Seem to be lots of versions. The one I mentioned is actually a meld of several versions. I just got two others from the library. fun! I am enjoying discovering this story and the information about it. I have now looked at three sources and each has a different set of dates, so I will take it all with a smile. I have heard about Gilgamesh at different times of my life but never checked into it. Now I have time and I am enjoying the discovery. Thanks for the link.
