial bombardment event in the vicinity of 235o BC orb) a two century climate regime change in 22oo–2ooo BC,
and c) if another cosmic effect occurred close to 22oo BC. Currently most archaeological chronologies in northern Europe
are not sufficiently refined to make such distinctions.One serious problem seems to be that the archaeologicaland ancient historical communities automatically reject suggestionsof extraterrestrial involvement in human affairs.Yet professional astronomers and Earth scientists are comfortablewith the possibilities of bombardment in recentmillennia as possible causes of disruption on the ground.Courty’s soil analysis at Tell Leilan should have been a wakeup call for archaeologists to seek to confirm her findings; the opposite appears to be the case. An open minded approach is needed in the investigation of any and all deposits that span the 24th century BC, and indeed the 23rd to 19th centuries BC, in order to test whether an extraterrestrial hypothesis is tenable to explain the evidence observed in the archaeological record.

You are accepting the timeline fed to us all based on status quo driven dating methods and calenders
.....also you are proceeding as if there were no agreement on there being many types of floods which may seem global to one geographic area....I aknowledge these many floods and their impacts and the stories they generate, I am postulating civilization stunting global floods.
For perspective think of it this way...our humanitarian history is not one long linear path....it is a series of circular 3657 year cycles...complete cycles lain atop one another....many many regional flood evidences/stories of many different magnitudes from many different epochs are overlain and intertwined amidst our geology....but all of these are wiped and buried or exposed every time the earths surface is re-set....I see no way to make an accurate discernment between ages and epochs of all of these flood evidences...

but we can assume their languages stem from the Babel incident as well as the local floods recorded in other places .
