Flooding myths around the world

Palau Isles
Before humans, one of the Kaliths (deities) visited an unfriendly
village and was killed by its inhabitants. His friends, searching
for him, were met with unkindness except from the woman Milathk,
who told them of the death. They resolved vengeance by flooding
the village, and suggested Milathk save herself on a raft. Milathk
perished in the flood, but was recalled to life and became the
mother of mankind.
