    Thanks to Ashurbanipal for making copies of the epic in his library at Nineveh. And to the Babylonians and Medes, who burned the library in 612 BC, unaware that they baked the clay tablets and made them more durable.

      Yeah I was wondering why Hollywood will remake the same movie 10 times in 10 years but hasn't done this yet? It's probably for the best there's no way they would be able to do the epic of Gilgamesh well. They can't even adapt comic books well 😂

    Actually, I think it was the irresistible bait that they used to trap Enkidu was the first step in making him human. They said that after laying with the woman for a whole week, he lost his speed and couldn't keep up with the wild animals when he tried to return to them. Then, he developed the thoughts of a man. The other acts of bathing, anointing, clothing and feeding him were steps in making him a more civilized man.
    That's a pretty crucial part of the story.

    Now, the shorts is a good example of the variants that result from hermeneutics, that is, from the interpretation that each person gives to a text, as in this case. In the next opportunity I will share mine, regarding the encounter between Enkidu and Shamhat and the combat between Gilgamesh, Enkidu against the protector of the forests. Another perspective. Thank you for your time. Greetings

    It's very good, I really enjoyed it. You have a talent for story telling. The gift of gab, some might say.
    I'm no stranger to the Epic, I've read it many times but I've never heard it vocally before. Even if it was a condensed telling. The part of story I liked the most was the ending, how you shared your sons reaction to the story.

      sumer were not black. when homo sapiens sapiens left africa in migrationwaves and not turned back to have offspring with black, the migrants in syria , semitic lands like arabia, philistine and eurasia had to adapt to being far away from equator, meaning less direct hot sunshine , shorter days with less daylight, cold and dark winter seasons etc, winters in anatolian iraqi are dark and cold, anatolia /iraq is craddle of modern civilisation, they had to have less melatin in skin, to be able to produce important vitamin D, which is actually an important hormon in body system, we have enough genetic knowledge that the migrants who left african grounds became their own brighter skin ethnic groups. sumer, semitic people, and eurasian were not black enough anymore to call them black. the black nationalistic attitude with own agenda is always bringing disruption into the established genetic evidence.

    Another ancient story prophesying Jesus's sacrifice that brought in the new covenant. I'm assuming the "drinking of beer" to become a man was symbolic for "suffering" and so he had a lot of early suffering that turned him into such a brave man for his age. There is only one true path to eternal happiness, the way. Jesus. 😊
