Who is this Gilgamesh anyway? What a curious thing that is, I've tried to read a bit about it and its so complicated that I'm looking for some kind of synopsis to get the gist of what he was about.

Here is what Chatgpt says:

Gilgamesh is a legendary figure from ancient Mesopotamian mythology and literature. He is the main character of the Epic of Gilgamesh, one of the earliest known works of literary fiction in human history. The Epic of Gilgamesh is believed to have been written around 2100 BCE in Sumeria (modern-day Iraq).

Gilgamesh was a historical figure, the king of the Sumerian city-state of Uruk, which is thought to have existed around 2700 BCE. However, over time, his story became intertwined with myth and legend, and he is portrayed as a larger-than-life hero in the epic poem.

The epic tells the story of Gilgamesh's adventures and quests, particularly his journey to seek immortality after the death of his friend Enkidu. Throughout the story, Gilgamesh encounters various mythological creatures and gods and ultimately learns important lessons about mortality, friendship, and the human condition.

The Epic of Gilgamesh is a significant literary and cultural work, providing valuable insights into the beliefs, values, and stories of ancient Mesopotamia. It is also noteworthy for its exploration of themes that continue to be relevant today, such as the quest for meaning and the fear of death.

Well, yeah, basically.

It kinda annoys me that ChatGPT says more or less what I was going to say better than I could have said it.

In a way he really did achieve immortality because thousands of years later we still talk about him.

Maybe its similar to the Illiad and the Oddysey?

I had a teacher who mentioned that Gilgamesh was important.
Anyway, mythology is interesting.

I think I'll check into some of these:

I love gorillas and orangutans and even bonobos.
I love chimps, but those fuckers are just way too dangerous when they get angry.
Chimps are like apes with anger issues.
When a gorilla gets angry its super scary, but they are most of the time gentle creatures.
Monkeys are hit and miss. Some are super aggressive and hierarchical and some are super soft.
I think from ape family I most identify with orangutans.
They are just freaking awesome. They are like these forest dwelling hair apes, hippies.
