I have heard of this story, even seen the characters recapitulated in other stories, but this is my first time hearing this story, and it is amazing. Elements of this story as small as how magic is used in a battle are still used today in books, movies, and videogames.

Why did they revise the story? This is not the original story. Gilgamesh was bedding the virgin wives on their wedding day. The people were fed up with Gilgamesh and prayed to the God's for help.

Gilgamesh was a black headed one they are not Caucasian. In the epic of Gilgamesh, Gilgamesh grew locs to mourn Enkidu's death. That very tradition is still alive today. The rastafari grow locs to mourn Halie Selassie I and will not cut them until they met him again. The black headed ones also predict the future through animals corpses and africans still do it today.

Visually, this is a nice production of arguably the oldest story of civilization. However, the captions need *LOTS* of work! There are so many misspellings and mistaken homonyms in place of the actual transcript words. This happens quite often with AI-generated captions which are never checked by a human reader. Please update and correct the captions!!

You are very right, the translation feature malfunctioned this time around and also the QA clearly failed. We have decided against putting the subtitles for now. In our other videos for now we have stopped hardcoding the subtitles. We may add the SRT files later.

This is not the Epic of Gilgamesh. It is a high-level overview of the plot of that epic, viewed from a thoroughly modern perspective that would have completely mystified the ancient mesopotamians who wrote and preserved the epic for thousands of years.

@oldentales Gilgamesh lived in a land that you could walk in 10 days. And his best friend was killed by a lion. He sorrowed for the rest of his life and wanted to mean something. He had temples built for traders whom travelled on the trading routes . The Phoenicians left things they liked in the temples. That is why Gilgamesh is displayed as a big man with a lion. Ehm statues of him. I see multiple stories of Gilgamesh, I don't know why they make up things.. if they want to tell a story then why use the name and title of another (his)story ???

Uhm … While I think you have made a pretty fascinating presentation both visually and orally … you have taken an awful lot of “liberties” in fleshing out an already stunning piece of “romanticized history”. I have studied this tale for decades and many period pieces of the same time trying to work out its historical aspect outside of being simply a “story” but I have been stymied as things of this antiquity often lack supporting evidence. The Sumerian form of record keeping, cuneiform on mud/clay tablets, has proven to be unsurpassed in durability but, I think, this tale possibly predates cuneiform tablets and is more a Legend of a more distant past that was finally written down. Of course, this is simply my best guess / opinion.
@oldentales8 күн бұрын
Thank you very much for your informative comment. Considering that even today in global south most of the stories travel by word of mouth, until they are finally written down, it is not unfair to extrapolate that that would have been the case with the story of Gilgamesh as well. We are trying to work an updated version which is more close to the original text, would be you kind to give us some pointers or point us in the direction or resources where we can get some more historically accurate information?

Oldest story ever written is the Ramayana a 26,000 verse poem. 26,000 verses match the 26,000 year Precession of the Equinoxes. Do some real research. Gilgamesh was written millennia after the Ramayana.
@oldentales8 күн бұрын
It might very well be the case, but Gilgamesh is the one that the archeologist have found in writing. Ramayan could have been written much before Gilgamesh, but the oldest written form that has been found is Gilgamesh as per our research. However if you can give us a link, we would definitely like to learn more about the issue.

Just Google Nilesh Oak and read his book the Real Rama where he dates the Ramayana using Astroarchaeology on Asterisms heavily used in the text plus hydrology on the diversion of rivers in the text like the Indus and the Yamna. There are also countless botanical references in the text related to the Indian Subcontinent then and now.. There are many talks by Nilesh plus many interviews where explains in detail whet he found and what scientific disciplines he applied to both the Ramayana and the Mahabharata wars. Happy to chat about it i read Gilgamesh 50 years ago and countless references to it since then. I also bought the three volume set of Valmiki’s Ramayana 50 years ago. I have always. been very interested in our deep history. I have just spent the past 24 years engaged in a global Petroglyph GPS Survey under Dr Anthony L. Peratt senior plasma physicist at Los Alamos National Labs. With a 200 strong team we recorded hundreds of millions of petroglyphs from every latitude and longitude where people were present to record very large Miyake Solar extinction driving storms of the past 50,000 years. In the Ramayana Book III the 23 chapter titled Rama Sees Omens he perfectly described a Solar Super Storm in great detail only known like that in the past few decades. It is a remarkable proof of authenticity of the text as we now know what Rama describes to his brother Lakshman is a perfect description of what we can expect atnthe peak of the current Laschamp-Heinrich event double act we are now reaching the peak of. This is why the US Dept of Energy funded the Global Petroglyph survey which ran for quarter of a century. The above is how i know for sure the Ramayana is real. Anyhow youtube Nilesh Oak on the Ramayana. There is plenty of material available for you to immerse your self in. Of particular interest is the four part ‘Sugriva’s Atlas’ which perfectly describes the Palaeolithic Ice Age World. Once you read this it will become plainly evident Valmiki’s epic is true and accurate. Cheers john
