From Ovid, book 1

Jupiter angered at the evil ways of humanity. He resolved to destroy it, already set the earth to burning. But he considered that might set heaven itself a fire, so he decided to flood the earth instead. He caused storm and earthquake, With Neptune’s help, to flood everything but the summit of Parnassus, where Deucalion and his wife Pyrrha came by boat and found refuge. Recognizing their piety, Jupiter let them live and withdrew the flood. Deucalion and Pyrrha, at the advice of an oracle, repopulated the world by throwing your mother’s bones behind them. Each stone became a person.
