Like Noah’s son Japheth was worshipped in Europe as Iapetus (in Greece) and Jupiter (at Rome), so too was he worshipped in India, the creator god of the Hindus Japeti, associated with the global flood which was survived by Manu and his sons Japeti (Japheth), Charma (Ham), and Sharma (Shem), the lead man Manu having been guided by Vishnu which could mean Fish-noah.
