12 800 BP to 11 600 BP = 10 851 BC to 9651 BC.

What does this mean? First in terms of real, Biblical chronology:

Beginning:

2634 BC

37.009 pmC, dated as 10,851 BC

End between:

2621 BC

40.229 pmC, dated as 10,148 BC

2608 BC

43.443 pmC, 9500 BC*

Weighted medium (3:1), here:

(2621 + 2608 + 2608 + 2608) / 4 = 2611.25

(40.229 + 43.443 + 43.443 + 43.443) / 4 = 42.6395

Carbon** year:

5730 * log(0.426395) / log(0.5) + 2611.25 = 9658 BC

So, 10 851 to 9658 BC in carbon years are in reality 2634 to 2611 BC, 23 years. I'm not sure about you, but to me this seems like a sudden impact.

As to the megafauna, Nimrod had already been hunting that. It hadn't had that long time since the Deluge to spread, 2957 to 2634 is 323 years. The impact and black mat could have been God's punishment for a sin of his, or one he made himself coresponsible of.

Let's cite Josephus, Antiquities, Book I, chapter 4, second paragraph:

Now it was Nimrod who excited them to such an affront and contempt of God. He was the grandson of Ham, the son of Noah, a bold man, and of great strength of hand. He persuaded them not to ascribe it to God, as if it was through his means they were happy, but to believe that it was their own courage which procured that happiness. He also gradually changed the government into tyranny, seeing no other way of turning men from the fear of God, but to bring them into a constant dependence on his power. He also said he would be revenged on God, if he should have a mind to drown the world again; for that he would build a tower too high for the waters to be able to reach! and that he would avenge himself on God for destroying their forefathers!

"He also said he would be revenged on God" ... not just revenged, perhaps ... "if he should have a mind to drown the world again;" ... words, I think, that may have sounded more credible and urgent after the Younger Dryas Impact.

I would say, Babel began as kind of a Civilisation of Love, but one cut off from God.
