Suspected tomb of Gilgamesh was said to be found in Iraq. Wikileaks email leak of Hillary Clinton's emails under FOIA discovered "Requesting documents pertaining to the resurrection chamber of Gilgamesh, the location of his giant body and the location of the buried Nephilim." America Uncensored has verified this to be fact.

What source the "shar" of An-Shar and Ki-Shar come from? It is similiar to Egyptian "Shu" and actually has a meaning in PIE and Slavic languages meaning "wide" or "spread" or "area" or "grey color" (szeroki, obszar, szary). Wasn't An-Shar added to mesopotamian pantheon after meeting with PIE people some 2700-2300BC? To make it similiar to each other as: Hyperion - Anu and Ouranus - Anshar?

The tree is a bit off. For one, Ninhursag is Marduk's aunt, not mother. Nabu's mother is the daughter of Enoch, Sarpanit. And Enkidu was created by Enki (hence the "Enki" in the name), and not Anu. In Egypt, Marduk is Ra, Enki, Ptah which means Thoth in Egypt is Ningishzida his brother. Oxford does hold a slew of cuneiform tablets available for review with a translation feature on the site for all to peruse, too.

For anyone wondering why some gods have two names, it’s because Mesopotamia wasn’t a place with a unified language. Early on, there were two completely unrelated language families: the Sumerian language family and the East Semitic language family. Whenever possible, this chart highlights the Sumerian name, since that one is earlier recorded. The ones that only have one name are that way either because the names in both are the same or because the god only gained prominence by the time the East Semitic languages began dominating the whole region.

@Ghost Ghost Yes, but the intellectuals are the people who wrote everything, and when they came back they took over ruling the region. They would also have been in charge of the calendar, and dominated the structure and form of their language. So there's that. The dominant language among the common people in much of the Middle East at that time was Aramaic, while the liturgical and priestly language in which most of the scriptures were written was Hebrew.

@Burannu yhea it makes perfect sense for a people who experienced multiple life changing floods that literally washed away the buildings they lived in and destroyed everything they owned would later create a Myth that told the story as a warning to later generations of what could happen if they didn't build strong buildings and keep the rivers under some kind of control. For me that's what most mythology and so religion was created for. To pass down the necessary stories and skills and understanding that people would need to thrive. Only later was it changed to the form we have today and become a static never changing thing. Religions used to change and adapt with the cultures they were needed by but these days they try to change the culture. Obviously the worship of God like beings or religious places and things was another part of religion but the mythology I think came from a need to pass down important information.

I was of the understanding that some of the bricks in the massive wall structure that surrounds Uruk are stamped with the name of Gilgamesh? A wall described in texts that is indeed there! In the end of the epic it tells of the death and and burial of Gilgamesh and how the river was diverted and his tomb built at the bottom of the river and then re-diverted over the tomb. Several years ago ground penetrating radar undertaken at Uruk discovered what seems to be that exact scenario. No further excavation or investigation has officially taken place since, unfortunatly.

Probably because he is full blooded and not half and also was yearning for Enlils power for which later on was spared by King Anu and was exiled to supposedly southern tip of South America for an observatory outpost if i can remember correctly.

@@hightoweriq no Shia Muslims are a mixed bag of arabs Kurds Turkmens etc. Chaldeans and Assyrians they are the oldest indigenous ethnic group of Iraq today. Assyria was centred on the Tigris in Upper Mesopotamia, in modern terms, northern Iraq, northeast Syria, and southeast Turkey. Not the Shias arabs of today. Assyrians are homogeneous Christians and Catholic and their language is the oldest in Middle East oldern than Arabic, they are Semitic the first ethnic group in Iraq the OGS decedents of Assyria empire the. Mesopotamians who never lost their identity, how do you not know your country indigenous ethnicities?

@@mu4281 lol bro relax all the dude said that long live the land of the two rivers...he didn't cast aside ethnic groups nor did he illegitimise them. Would you tell modern day white Americans to fuck right off back to Europe? Because they are not the original ethnic groups who used to live there?... Iraq has a large variety of people of various ethnic backgrounds and heritage...and that, I think that's what makes it special...that is the reason why I'm a proud Iraqi. The rich history, the tales, the gods, the mythology, the first civilization to emerge into this world. Sumer, Akkad, Babylon, Ur These are the Cities that layed foundation to this world. Whether I am an Arabic citizen or another. What difference does it make if we've been living here for at the very least 500 hundred years? Yes people conquer and invade. But why would we hold on to the grudges and conflicts of yesteryear? We're brothers...if not by blood..then by country.

@@staff97 Normally that saying would imply he thinks he would get bored by the video quickly. But it's an ancient history video, so it literally gets to the old stuff very quickly, hence getting "really old, really fast".

Remember the phrase that "this bread is my flesh, this wine is my blood" etc? Well, that's originally from Dumuzid/Tammuz. Dumuzid is Sumerian name while Tammuz is Babylonian, Akkadian and Assyrian name. Tammuz dies and goes to underworld every year in the mid summer, when the rivers recede, plants and ground dies, and barleys are harvested. People cries after Tammuz while handmill grinding the barley into flour, because that is Tammuz they are grinding into flour. So they make bread and that is flesh of Tammuz "bread is my flesh". Fun fact, 5000 years later people still cry after Tammuz in Jerusalem in front of "The Wailing Wall" and I bet they don't know who they're crying for. Another fun fact, the month July is still called "Temmuz (Tammuz)" in Turkey. Another fact is that "Layla & Majnun" love story from 7th century is "Dumuzid & Inanna"s story. In "Nowruz" which is still celebrated every year at spring equinox in Afghanistan, Azerbaijan, India, Iran, Iraq, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Pakistan, Tajikistan, Turkey, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan is basicly celebration of sacred marriage of Dumuzid and Inanna where rain and earth meets, plants grows and gives fruits. It is basicly a new year celebration and it was always celebrated as new year for thousands of years before moving new year to month January 1st. Every folklore and tradition can be traced back to Sumerians.

Actually the fast of Tammuz has got nothing to do with the mesopotamian god. Only the name of the month itself. One can argue a similar demystification happened with the constellations too. It's to do with the destruction of the temples and commemorating the erection of a golden calf (likely in reference to the mesopotamian divine bull that Gilgamesh slays)

And not every folklore can be. The Sumerian tradition shares a common proto Indo-European lineage and coincides with the mass adoption of pastoral farming across much of the world starting around 6000 years ago - predating these stories by at least 2000 years

I've been studying and researching this for the last 8 years.... Every religion, mythology and historical lore human history produced on a global scale - the major stuff anyways - carry the most similarities amongst the Canon of Gods and Goddesses that ruled over humans in the Past. From Enki, to Zeus, to Odin, to Osiris, the list continues.... Through countless hours and years of piecing texts, stories, myths and good ole interpretive reasoning I've slowly begun giving our past a chance at telling the truth as a whole. Enki can be identified with Zeus, somewhat. But so do the stories of biblical figures like Noah. Or Gilgamesh as being the great grandson of Uta-Napishtum(Noah's Babylonian Name). Not to mention the connected cataclysmic event that every culture recorded and adopted. This video helps me a lot. So thank you

Humans even today love to gossip. Mostly real life is boring so they add their own spices and make it interesting by adding old stories they must have heard before. So 75% is reality and 25% is fiction or legend. Now as years go by and in this case thousands of years, these stories further get twisted and a totally new story is born which is 10% fact and 90% fiction / myth. If that story is interesting enough, it becomes religion.

I always thought Zeus was more like Enlil

I like how you mentioned the similarities between the story of Inanna, Dumuzid, and Enkidu, and the story in the Bible of Cain and Abel. But there is another Sumerian story that is similar to both, it's called "Enlil Chooses the Farmer God", which is about two characters called Emesh the shepherd and Enten the farmer.

Every old building, statue or else you see today is meant to be seen by you, slave. All the other buildings you should not see are changed and manipulated or have been destroyed.
