Why do you think so many of these ancient stories (Gilgamesh, Noah, etc.) have the same themes ideas? What does this say about the state of the world thousands of years ago? What can we learn from these similarities?
I think that all these stories have the same ideas and themes because majority of the stories told back then were not written down. They were told orally so they didn't have much to prove as to what was said. I think by this the state of the world thousands of years ago we still have the same themes and ideas because those are the ones that were used back then. What we can learn from these similarites is that stories from back then still exist today because the majority of the stories that are being told today have the same problems and solutions to them.
I agree with you, the stories have all basicallly the sme things and come from similar main points.
