Gilgamesh was a powerful yet cruel dictator in the Bronze Age civilization of Uruk (Babylon). In response to the people’s cries, the gods created a man from nature, Enkidu, who was born in the wild but eventually learned the ways of humanity. He set out to stop the cruelty of Gilgamesh, not knowing that the power of friendship was here to save the day.

You can find the whole tale somewhere on line. I had it saved but lost it in the last crash of my machine. It’s fascinating.

I have been a student of the Epic of Gilgamesh for a few years. The short animated film you have posted is a very good summation of what the story tells. I am however, wondering if you know who the gods were that were petitioned to create Enkidu? That in itself is a fascinating story!
