In the ancient Babylonian epic of Atrahasis, the Annunaki gods grappled with the consequences of their creation.

As humanity flourished, their numbers swelled, and the incessant noise and activity disturbed the divine realm. Enlil, the chief deity, grew increasingly frustrated with the humans' overpopulation and their disruption of the celestial peace.
To restore balance, the Annunaki first unleashed a series of plagues and famines, hoping to curtail the burgeoning human population. Yet, humanity proved resilient, adapting and surviving each divine assault. Enlil, exasperated, convened the gods and proposed a final, drastic measure: a great flood to cleanse the earth.
Enki, the god of wisdom and a protector of humanity, secretly warned Atrahasis, a pious man favored by the gods. Enki instructed him to build a vast ark, preserving his family and the seeds of life. When the deluge engulfed the world, Atrahasis’ ark weathered the storm, ensuring the continuity of life.
The epic of Atrahasis highlights the Annunaki's struggle with maintaining cosmic order and their drastic measures to achieve it, illustrating their profound impact on the fate of humanity.
