This was fascinating from a historical perspective and a quicker read than I initially expected. I appreciated the introductory essays describing the history of this ancient story. The story itself is interesting but becomes even more so as you consider it in comparison to other mythological stories.

Tamra I was blown away by how the story still resonates - so very human 13mo
Daisey @Tamra I agree; I was surprised by just how personal some aspects were. 13mo

The Sumerians, the pragmatic and gifted people who preceded the Semites in the land first known as Sumer and later as Babylonia, created what was probably the first high civilization in the history of man, spanning the fifth to the second millenniums B.C. #mysteriesbooks #samuelnoahkramer #sumerian #cuneiform #anunnaki #anu #enki #enlil
