The hero Atrahasis is known by many names. In the twelfth-century B.C.E. Babylonian Epic of Gilgamesh, he is called Utnapishtim. In the Greek Babyloniaka of Berossus, composed in the third century B.C.E., his name is Xisuthros, and the Sumerian god Enki is replaced with the Greek god Kronos. In the Bible, Atrahasis is called Noah, while Enki becomes the Hebrew god Yahweh. In the Quran it is Nuh and Allah.
