No, no evidence of a global flood anywhere. And the arguments that maybe mounts where on 1/10th the size back then kinda makes a mockery of plate tectonics. In fact the testament talks of a mountain "high enough to survey all creation" alah flat Earth, so if anything maybe mountains where larger 4,000 years ago then they were today! Too a global flood would leave a clear signature at the approriate depth of ice in the polar cap. You'd have a lot of changed chemistry if you flooded the Earth for a year; for one you'd have a massive swamp and alot of dying and decaying vegetable matter releasing gases that you'd easily spot trapped in the ice at that depth. Sorry but its all normal during those periods. And China had no major distruption too its dynasties back then either.
Folk back then simply substituting 'global' for 'large regional' back then is a more likely assumption and explanation.
All these considerations and analysis do is redefine the boundaries of where does the known and unknown lie. The final answer is still up for grabs!
