Sumerian Records Describe the Fire That Erased Sodom and Gomorrah | History for Sleep

Описание: Long before the Bible was written, the Sumerian tablets described a cataclysm — a fire from the sky that erased two cities in a single day.
Their names were different, their gods were many, but the story feels hauntingly familiar: a place destroyed for its corruption, under flames not of war but of heaven.

In this softly spoken History for Sleep documentary, we explore the parallels between the Sumerian destruction myths and the later tale of Sodom and Gomorrah.
Could both describe the same event — a celestial fire that scorched the land and changed history forever?

Told in a calm, reflective tone, this episode blends archaeology, mythology, and ancient astronomy, guiding you through the silence left by civilizations that once stood where deserts now sleep.
