List of characters in Epic of Gilgamesh
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article is a list of characters appearing in the Epic of Gilgamesh, an ancient Mesopotamian epic poem. Its standard version was most likely compiled by Sîn-lēqi-unninni in the Kassite period.[1] Older versions are already known from the Old Babylonian period.[2] Hittite and Hurrian adaptations have been discovered too.[3] However, modern translations and adaptations generally depend on the standard Babylonian edition attributed to Sîn-lēqi-unninni.[4]
