Subtitle: An Old Babylonian Version
Author: Morris Jastrow and Albert T. Clay
This epic poem is the oldest known in history, predating Homer’s Iliadby about 1500 years. Gilgamesh, the hero, discovers he has godly blood so sets out on a journey to the land of the gods in an attempt to gain entry. It is an ancient Sumerian tale from Mesopotamia. An important work for those studying ancient literature, history and mythology. This Babylonian version may be the oldest. Later renditions embellish the story, so this work is important for researchers. It is also an interesting and enjoyable tale.
