Moreover, the occurrence of various episodes out of their logical order, and the fact that the text records twice over the creation of swamps and marshes, reeds and trees or forests, animals and cities, indicate that two Sumerian myths have been combined.

The whole of this family, except Sarah Wynne, one of the dairymaids, had gone through the smallpox.
