In ancient mythology‚ all the stories were similarly connected to each other. Two of these stories are the epic of Gilgamesh and the Iliad. In the Gilgamesh story he has to discover everything about himself on a journey. He tries to do great things before going on the true journey so that he would be remembered forever.

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 and
