That's literally the main point of the story of Gilgamesh: grief-stricken and having been made conscious of his own mortality after the death of his friend Enkidu, he seeks immortality and ends up knowing that he cannot avoid death and that the only way of "living forever" is by leaving a legacy
@@ch5rry240 wouldn’t know where Gilgamesh himself is referenced, but the part about the flood and the plant of life along with the snake have some close similarities to the Old Testament with Genesis.

When he got to the part describing the flood and realized it was a flood narrative that predated the Book of Genesis, he freaked out so much that he had an epileptic fit and ran around the room screaming and making random noises.

An ancient king that searched for immortality and his wish granted. We can sit and hear his story after more than 4000 years ago. His body gone but his story remains.

Magnifique interprétation ! J'ai pu redécouvrir l'épopée de Gilgamesh grâce à votre version sur livre et traduite en français. La Mésopotamie m'a frappée par sa sagesse et sa poésie. Un grand merci pour votre passion qui irrigue de nouveau les plaines musicales de cette terre littéraire magique.
this is SO underrated, an absolutely incredible retelling of the age old story!! this is my first experience with the tale and I watched it all the way through, it was absolutely hypnotic. your voice is heavenly, and all the musicians are just remarkably talented.

This is so amazing! Epic of Gilgamesh is so fascinating and so is that time and space. There is a reason why we are so drawn to it. Thank you for sharing this!
Wow this story is amazing and very similar to others but with a personal point of view from a Nephilim or hybrid humanoid, I wish it was fully translated because sometimes there was no subtitle when the man was speaking or singing.
Better than all the producers of these days regarding music, society, buildings and many more subjects... Back in time the world seems a better or at least more peaceful place I would like to live in. But we have the internet, that counts for something :)
@@zZzZUPER You forgot to take into account part 1 of my statement. Wasn't aiming on a 1 on 1 which era has the most violence. Modernism is not my thing and I see a lot of issues coming from it these days.
Not only does Peter Pringle sing in a different language, he also sings a completely different version. We don't have the full story of Gilgamesh, and what we have are tablets of different versions through which we have been able to recover several Gilgamesh stories and versions of the same legend. Peter Pringle sings the prologue of "In those days, in those far away days" (yes, the different versions are known either by their first verse or by the way they refer to Gilgamesh) which is the version that was used as lesson in the scribe schools of Nippur and Ur, then you have the version of "He who saw into the Deep" which was recovered by Andrew George and which is the purest, oldest form of the story/poem and therefore is the standard story of Gilgamesh, and I believe there's yet another version titled "He who went to the Underworld" or something like that... And then a myriad of "side" stories about Gilgamesh

Nobody "wrote" this you soulless cretin.
what amazing times. We can sit in our homes and listen to a concert about the origin of humanity from 4000 years ago.
more than 6000 years ago though
Gilgamesh isnt really about the origin of humanity
More than that, Gilgamesh was part of the oral culture of Sumerians and other tribes of Mesopotamia.
It would be more accurate to say the origins of civilization.
@@rodrigofloyd890 The Epic of Gilgamesh dates to about 2100 BC, which makes it 4,100 years old.
gilgamesh may not have achieved immortality, but 3000 years later his great legacy is still remembered
In the same way this kind of comment is becoming immortal it seems, through copy-pasting.
