Archaeologists in Iraq believe they may have found the lost tomb of King Gilgamesh – the subject of the oldest “book” in history.
The Epic Of Gilgamesh – written by a Middle Eastern scholar 2,500 years before the birth of Christ – commemorated the life of the ruler of the city of Uruk, from which Iraq gets its name.
Now, a German-led expedition has discovered what is thought to be the entire city of Uruk – including, where the Euphrates once flowed, the last resting place of its famous King.

Good Documentary. Reminds me of the Steven Quayle video back in (around) 2011. Thanks Wes.

Fascinating and supports Talon’s story.

Wasn’t Gilgamesh a giant?
Wes
Gilgamesh was Nimrod

Yes. The bible says Nimrod became a mighty warrior, but never actually states he was Nephilim, who are descendants of fallen angels. Nimrod (AKA ‘Gilgamesh’) was descended from a biblically recorded lineage. Here’s an interesting link:

Interestingly enough Enkidu, while often depicted with horns, is described in the Epic of Gilgamesh as being a giant hairy hominoid with amazing strength and speed. Sounds familiar…

I just want to know why does it look like he just died?

In the age of CGI and Deepfakes, I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t trust anything on video.

Amen, hickory67!

‘2/3 god (small “g”), 1/3 human’. How does that make sense with out supernatural interference?
Lisa H

Have to agree with Mauri G and Hickory 67.

Doesn’t make sense to me that Gilgamesh lived before Noah. I think he wrote about things that had already taken place but just rendered his own version. However, that he became friends with a giant hairy wildman does make some sense but why then are most of the giant hairy wildmen (Sasquatch) over here in the America’s and not in the Middle East?
