The Epic of Gilgamesh is the oldest surviving story from ancient history, predating works like the Bible, The Iliad, and The Odyssey. It recounts the tale of Gilgamesh, a king of Uruk, and has been celebrated as one of the greatest pieces of early literature, exploring humanity's enduring pursuit of immortality. Originally inscribed on clay tablets in the Sumerian era, this epic continues to resonate as a foundational narrative of human civilization.
