Okay yeah.
For everyone else, what we're talking about is a theory that the Black Sea has a few points in history where the regions monumental earthquakes caused landslides that blocked(and maybe later cleared, or it cleared naturally) the Bosporus. When it was blocked, the sea swelled and flooded.
However, the Black Sea deluge hypothesis, which is far from a consensus view, would have happened a couple of thousand years before civilization began in Mesopotamia.

The believers in "this created the Ark story" will tell you that it was 2000 years of oral history. Occam's razor tells me that a civilization built between two rivers tends to experience flooding.
