Many elements of Beowulf date back to the period of the migration of the Anglo-Saxons

    The Epic of Gilgamesh For my essay I chose the question‚ “What does this story teach us about Mesopotamian religion?” A few main points that I will be discussing are: the relationship between humans and gods‚ why humans pray/praise the gods‚ and the understanding of why Gilgamesh could not become immortal and why he was afraid of the afterlife. I chose this question because I felt that the god’s had a major impact on Gilgamesh’s life. For example; Shamash‚ the sun god‚ giving protection to Gilgamesh
