So I know first-hand that their are accounts of a flood with stricking similarities with the biblical one in cultures in which there is no way they could have been influenced by middle-eastern culture.
One point neither since the Cree nor the Cherokee spoke either English or French, then these myths had to be translated and translated by Christians who would try to convert the native peoples to Christianity.
The most likely case was the added parts about the boat, animals and selected humans were most likely added to the translations.
