    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.

    Tower of urok ❤ urok the largest city in sumer
    Sumer is the land of the Anunnaki or watchers
    When king sargon conquered sumer he named it akkadian empire for he was the king of akkad one of the city in sumer,
    When king nebuchadnezzar conquered akkadian empire he named it the great Babylon this was the famous name to the Jews that time when nebuchanezzar conquered Israel ,,,the Jews only familiar on Babylon name ,
    Today sumer is what we called Iraq
    This is also the land of Adam and his children the antideluvian kings of sumer and the land of ziusudra or Noah in Hebrew also the land of Abraham who lives in the city of Ur ,

    Very good initiative and promising film by Table of Gods. Cheer up with that. We'll be alert. _________________________________________
    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

    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.

    I don't know you, and never heard of you or your UA-cam channel. To keep the comment short, I stumble upon your short film.
    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.

    Cant life be just bliss?
    Im sure there is a God,
    At times that makes me feel odd.

    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. 😊
