These Ancient Texts That Say Humans Lived 900 Years Until Gods Stopped Them

10 ancient texts that all describe the same thing: humans living up to 900 years, until something changed. All of them written centuries apart. None of them explaining why the lifespans stopped.

The pattern across all ten is the same. A figure lives centuries, generation after generation, recorded matter-of-factly, no myth-telling flourish. Then a shift happens. A flood, a divine decree, a punishment, a withdrawal of favor. Lifespans drop, sometimes within a single generational line. The texts don't dwell on it. They just move on, as if everyone already understood why.

Ten texts. Ten sudden endings. The same event, described every time.
