The Epic of Gilgamesh (Complete Audiobook, Unabridged) 

MMMMMMMH

I like that quote too.

Part of the reason why my ancestors not at peace due to how they died….these ancient souls have been returning…and they have their swords sharpen for war

I don't agree with that quote. It enables dualism. I'm for unity.

@@nickidaisydandelion4044 sure you would disagree …just maybe you not the one who left the fight unfinished…sure you wouldn’t agree

+Matt Sierra Wouldn't be surprised considering the babylonians conquered King Sargon of Akkad's empire.

Jules CM They did at least get roared at by the spartans in 300.

All Babylonians were Akkadians..... Akkadians were an ethnic group that split into two sub groups, Assyrians and Babylonians.

game is in the 'word' gilGAMEsh. Our Father in Heaven told me to tell the people "the truth is IN the word' and HE showed me jerUSAlem is also jeruSALEM in the last days is now days... = 2nd coming is a repeat of the Bible and why people will say: "this is Biblical" or 'these are biblical times'

@@nettejohnson7492 The ancients not having a single connection with a West Germanic language notwithstanding, Sumerian was an ergative language hinged around an adjunction of syllables. So, if you want to find clever alternate meanings to the name, you better be looking at the alternate senses of "ga" or "me" on a old babylonian dictionary.

It could just be the first trashy magazine and all the good literature was burned by some tyrant

first *KOWN* literature

If someone did it right it really could

@@IPAsAndSunshine I don't think anyone would be brave enough to attempt something like that, too great a story

@@dehjkliproductionse4222 very true. Id personally like to see someone tackle this story by displaying the story we hear compared to the truth it’s describing. For example the portion about slaying the cedar forest demon, is actually about a military conquest. Enkidu is enki of Eridu, a real man, and the great cedar forest is ancient Lebanon/western turkey, and most of what we call Israel today. Those people who dwelt there prayed to a super old very large Cedar tree in the forest center. This is why when they slay the demon they take his “corpse” back and make a tavern archway out of it. It’s not a monster it’s a monstrous tree that people tried their best to hide from foreigners so they wouldn’t attempt to cut it down. That’s what the cloaks are about, they are not magical they are diversions set up by people. People who gilgamesh most certainly had killed. The epic itself tells this story through symbolism. The same can be said about the bill of heaven, which is often depicted as a man wearing golden armor fashioned to look like a bull. It was the flashy armor that did the individual in because of the addition of a leather tail. It would be very cool to see someone tell the story for what it is even overlayed with the truth of the matter. Gilgamesh also isn’t a name it’s a title that means “valley of the sun”. King gilgamesh literally means “king of the valley of the sun”. The whole story is showing how the pursuit of glory will only result in being alone, and unhappy. This fact is what causes him so much desperation at the end of the epic. It would absolutely need to be done right but someone I feel could do it with enough support and talent

Hollywood would probably ruin it

The Black Adam film is depicting Gilgamesh. You would know this if you had the eyes to see.

Stuck in the exoteric mindset.

28:18 and the passages that follow cannot have anything other than a purely esoteric understanding.

isn't this immortality plant he ate more or less the same as in Rig vedas soma? or haoma in zoroastrism ? Or the golden apples of immortality of Idun in northen mythology, Or the golden peaches in chinese mythology? or the ergot rhye drink in greek mythology, or the eucharist in christianity? Or the key of Immortality , the ankh that the pharaos are feeding each other in the hieroglyphs? Perhaps the plant were different in different regions. But the experience of being born again, is something anyone can experience from a psychedelic drug. either you tried it and you know exactly what i talk about. And you haven't and you think i am completly nuts.

The book of Enoch speaks that these demi gods are actually the demons today. Gilgamesh strong as a star. In the bible the stars are the angels. That book is in the time when many angels rebelled against God and made giant children on earth so God made hell for these fallen angels and their sons without forgving them (the reply given to Enoch after they asked for forgiveness) so they started to teach people witchcraft and to make weapons. These sons were very stong, wise and sadistic that they ate people and lived for 500 years and after their death their spirits were and are known as evil spirits or demons today.

@sungirl reloaded Babylon aka Irag was founded by the Samarian in between the Tigris and Euphrates. They called it Eden. Also the word angel comes from the Samarian word Annuakki means messenger. The Epic of Gilgamesh is the oldest story written in the oldest written language. It all roots back to Samaria.

VL VIDEOS I second this. Good to lay back and have some visual cues just to prime the setting.

@HiIamFin It's a poem. They can be just as repetitive today.

Thankfully it's now [insert current year] and this corporate contrived catchphrase has long been dead. Good riddance.

i couldnt stop laughing when enkidu was about to curse that prostitute to be a street hooker with no brothel to work out of just to have his mind changed and then blessed her with dick jewels and a husband. Like wtf yo😭😭😭

The bracelet he has isn’t a watch the symbol on it is an esoteric symbol meaning integrity that goes far back to the cave paintings even. It’s been theorized that cave paintings were a written language the whole world once knew based on the fact that we’re ever you go on earth they repeat the same symbols but something happened and separated the cultures from each other. And ever culture has a flood story so it was probably that and Gilgamesh did clams to know the language before the flood so yeah.

@@mannybear4691 most cave paintings are similar but not the same. they normally represent the animals that they hunted and basic things such as their handprint, or stick figures, which many young children do when they are young even today.

@@RelivingHistory1 there’s more than just pictures cave paintings tend to have words not just stick figures. 20000 years ago there was an ice age and the resulting water level rise caused between 5 and 8% of the earth’s total land mass to be submerged. That taken in to account most civilizations build around costal areas and spread from there every culture in the world has the same myth or story of a global flood that wiped out a more advanced civilization before them with a few survivors afterwards. My guess is the cave paintings are what’s the survivors made and even today if civilization collapsed and a small number of people survived most being people with little to no education in writing or art because there’s not that many great artists or writers today as is. I’m sure the clues they live behind in writing would look like something a child could make 8000 years later. There speculation in the archeology community about how it’s very likely people at one point shared a very common language and writing system based off the cave symbols such as the spiral and zig zag and others because of the manner there used in to try and tell a story with the support of pictures like people or stick men and animals . Also it’s been noted that if the cave paintings are viewed using a torch instead of a flash light it makes them look like they move. And that explains why you see some animals with two heads or six legs. Also the costal area all I’ve the world have proof of advanced stone work such as Atlit Yam that’s probably 9000 years old and Yonaguni monument in Japan some 5000 years old. There was also an underwater city discovered near Cuba in 2001 estates say 5000 years old also Lake Michigan has a stone hinge that’s 9000 years old that’s a big mystery considering most native Americans in North America never developed the ability to make stone structures or even simple metal works and Bimini Road. So most of these structures predate the Sumer Valley by at least 3000 years and they were the “first civilization”

@@mannybear4691 but then how do you explain the fact that almost all of the cave paintings are from 45,000/15,000BC? and again spirals and zig zags are very common drawings in all children, humans have always loved patterns and symmetry, so i would definitely find it hard to believe they represented some magic universal language....I am sure there were civilisations that predated the sumerians, but they are the ones that we have the most information about, because they left us tables filled with their writings, unlike these older civilisations.

imagine writing spoilers for a 5000 year old book
