  The antediluvian patriarchs and the Sumerian King List
It is suggested that the Sumerian scribe that composed the original antediluvian list had available a document (possibly a clay tablet) containing numerical information on the ages of eight of the patriarchs similar to that of the Genesis record and that he mistakenly interpreted it as being written in the sexagesimal system.
It is not likely that the original antediluvian source he used tried to present the antediluvian kings in such a consecutive way; it seems that the scribe forced this concept of his own in order to conform his new material to the style of the copy of the King List he was adding to.

 MYSTERIOUS WORLD: Summer 2003: Ah Osiria! Part II: Antediluvian Egypt
The archaeological heritage left behind by these antediluvian peoples takes the form of massive, megalithic structures, the term "megalithic" referring to the incredible size of the stones that they had used to construct their temples, palaces and pyramids.
It is these unique structures by which the antediluvian Osirians can be distinguished from their descendants in the region, who built on a much smaller scale with brick and stone of a size miniscule by comparison with the massive monoliths that had been used to construct the world before the Flood.
Many ancient traditions including even the Bible describe the antediluvian world as a place that was populated largely by technologically sophisticated giants who lived only to make war, a world so irretrievably wicked that it had to be totally destroyed by the Great Flood.

 Antediluvian™ Family Tree : MyFonts
The Antediluvian font family represents a modern typeface that is designed in accordance with the ancient world wide Alphabet that existed until approximately 11,500 BC.
The Antediluvian typeface connects to this ancient Alphabet by modifying or replacing those letters of our Roman Alphabet, that no longer correspond to the Ancient Glyph.
This may leave the uninitiated reader puzzled for a moment, but the consistent similarity of most letters with the Roman standard will give the reader enough to go by, and possibly even evoke the subconscious recognition of the more ancient glyphs that unite the written history of mankind.
