Mission: Stomp on the same ground as the literary hero Gilgamesh (JULIE IN IRAQ)

In this episode, I started my journey in Hilla, a city neighboring Babylon, with the goal of walking on the same ground as Gilgamesh, a Babylonian ruler I had studied previously. However, during my visit to the old Babylon City, I learned that Gilgamesh was actually a Sumerian leader who ruled Uruk, not Babylon. This realization prompted me to head to Uruk, a small town 150 kilometers away, to continue exploring. The night before my trip, I visited one of Saddam's abandoned palaces and celebrated a delightful Thanksgiving with my newfound friends. The following day, I embarked on my journey to Uruk, where I explored the ancient ruins and completed my mission for this episode.

Jolly The age of the city of Babylon is not 4000 years, but rather it is more than 5000 years old, meaning that it is 5000 years or more and it has the following civilizations: Akkadian, Amorian, Hittite, Kishite, Assyrian, Chaldean, Achaemenid, Hellenistic, Parthian, Sasanian.
