Humbaba from the epic of Gilgamesh #billycarson #ancienthistory #knowledge #sumerians | Ancient history

The Epic of Gilgamesh survives on ancient cuneiform tablets written over four thousand years ago. These tablets preserve the story of Gilgamesh and Enkidu, the battle with Humbaba in the Cedar Forest, Ishtar sending the Bull of Heaven, Enkidu’s death, and the search for Utnapishtim after the great flood. Each tablet adds another piece to one of the oldest heroic records on Earth. Which part of the tablets interests you the most? #ancient #mystery #ancientdiscoveries #mythology #fblifestyle | Anc
