The Aturyandakumi [Aturyanda, child, devotee, 'yanda' of 'Atur,' 'Kumi,' tale or account] or the Epic of Aturyanda is the tale of the struggle of Aturyanda, King of the antediluvian city of Kathyasundi against the Chaos God, chiefly Lygdamion. The story is set against the greater struggle of the Gods against the Titans and Arch-Dragons and culminates in the Great Flood, with King Aturyanda becoming inextricably involved with the Titanomachy. Traditionalists place the events of the Epic of Aturyanda in the beginning of the 49th century before Saint Salmakhamer in the period of time immediately before the Great Flood or about 14,500 years before the present day. The Aturyandakumi was the seminal work of ancient Kalaman scripture and establishes the validity of Kalama as a classic Flood Survivor Culture.

The story was originally oral until it was recorded in the ancient Kalaman Language and has been translated into many languages, including Midretassene. Most modern-day translations are made from ancient Midretassene rather than from Kalaman. The Kalaman record is not widely available as the Kalaman language is known only to scholars.

The Aturyandakumi is an important component of Jathya-Dhumi cultural and religious beliefs.

The city of Kathyasundi is believed to lie under the waves of the Sea of Flooded Thrones.

Some scholars see a spiritual parallel between the Aturyandakumi and the Woes of Yophenthea, comparing Dantherak Spelúmtomil to King Aturyanda.
