Enkidu and Gilgamesh

[Lahaine]

The Epic of Gilgamesh is a series of Mesopotamian tales that recount the exploits of Gilgamesh, King of Uruk. The poem below is great I love the brotherhood between Enkidu and Gilgamesh. The book is a quick read and is definitely worth it

No it doesn't they were brothers and they all had their own wives and concubines

The fate anime makes them look like homos. They made enkidu genderless in the anime when he was a strong man in reality

A lot of things we see as gay today weren't considered gay back then, its weird.

What a coincidence I was just learning about the Epic Of Gilgamesh too

Wonder what our ancestors were doing around the time the Epic Of Gilgamesh was made?

It's a good read and a short one. It's crazy how a book from thousands of years ago can still move people

Good question I think they were probably in Sudan. I don't know much about where somalis come from just a guess

I should have given a bit more context, haplogroup T Somalis most likely migrated from that region arriving in North Somalia within the last 2,000 years.
