Flooding myths around the world

Caddo
Four monsters grew large and powerful until they were high enough
to touch the sky. One man heard a voice telling him to plant a
hollow reed. He did so, and it quickly grew very big. He, his
wife, and pairs of all good animals entered the reed. Waters rose
to cover everything but the top of the reed and the heads of the
monsters. Turtle destroyed the monsters by digging under them
and uprooting them. The waters subsided, and winds dried the earth.
