The reason every culture has a flood story is for two reasons...one is that they have experienced flooding that seemed to "Flood their world". When your world view is limited due to lack of knowledge of the world around you, a large flood can easily be mistaken for a worldwide flood. The other is that they came into contact with other cultures who had a flood myth already and incorporated into their mythos, like the Israelites picking it up from Mesopotamia and the literary classic, Gilgamesh the King...
