i agreed. They both originated in the same region, but thats to be expected seeing all ancient writings originated in the mesopotamia
I disagree based upon recent archeology, due to Mohenjo Daro and China, which are at least contemporary, if not predating (see China). Also one must consider Mayan hieroglyphics, which were developed independently.

They would all have the same stories to work from some just embellished them more than others.
The one story that is not embellished or a product of fantasy is that told by the genetic code. The genetic code of all humans clearly shows there was no bottleneck in 2350 BCE.
Mayan writing is unrelated to any old world script, which is clear to anyone not blinded by dogma.
Unless of course you are arguing for Last Thursdayism.
