The rare but expressive term 'antediluvian patriarch' is literally defined as 'before-the-flood father-figure.' What it typically refers to are the male family-leaders in the Judeo-Christian Bible (for example, Adam and Methuselah) who lived before the great flood which Noah's Ark is said to have survived.
